The Green Knight (But It's Gay)
Niall Moorjani

Tuesday July 15th, 7.30pm

Join award winning and critically acclaimed storyteller Niall Moorjani for their fantastical, queer and hilarious take on the medieval classic The Green Knight. It’s a version in which they make sub text-text! We'll give you a clue, it’s gay.

​

Follow the story of Sir Gawain and his adventures, all started by the peer-pressured, unfortunate and unsuccessful chopping off of The Green Knight's head. Now Gawain is going to get his head chopped off in return by the miraculously still alive green knight. Disaster. King Arthur reckons this will be grand as Gawain needs to do more manly things anyway and there is nothing more manly than taking a good head chop off. The Green Knight But It's Gay brings this Arthurian classic excellently brought into the modern world with deep love for the original text. 

Tickets: £12

Pride and Prejudice
Illyria Theatre Company

Sunday September 21th, 6.30pm

With her tongue firmly in her cheek, Jane Austen tells us “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.” Mrs Bennet certainly thinks so.

So when Mr Bingley – single, young, handsome, and with £5000 a year – moves into nearby Netherfield Park, she devotes all her energy to contriving for Jane, the eldest of her five daughters, to meet him during rural Hertfordshire’s whirlwind of social balls. But even Mrs Bennet draws the line at Mr Bingley’s disdainful friend Mr Darcy despite his whopping £10,000 a year. Thank heavens Lizzy, her second daughter, finds him detestable too! Or does she…? Can she see beyond his pride – and could he overcome her prejudice – to consider a possible future together? Following seven sell-out seasons of this sparkling adaptation, award- winning Illyria returns to celebrate Jane Austen’s 250th birthday in style. 

Running time: 140-minutes (approximately), including a 20-minute interval.

Suitable for all ages.

Tickets: £12, under 16s £10
