SUMMARY:Welcome to The ForEm
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to The ForEm – Part fête. Part exhibition. Part experiment. \nThe ForEm asks deceptively simple questions: \nWhat makes Frome\, Frome? And who gets to decide what comes next? \nThe ForEm invites people to explore the stories they tell about the town: its independence\, creativity and community spirit\, and also its challenges\, contradictions and changing identities. Expect performances\, films\, artworks\, games\, community stories and a warm invitation to question ways of thinking\, feeling\, dreaming\, sensing – and making sense – of the town we share. \nThe ForEm is the commissioned work of Frome-based artist Kate Keara Pelen\, developed through her collaboration with the University of Glasgow’s Civic Imaginary Partnerships research project. It turns a year of research into a space for the town to play with\, challenge and add to what we have found. \nFree performances: \nTom Spencer will guide an unconventional gallery tour through the artefacts\, stories\, myths and characters of the town. \nMartin Scott – bringing together Town Crier\, Cheese Lord and long-time observer of Frome life – will invite audiences to spin the wheel of Frome Roulette\, triggering different stories about the town’s civic tribes\, traditions and archetypes. \nPlus: \nThe Community Loom designed by Claire Orpin and Tamara Jones. \nFilms made by Frome residents through the community film project led by Dr John Sealey of Fabian’s Films (shown on a loop in the gallery all day and an official screening and Q&A between 5-6pm) \nDrop in\, disagree\, contribute\, play. \nhttps://civicimaginaries.gla.ac.uk/welcome-to-the-forem/

SUMMARY:The Royal Ballet: Manon
DESCRIPTION:*Screened Performance* \nIn the seedy underbelly of 18th-century Paris\, money is king. Nothing is sacred – even love itself can be bought for the right price. A native of this hedonistic underworld\, Manon is caught between twin desires when she falls in love with the student Des Grieux. Steadfast and devoted\, he offers the possibility of an honourable life. Yet\, the riches promised by the world of Parisian society remain tempting… \nManon’s inner turmoil and struggle for survival lie at the devastating heart of Kenneth MacMillan’s 1974 adaptation of Abbé Prévost’s novel. In this signature work of The Royal Ballet\, MacMillan’s nuanced understanding of human psychology makes for an unflinching look into the moral degradation of Manon’s Paris\, while all its decadence and decay are brought to life through Jules Massenet’s score and Nicholas Georgiadis’s designs. \nRunning Time: 190 minutes\, two intervals\nTickets: £18\nFriends of Merlin: £15

SUMMARY:Giant - the Play
DESCRIPTION:*Screened Performance* \nGIANT – The Play\nDirector: Nicholas Hytner \nGIANT\, the 5-star critically acclaimed play starring John Lithgow (Killers of the Flower Moon\, The Crown) as Roald Dahl\, comes to the big screen. \nWinner of 3 Olivier Awards® including Best Play and a Tony Award® for Best Actor in a Play (John Lithgow)\, the production was filmed live in London’s West End ahead of its sold-out Broadway run. The stellar cast includes Aya Cash (The Boys\, The Franchise\, You’re the Worst)\, Elliot Levey (Cold War\, Patriots\, Good) and Rachael Stirling (The Divine Mrs S). \nA world-famous children’s author under threat. A battle of wills in the wake of scandal. And one chance to make amends…It’s the summer of 1983\, The Witches is about to hit the shelves and Roald Dahl is making last-minute edits. But the outcry at his recent\, explicitly antisemitic article won’t die down. Across a single afternoon at his family home\, and rocked by an unexpectedly explosive confrontation\, Dahl is forced to choose: make a public apology or risk his name and reputation. \nInspired by real events\, GIANT explores with dark humour the difference between considered opinion and dangerous rhetoric offering a complicated portrait of a fiendishly charismatic icon. \nTickets: Adults £18 Friends £15

SUMMARY:The Royal Opera: Così Fan Tutte
DESCRIPTION:*Screened Performance* \nSpurred on by a bet\, two young men hatch a plan to test the fidelity of their girlfriends. What follows is a slippery game of seduction and power\, the four lovers plunging into a dizzying world of shifting reality\, where truth becomes increasingly unstable. \nCosì fan tutte has lost none of its sting since it first scandalised audiences in 1790. In her Main Stage debut\, Netia Jones\, Associate Director of The Royal Opera\, reimagines Mozart’s comedy of manners through a sharp contemporary lens\, where 18th-century romantic trickery meets deeply satirical high-tech deceit. Taking on the roles of the lovers is an exciting young cast led by Louise Alder\, Simone McIntosh\, Mingjie Lei and Huw Montague Rendall\, with Gerald Finley as their manipulative game-master Don Alfonso and Emily Pogorelc as Despina.

SUMMARY:The Royal Ballet: Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
DESCRIPTION:*Screened Performance* \nAt a garden party on a sunny afternoon\, Alice is surprised to see her parents’ friend Lewis Carroll transform into a white rabbit. When she follows him down a rabbit hole\, events become curiouser and curiouser…As Alice journeys through Wonderland\, she encounters countless strange creatures. She’s swept off her feet by the charming Knave of Hearts\, who’s on the run for stealing the tarts. Confusion piles upon confusion. Then Alice wakes with a start. Was it all a daydream? \nChristopher Wheeldon’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland burst onto the stage in 2011 in an explosion of colour\, stage magic and inventive\, sophisticated choreography. Joby Talbot’s score combines contemporary soundworlds with sweeping melodies that gesture to ballet scores of the 19th century. Bob Crowley’s wildly imaginative\, eye-popping designs draw on everything from puppetry to projections to make Wonderland wonderfully real. The result shows The Royal Ballet at its best\, bringing together world-class dance with enchanting family entertainment and ingenious music and design. \nRunning Time: 170 minutes\, two intervals\nTickets: £18\nFriends of Merlin: £15 \nBOOK TICKETS
