SUMMARY:Marcus Brigstocke: Vitruvian Mango
DESCRIPTION:What are men for? Most heavy things can be lifted by machines and most problems can be solved by computers and most puddles can be crossed without us gallantly draping our capes over them – so are we fellas of any use at all? \nAward winning MAN Marcus Brigstocke thinks we might still serve some useful function. But what is it? This new tour show will resolve the entire issue once and for all (in a non-patriarchal\, open minded\, progressive sort of way). \nDaVinci’s Vitruvian Man is the image of the ideal male form. Marcus’ Vitruvian Mango is the same\, but sweeter\, softer\, seasonally available and\, when ripe\, delicately perfumed

SUMMARY:Emma Rice Company: Blue Beard
DESCRIPTION:Blue Beard the Magician makes hearts flutter and pupils dilate. With a wink\, a stroke and a flick – things just seem to vanish. Cards\, coins\, scarves… and women. \nPuff! Gone. Without a trace. \nHe meets his match when his young bride discovers his dark and murderous secret. She summons all her rage\, all her smarts and all her sisters to bring the curtain down on his tyrannous reign. \nEmma Rice brings her own brand of theatrical wonder to this most beguiling and disturbing of tales. With her signature sleight of hand\, Blue Beard explores curiosity and consent\, violence and vengeance – all through an intoxicating lens of music\, wit and tender truth. \nThanks to the Emma Rice Company for allowing us to screen Blue Beard to mark International Women’s Day 2026.

SUMMARY:Royal Ballet: Giselle
DESCRIPTION:The peasant girl Giselle has fallen in love with Albrecht. When she discovers that he is actually a nobleman promised to another\, she kills herself in despair. Her spirit joins the Wilis: the vengeful ghosts of women hell-bent on killing any man who crosses their path in a dance to the death. Wracked with guilt\, Albrecht visits Giselle’s grave\, where he must face the Wilis – and Giselle’s ghost. \nPeter Wright’s 1985 production of this quintessential Romantic ballet is a classic of The Royal Ballet repertory. Set to Adolphe Adam’s evocative score and with atmospheric designs by John Macfarlane\, Giselle conjures up the earthly and otherworldly realms in a tale of love\, betrayal and redemption.

SUMMARY:Power Film: Power Station
DESCRIPTION:POWER STATION is a bold\, funny and heartwarming documentary about what happens when neighbours come together to take power – quite literally – into their own hands. Set in Walthamstow\, the film follows artists Hilary Powell and Dan Edelstyn as they attempt to turn their street into a solar-powered energy station\, kickstarting a grassroots energy revolution inspired by lockdown mutual aid. \nDirected by the duo\, the film captures a turbulent journey filled with big ideas\, setbacks and unexpected moments of joy – from rooftop campouts and community meetings to fundraising challenges and a surprise bid for a Christmas number one single. At its heart\, POWER STATION is a celebration of local action\, shared ambition and the belief that change can start right outside your front door. \nFollowing the screening\, audiences are invited to stay for a Q&A panel exploring the themes of the film and what community energy\, creativity and collaboration could look like in Frome. \nMatt Mellen\, Climate Action Lead at Frome Town Council\, said: “POWER STATION captures something really special – the moment when ordinary people decide to work together and imagine something better. Frome has a proud history of community-led action\, and this film is a timely reminder of how imagination and collective effort can help shape a more sustainable future.” \nThis event forms part of Frome Town Council’s ongoing commitment to supporting community-led responses to the climate and ecological emergency\, while creating welcoming spaces for conversation\, inspiration and connection.

SUMMARY:NT Live: The Audience
DESCRIPTION:Returning to cinemas for the first time in over a decade\, Helen Mirren plays Queen Elizabeth II in the Olivier and Tony Award®-winning hit production\, directed by Stephen Daldry. \nFor 60 years\, Queen Elizabeth II met with each of her 12 prime ministers in a private weekly meeting. This meeting is known as The Audience. From Winston Churchill to Margaret Thatcher and David Cameron\, the Queen advised her prime ministers on matters both public and personal. Through these private audiences\, we see glimpses of the woman behind the crown and witness the moments that shaped a monarch. \nPeter Morgan’s Netflix phenomenon The Crown was based on this hit play that was captured live from London’s West End in 2013 and went on to become one of the most-watched NT Live productions.
