Revenge After The Levoyah
- Jewish Essex. One funeral. Two twins. And a 80-year-old ex-gangster with a plan that’s absolutely meshugge.
Malcolm Spivak’s had enough. He corners twins Dan and Lauren, fresh from their grandfather's funeral, with a proposition: help him kidnap Jeremy Corbyn. Yes, really. What follows is a chaotic Jewish heist comedy that blends madcap comedy and biting political satire.
Following two sell-out runs at The Yard Theatre in 2025, and Edinburgh Fringe (Summerhall) in 2024 Nick Cassenbaum’s (Fringe First winner and Popcorn Writer's Award nominee) explosive five star show, directed by Emma Jude Harris (Stage's Fringe Five 2024), tears through antisemitism in the diaspora, the dangers of collective hysteria, and how far you can throw a jar of chraine from a moving vehicle.
Written by Nick Cassenbaum
Directed by Emma Jude Harris
'In one cathartic hour and with two pitch-perfect performances directed by Emma Jude Harris, any residual Jewish anxiety from one of the darkest periods for the community evaporates.' ★★★★★ Jewish Chronicle
'Wickedly irreverent when it needs to be and raw and deeply impactful when necessary.' ★★★★★ Theatre Weekly
'A brilliantly perceptive but brutally unforgiving show that dares to tackle pitch-black subjects with fiery humour.' ★★★★★ The Arts Desk
'Proving the four corners of the sky are the only limits for what is possible on stage.★★★★★ Plays To See
'A frenzied hilarious treat for the imagination.' ★★★★★ The Scotsman
Suitable for ages 16+ years

Duck
It’s the summer of 2005, England prepare to win the Ashes and Ismail (Smiley to his friends), a British south Asian schoolboy, is about to become the youngest-ever player in his elite public school’s First XI cricket team.
He sets his sights on immortality, breaking the school batting record and getting his name into Wisden. But things are about to heat up.
From award-winning playwright maatin, Duck is about adolescence, the pressures of sporting competition and finding your identity in an environment that doesn’t cater for difference.

Align and Flow Yoga
Led by Deborah Le Vene-Page
Align and Flow Yoga is influenced by the biomechanics and heart orientated philosophy of the Anusara Hatha style of yoga. With a specific alignment focus within the flow of postures the practice will tone and strengthen the body, improve posture and create more freedom in the body and mind resulting in a calm and relaxed state of being.
Each week there will be a different theme weaving its’ way through the session, but a typical class starts with breathing techniques to centre and ground, poses to warm up and then progresses to a fun and challenging mix of vinyasa and alignment yoga.
This class is designed to cultivate focus, stamina, strength, and flexibility. Leaving time at the end for a well-deserved relaxation.
Come prepared for an energising class that will also leave you feeling relaxed.
Age guidance: 18+ years
