Dir: Barry Jenkins 2024 | 119 mins

Exploring the unlikely rise of the beloved king of the Pride Lands. Rafiki shares the legend of Mufasa to young lion cub Kiara, daughter of Simba and Nala, with Timon and Pumbaa lending their signature schtick.

Told in flashbacks, the story introduces Mufasa as an orphaned cub, lost and alone until he meets a sympathetic lion named Taka - the heir to a royal bloodline. Their chance meeting sets in motion an expansive journey of an extraordinary group of misfits searching for their destiny - their bonds will be tested as they work together to evade a threatening and deadly foe.

Dir: Michael Morris 2024 | 130 mins

Bridget is alone once again, widowed four years ago. She’s now a single mother to 9-year-old Billy and 4-year-old Mabel.

She finds herself pressured by her Urban Family - Shazzer, Jude and Tom, her work colleague Miranda, her mother and her gynecologist Dr Rawlings (Emma Thompson) - to forge a new path toward life and love. Bridget goes back to work and even tries out the dating apps, where she’s soon pursued by a dreamy and enthusiastic younger man (Leo Woodall).

Now juggling work, home and romance, Bridget grapples with the judgment of the perfect mums at school, worries about Billy as he struggles with the absence of his father, and engages in a series of awkward interactions with her son’s rational-to-a-fault science teacher (Chiwetel Ejiofor).

'Renée Zellweger’s Bridget faces new challenges in parenting and love, but it’s the familiar faces around her who deliver heart and humour in this unexpectedly poignant fourth outing' ★★★★ The Guardian

Presented by Fun Guy Productions.

After a world-shattering break up, a man with many questions finds The Society for New Cuisine, a group who seem to have all the answers. But what must he sacrifice to feel truly whole?

The Substance meets Woman in Black in this debut play from East-Asian writer and performer Chris Fung (Your Lie in April, Frozen, Cyrano de Bergerac: West End, Evita: Regent’s Park). Directed by Rupert Hands (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Palladium; Sunset Blvd, Savoy / Broadway).

A deliciously twisted Buddhist inspired folk fable about power, masculinity and heartbreak which took Edinburgh Fringe by storm last summer, now making its much anticipated London debut.

What would you give for a taste of new understanding?

Presented by Fun Guy Theatre.

‘Fung’s masterful debut marks him out as one to watch. Dark, sharp and delicious. There is now absolutely an appetite for whatever he serves up next’ The Scotsman

‘Ambitious. Very, very impressive. The play’s many invoked images and its haunting ending continue to linger' Fringe Review

‘A powerful and clever work. This incredibly deep narrative enthralls the audience. We expect big things in the future’ Starburst Magazine

‘Clever, dark and fascinating. 5 stars’ Theatre and Arts Review

‘Poetic and profound' Henry Longstaff Reviews
