A reformation of Henrik Isbin's 1890 Norwegian script Hedda Gabler, after the timely arrival of Hedda's friend and former lover, Hedda hatches a plan to escape her boring marriage. Hedda brought to you by This One Show and performed by two fantastic Norwegian actors.

The Little Mermaid

Roll over Disney and Hans Christian Andersen - The Little Mermaid is a tale of people floating, bobbing, drowning in their own bleak seas. Far out in the ocean it's very, very deep.

The Boat Goes Over the Mountain
10 - 28 September
In the jungles of Peru a man recounts the nine testing ayahuasca ceremonies. It's time for the ceremony, but if the medicine that will cure you will also turn you inside out - will you drink it? Always know where your bucket is, and please keep your hands inside the carriage - the boat goes over the mountain.

Broken Colour
17 September - 5 October
A melting pot of creativity and madness, blurring the lines between the sane and the not. Psychiatrist Gareth and his wife Olivia's marriage is on shaky ground. But the entrance of disturbing, yet illuminating patient, Eliza brings with it the deterioration of Gareth's grip on reality.

Trampoline
