Scenes with Girls
3-13 December 2025​
Scenes with Girls is a love story, but not the kind you might expect. Tosh and Lou, 20-something best friends and housemates, are inseparably devoted to each other. Together, they navigate a world filled with romantic ideals and sexual expectations, all while remaining fiercely determined to carve out their own path-even if it means stumbling along the way and sometimes hurting themselves and others in the process.
​
Unfiltered, brazenly funny and often uncomfortably flawed, Battye has written a delightfully sharp study of millennial sexual politics and all-encompassing female friendships. Broad City meets Fleabag, with hints of a much grittier Sex and the City, Scenes with Girls will particularly resonate with those still navigating the messy realities of sexual exploration and the complexities of sharehouse life.

​Tracy Crisp's annual,** one-night-only,*** world-famous,**** live Christmas letter reading. With a special appearance by her beautiful friend, Maggie McGinty.
Remember when we used to send Christmas cards to each other, displaying them on strings of tinsel? And remember that friend who used to include a letter which would always begin, 'I can't believe it's been a year...'
​
A light-hearted night filled with fairy lights and friends.
*Adrian asked, 'Are you doing that Christmas show again?'
**Four years in a row! Maybe it is annual?

Winner of the Tony and the Drama Desk Awards for Best Book, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee follows an eclectic group of six mid-pubescents that vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime.
While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of (potentially made-up) words, hoping never to hear the soul-crushing, pout-inducing, life un-affirming "ding" of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves a champion! At least the losers get a juice box.
A riotous ride, complete with audience participation, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a delightful den of comedic genius.
