KANPUR: 1857 comes to The Lantern Theatre on Friday 3rd July.

Strapped to a cannon, an Indian rebel has to answer to a British officer for the crimes of Kanpur, an Indian uprising against British colonial forces. Based on historical events, this new play comically satirises contemporary conflicts around gender, colonial violence, and making art in times of crisis. Who is the hero and who is the villain? Whatever happens, it's going to be explosive.

"A storytelling genius." ★★★★★ - The Scotsman

Written by and starring Niall Moorjani, co-directed by and starring Jonathan Oldfield, director of 2024's Best Newcomer Award-winning show.

The news is in and you are trans.

Introducing You've Gone Quiet, coming to The Lantern Theatre 18-20 June.

You play Beth, a struggling journalist whose best friend demands that she helps her get pregnant. But when Beth turns that into an article, the breaking news breaks her right back.

Writer Cerys Duffy and Director Andy McLeod bring a fierce, funny, and heartfelt story that tackles the media head-on. Told from Beth's perspective, the audience witnesses life as a trans woman in 2026, fighting against a world that pushes her to the margins — and into silence.

Featuring Shane Convery (BBC's Privileged & Blue Lights) and Gennifer Becouarn (BBC's The Gold).

'Essential viewing and unquestionably a five-star evening.' ★★★★★ Theatre-News

'I cannot recommend this play too highly… giving much food for thought. If only all new plays were even half as good as this one!' ★★★★★ London Theatre1

'Whoever you are, the comedy, pain and love of You've Gone Quiet will speak to you.' ★★★★½ The Reviews Hub

Created by Open Handed Theatre, a Brighton-based company using stories to transform the suppressed into the spectacular.
