CALLING ALL FAMILIES! 😀

We're THIRLLED to be welcoming back the brilliant FLADAM with their latest (and suitably Halloween-y themed) show HALLOWBEAN on Saturday 24 October at 11am for the perfect start to Half Term week! 🫘

In the town of ‘Ghooul’ Dr Frankenheinz is rustling up something special - the HALLOWBEAN!! The Doctor hopes his tomatoey terror will dazzle SCARY Berry, the most frightful food critic of them all. The only problem is his eeny beany isn’t very scary. In fact, she’s downright lovable! Uh oh. Can the Hallowbean find her scare in time?

Nominated for a BBC POPCORN NEW WRITING AWARD, this Dahl-esque treat from FLADAM (Flo Poskitt & Adam Sowter) and Ben Tansey has been delighting audiences around the country (including a joyous run at GLASTONBURY FESTIVAL 2025). Packed full of catchy songs, puppetry and laughs-a-plenty… HallowBean is the perfect half term treat for 3 to 10 year olds!

Join us for a special screening of White Riot, a powerful documentary exploring how punk music helped shape political resistance in late-1970s Britain. The film tells the story of Rock Against Racism, a movement formed in 1976 in response to Eric Clapton's public support for Enoch Powell, and charts how musicians, artists and activists united against the rise of the National Front.

Through a mix of archive footage and fresh interviews, White Riot captures the energy of a movement that grew from a small fanzine in Hoxton to the landmark 1978 anti-fascist carnival in Victoria Park, featuring artists including X-Ray Spex, Steel Pulse and The Clash.

The screening will be introduced by special guest Richard Balls, acclaimed music journalist and biographer, author of A Furious Devotion: The Life of Shane MacGowan, S*x & Drugs & Rock 'n' Roll and Be Stiff: The Stiff Records Story.

Richard will take part in a post-film discussion, and the evening will also feature a vinyl DJ set from Reel Connections. Copies of The Stiff Records Story will be available to purchase at the event.

White Riot is part of the nationwide Rip It Up season, celebrating the changing face of youth rebellion, culture and expression on screen, from joy and creativity to protest and heartbreak. The Corn Hall Diss is pleased to be working in partnership with Creative Arts East for helping to programme screening presentations.

Looking for a Halloween treat that’s funny, friendly and full of beans? 🎃

FLADAM THEATRE - musical comedy duo Flo Poskitt and Adam Sowter - are back in Diss with HALLOWBEAN!, a spooktastic, pun-and-puppet-packed adventure perfect for primary school-age children and their grown-ups.

In the town of Ghooul, Dr Frankenheinz is cooking up something very special: the Hallowbean! But there’s one teeny tiny problem… this little tomatoey terror isn’t scary at all. She’s lovable!

Can she find her fright in time, or will Halloween have to be cancelled?

Expect silly songs, brilliant puppets, giggle-worthy ghouls and just the right amount of Halloween mischief for a Saturday morning family outing.

From the BBC Popcorn New Writing Award-nominated creators of Green Fingers and Astro Norma, following a successful UK tour and a joyous Glastonbury Festival run.
