We hope you will be as excited as we are with the new season. In March we are proud to be part of the unique 10th anniversary tour of Trainspotting , the shockingly funny cult play from the nineties that inspired the movie sensation. Irvine Welsh’s pitch-black novel takes us on a drug-fuelled roller coaster ride through the darkest recesses of Edinburgh low-life. ‘ Coarse, brutal, nauseatingly and feverishly funny’ The Guardian. ‘Quite brilliant’ The Mail on Sunday. ‘Outstanding’ The Independent.
The one and only Courtney Pine is coming here on his big-scale tour celebrating his new album Resistance. One of the world’s top saxophonists, it will be marvellous to hear him in the smaller, intimate Playhouse space with its wonderful acoustics. 16th February – we suggest early booking….
More great jazz joins us with the National Youth Jazz Orchestra , favourites in Norwich, at the end of January and Back to Basie , a 17 piece big band with soloist Jacqui Hicks, here on 17th March. Both should delight all those who love trad jazz and book out our big band nights.
