Beauty and the Beast
We took a sneak peak into the Beauty and the Beast rehearsals and the cast and crew are already having an amazing time.
Performances are from Tue 9 – Sun 14 April at 12noon & 4pm, except on Thu 11 April which has a 7pm show. There is also a relaxed performance on Thu 11 April at 3pm for those who prefer a calmer environment.
We are so excited to share this magical musical with you this Easter, so make sure to book your tickets today.

Sacred Touch exhibition and workshop
A new exhibition, Sacred Touch by Victoria Cooper Pedrote, has arrived in our Balcony Gallery overlooking the Atrium.
This body of work explores the significance of approaching touch, and other senses, as the means to access and process emotions, on and off the page.

Omid Djalili on sale now
The Persian Comedy Powerhouse, Omid Djalili, performs his critically acclaimed new show Namaste at South Hill Park on Thu 24 Oct.
Omid peacefully bows to his inner anger and unleashes a torrent of comedic vitriol upon the current state of this dangerously messed up planet. Book tickets here.

Take One Picture exhibition
Last week, our Learning and Participation team went to visit Birch Hill Primary School for their Take One Picture exhibition. Students spent time working on a variety of different pieces based around themes from a picture – this year being A Tiger in the Storm. (Surprised!) by Henri Rousseau.
Ben, our Learning and Participation Coordiator, said “It was a brilliant project that all the students (and staff) had put a lot of hard work into. We were very impressed with the talent and creativity of the pupils at Birch Hill.” It is always great to see local schools getting involved in the arts.

Tell Tale Rooms Exhibition and Special Event
Join artists Andrew and Eden Kötting in conversation with filmmaker Iain Sinclair on Fri 8 March, as they discuss their new exhibition The Tell-Tale Rooms, a VR experience at South Hill Park. This event is FREE but booking is essential.
This father-daughter artwork collaboration blends animation, archive and live-action. In these rooms you walk amongst the artworks, memories and dreams of Eden, a visually impaired, neuro-divergent artist. The rooms are on display between Wed 6 – Wed 20 March. Find out more here.
