On The Beach

A Spare Tyre production in partnership with Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch and Havering Changing

 

A new interactive sensory experience for people living with dementia and their carers. Over the course of an hour, On the Beach explores a day in the life of a working beach – its myths, magic, perils and ever-changing beauty, drawing on rich traditions the world over using dance, music and interactive visual storytelling.

 

Tickets for this production are offered on a Pay What You Can basis to ensure no-one is excluded because of their financial circumstances. We know that ticket price is a huge barrier for some, and so Pay What You Can offers people who can afford to pay the recommended price or more the chance to support others who can’t.  If you’re able to pay over the suggested price, this will help us continue to offer this pricing model for as long as possible, removing the barrier of ticket cost for those who most need it.

Killing Jack

A Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch production

WORLD PREMIERE

The Autumn of Terror. 1888. When five women are brutally slaughtered in the slum warrens of Whitechapel, the world’s biggest manhunt begins and a legend is born. Jack the Ripper. 

Halloween. 2023. Best mates Jules and Maz are dressed to kill and ready for fun. But on the night of the dead, a shattering event occurs and something awakens in the old bones of Whitechapel. Something dark, something restless…  

Killing Jack, a newly commissioned play from Sadie Hasler (Stiletto Beach, Misfits), is a darkly thrilling plunge into a world where women return to take back their stories; perhaps even to exact their own bloody revenge…

A choreopoem written and directed by Sonny Nwachukwu

‘Eve and Cain’ is an honest dialogue about stammering and offers a rare exploration of communication disabilities.

 

This research and development is supported by Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch, Stamma, Graeae and was supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
