The Hardacres is an upcoming British period drama television series for Channel 5, adapted from the novel series by CL Skelton. We are so pleased to announce Adam Little & Shannon Lavelle have been cast as Joe & Liza Hardacre, and also Conor Deane will feature throughout the series.

Animal Farm is in full swing at the Bolton Octagon and soon travels to Derby Theatre and then Hull Truck for a short tour! 

Theatre Reviews North had some fab things to say about the production and our brilliant Amy Drake - which we thoroughly agree with!

"All the cast members play more than one role, varying from pigs to hens, a donkey, a raven and more. The movement and mannerisms of the different animals are very well portrayed, especially by Amy Drake as the silly and skittish young mare, Mollie"

One summer to shape a lifetime.

National Tour: 1st February 2024 - 8th March 2024

Zia turned 17 last week. When they arrive at Camp Phoenix for a compulsory weeklong residential, they aren't sure if it's for them. The camp helps young people emerge from the dust of their younger selves, just like a phoenix. Through regulated activities, young people develop the skills to rise into the next phase of their lives to become great citizens and employees.

But not everything goes to plan. When Zia and their newfound friends realise that the camp's values don't include everyone, they discover that the most valuable lessons are those learnt from the people around them.

Camp Phoenix is a show packed with adventure, new music, and vital life lessons, featuring a dynamic cast of professional performers and local young people.
