SUMMARY:Michael Akadiri: Don’t Call Me Uncle!
DESCRIPTION:Following two hit UK tours\, Biggest Award in Comedy nominee and resident (junior) Doctor Michael Akadiri prescribes Luton with a potent dose of his latest offering\, Don’t Call Me Uncle! \nMulti-award-winning comedian Michael is proud to wear many hats: doctor\, husband & father. Evidently\, that list does not include uncle. \nYet\, despite only being in his early 30s\, “the supremely talented and likeable” (Metro) doctor\, for the first time ever\, was recently called uncle in public (a term usually reserved for elders!). This has sent him spiralling! \nJoin the ”‘hugely entertaining” (Chortle) Akadiri as he fights this lurid allegation\, contemplates the difference between perception and reality all whilst keeping the laughs flowing with his trademark “sharp-wit” (Chortle) & “politically punchy” (Guardian) anecdotes. \nAs seen on Comedy Central LIVE\, ITVs Stand Up Sketch & Channel 4’s Stand Up to Cancer. \nAs heard on Capital Xtra’s Breakfast Show\, LBC & BBC Radio 4’s Loose Ends \nTour support for Jason Manford.

SUMMARY:Jenny Talia: Without Adult Supervision
DESCRIPTION:Live Nation presents – Jenny Talia: Without Adult Supervision \nJENNY TALIA is an Australian comedy rockstar — a razor-sharp stand-up musical menace with a guitar – and on this solo UK tour\, she is WITHOUT ADULT SUPERVISION\nHer shows blend quick\, fearless comedy with filthy original songs & savage crowd work. She’s toured internationally\, supported comedy legends (including her Dad\, comedy icon\, Kevin Bloody Wilson) and earned a reputation for shows that are smart & filthy\, with a cult following for performances that feel more like a party than a comedy set.\nWith 10 albums under her belt\, she’s a chaotic mix of quick wit\, fast paced banter and songs. Her delivery can be both ridiculous and weirdly relatable\, yet somehow still charming.\n“As an Aussie\, touring here is always a highlight. Some of my favourite comedians are from the UK\, so I’d consider the Poms comedy connoisseurs. It’s such a buzz to get to play for them”

SUMMARY:Tim Burton's Universe by Mystery Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the fantastical worlds of Tim Burton! We invite you to celebrate this Halloween weekend on a journey through the music that made it unforgettable. А unique concert will take place in the majestic St Mary’s Luton Parish Church\, located in the heart of Luton. \nFrom the shimmering wonder of Alice in Wonderland to the festive magic of The Nightmare Before Christmas\, from the haunting lyricism of Edward Scissorhands to the eccentric brilliance of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory — this concert immerses you in the soundscapes that shaped Burton’s unique cinematic universe. \nAt the heart of it all is the music of Danny Elfman\, Burton’s lifelong collaborator and one of the most distinctive film composers of our time. Elfman’s music blends playfulness with menace\, tenderness with grandeur — a perfect mirror of Burton’s visual imagination. Alongside Elfman\, highlights include unforgettable moments from Corpse Bride\, the cult favourite Beetlejuice\, the gothic sweep of Batman\, and the razor-sharp drama of Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. \nIn this premiere\, Mystery Ensemble brings Burton’s worlds to life in unique arrangements. Expect soaring voices\, bold instrumental colours\, and an atmosphere that shifts in an instant — from the macabre to the magical\, from the intimate to the epic. \nThis is not just a soundtrack concert — it is a live theatrical experience. The concert’s mysterious magic will arise from the connection between the musicians and the surrounding architecture. \nFeel as if you are stepping inside a Tim Burton movie itself! \nThe concert organisers are the creative agency RED EVENTS & Distribution ltd\, which produces exceptional cultural events in ancient mansions\, on rooftops\, in greenhouses\, and in other most atmospheric venues across Europe\, Great Britain\, Azerbaijan\, Georgia\, and other countries. Also in the repertoire – a collection of concerts by candlelight and with complete immersion in the space of video art and sound.

SUMMARY:AWAKEN - by Cheryl Prince
DESCRIPTION:When a medium is called to care for a dying man\, unsettling memories surface\, drawing her into a mystery reaching back to the witch persecutions of 1653. \nPart historical drama and part supernatural thriller\, AWAKEN shines a light on working-class women condemned as witches\, the lost language of Canting\, which predates Cockney\, and the almost-erased world of cunning folk healers. \nGiving voice to those silenced by history\, AWAKEN reclaims their wisdom\, resilience and extraordinary legacy in a haunting exploration of persecution\, memory and the power of the unseen.

SUMMARY:AWAKEN - a new play by Cheryl Prince
DESCRIPTION:AWAKEN by Cheryl Prince \nBlending history\, mystery and the supernatural\, AWAKEN is a gripping thriller spanning two lifetimes \nIn 2023\, Sarah Reynolds\, a medium and palliative care nurse\, is called to care for the dying Henry Husk by his daughter\, Liz. Long-buried memories begin to surface\, revealing a shocking connection to the witch persecutions of 1653. \nWhen Husk dies under mysterious circumstances\, Sarah finds herself accused of his murder. As the trial unfolds\, two lifetimes collide\, exposing the truth behind those branded as witches and the people who condemned them. \nAWAKEN shines a light on working-class women and the almost erased world of cunning folk healers. Partially written in canting – the lost language that predates Cockney\, it reclaims the wisdom\, healing and magic of the women whom history branded as witches. \nContent advisory: AWAKEN contains references to sexual violence\, abortion and witch persecution. Recommended for audiences aged 14+.
