PUNK: Rage & Revolution

Northampton Museum And Art Gallery 4-6 Guildhall Rd,, Northampton

Punk took the world by storm, leaving a lasting legacy that continues to inspire and provoke people today. The young people of Northamptonshire were as inspired by punk as the rest of the country - they formed bands, set up music and clothing stores and managed punk nights. This major exhibition follows the Punk: Rage & Revolution exhibition at Leicester Museum and Art Gallery and explores fashion, music, the local gig scene and much more.

Oh What A Lovely War

Royal and Derngate Theatre 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DP

Oh What A Lovely War# More than a century on from the Armistice, Oh What A Lovely War remains a classic of the modern theatre and a powerful reminder of the atrocities of a war that cost twenty million lives.

Now, more than ever, it holds a mirror up to the world and speaks to us all. Full cast has now been announced. Oh What a Lovely War stars Christopher Arkeston (Only Fools and Horses: The Musical), 2023 Rose Bruford graduate Tom Crabtree, Harry Curley (Caligari), Alice E Mayer (Frankenstein), Chioma Uma (Brief Encounter) and Euan Wilson (A Midsummer Night’s Dream). The production is directed by Nicky Allpress (The Shape of Things), with musical direction by Ellie Verkerk (Burnt City, The Color Purple, SIX) and movement direction by Adam Haigh (Ruddigore).

Buffy Revamped

Royal and Derngate Theatre 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DP

Seventy minutes. Seven seasons. One Spike. This fast-paced gem brings you the entire 144 episodes of the hit 90s TV show, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, as told through the eyes of the one person who knows it inside out…Spike. Buffy Revamped tours the UK this Autumn following its award-winning Edinburgh Fringe premiere in 2022 and two sold-out national tours. Funny, satirical and bursting with 90s pop-culture references, it’s the perfect parody for Buffy aficionados and those who never enrolled at Sunnydale High alike. Created by comedian Brendan Murphy whose last show, FRIEND (The One with Gunther), won Best Play at the World Wide Comedy Awards. Winner: Best One Person Show and Best Comedy Performance at the Dark Chat Awards 2022.
