Summer museum challenge

Tilted Wig & Malvern Theatres in association with Theatre by Lake present The School For Scandal by Richard B Sheridan. With Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air, RSC and Shakespeare’s Globe star Joseph Marcell Gossip never goes out of fashion. Sir Peter Teazle (Joseph Marcell) believes his young wife is sleeping with someone else. She isn’t. But she’s starting to think if her husband believes it, she may as well give it a go. After all, if you’re going to cause a scandal, you might as well enjoy it… Deliciously naughty and outrageously silly, this timeless comedy is a masterclass in social satire and the art of gossip. Featuring an unforgettable cast of larger-than-life characters, each armed with a lacerating wit, The School For Scandal is one of the greatest comedies ever written. Join us for a lightning-paced evening of romance, revenge and rollicking fun that promises to leave you entertained, enamoured – and perhaps even a little scandalised!

Coming soon, an exhibition in The Temporary Exhibition Gallery at Northampton Museums and Art Gallery Northampton Museum and Art Gallery Saturday 16 March - Sunday 9 June 2024 Vivienne Westwood was seen as the Grand Dame of fashion design for over 50 years. Her work with partner Malcolm McLaren defined the look of punk in the 1970s and subsequent fashion collections shaped the fashion world of the late twentieth century. This exhibition showcases a small part of an extensive personal collection that features her iconic shoes and outfits from her career defining collections such as Seditionairies, favoured by the Sex Pistols and Pirate. The Vivienne Westwood brand was not involved in the curation or organisation of this exhibition.

Northampton Museum and Art Gallery Saturday 2 March - Sunday 1 September A celebration of the 20th century paintings, prints and sculptures in our collection that all share an abstraction of form, from large oil on canvas paintings to angular metal sculptures. This exhibition is a presentation of this central stream of modern art production, investigating abstract art’s unique voice, freedom of expression and artistic origins.
