Three by Smoking Apples

At the heart of every family lies a story, and at the heart of every house is its kitchen. Three invites you into the lives of neighbours, Ida, Jaanvi and Ralph, to share their experiences, uncover their pasts, and learn how to make the best cup of tea.

Ida cherishes her time with her granddaughter Sophie, but as her memories fade, she feels her independence slipping away. Jaanvi shares her heritage with Anika, whose love forces her to face a life-changing decision. Ralph, content in his solitude, meets an unexpected visitor who challenges his loneliness.

From multi-award-winning puppetry company Smoking Apples, Three explores the unique relationships between Grandparents and Grandchildren. Using mask for the first time, in combination with striking puppetry and mesmerising shadow play, Three captures the quiet moments that define us.

Biff To The Future

Biff To The Future

Fresh from an acclaimed, award-winning Edinburgh Festival Fringe premiere, Biff To The Future is now touring the UK! The iconic villain of “Back To The Future” takes centre stage in this comedic reimagination of Marty’s time-traveling escapades, turning the celebrated cinematic trilogy on its head from the perspective of Biff, the bully audiences love to hate. This new, heartfelt and unauthorised parody explores the highs and lows of a life chasing power, fame and fortune, reliving Biff’s encounters with Marty and Doc across the centuries. This Edinburgh Fringe Theatre Award 2025 winner is perfect for superfans and newcomers alike! Created and performed by Joseph Maudsley (as seen in the Reduced Shakespeare Company, FRIEND (The one with Gunther) and Potted Potter). Directed by double Olivier Award nominee Daniel Clarkson.
