A gibbet has been erected @ A E Harris, which means the witch trials have come to town. Theatre Ark are staging The Crucible spread over four locations within the venue, it’s all shaping up to be pretty intense. Tonight is sold out but there are ticket available for Tuesday and Wednesday. We are hosting the box office here.

Madness of a different kind is to be found at The Old Joint Stock this Thursday and Friday as Little Earthquake bid farewell to Birmingham before a year acting up in Australia. Their parting shot on these shores is a return to their first show Gogol’s Madman. They’re an engaging company so it’s worth checking the show out and giving them a good send off in the hope they will remember us fondly and return in 2011. Tickets can be got here.
