ABOUT PENGUIN CAFE
Penguin Cafe is a band origin ally conceived by Arthur Jeffes\, son of Simon Jeffes and Emily Young\, as a continuation of his father’s project\, the Penguin Café Orchestra. The gr oup is distinct from the original Penguin Cafe Orchestra (PCO)\, despite th e similarities in genre\, name\, and even repertoire (Penguin Cafe often pl ays PCO pieces in concert.) There are no members of the original PCO in Pen guin Cafe.
Penguin Cafe’s current ten-person line-up was originally b rought together in 2009\, featuring a group of musicians ranging from “lumi naries from The Royal College of Music to members of bands such as Suede an d Gorillaz”. The group produced their first album\, A Matter of Life… in 20 10\, which was released on their own Penguin Cafe label.

This Samhain\, immerse yourself in ‘Short Tales’\; extraordinary otherworlds created by two puppeteers and a multi-in strumentalist\, telling magical (slightly) scary stories with vivid\, proje cted pen and ink drawings\, puppetry and a treasure trove of sounds. This s how gathers favourite short stories\, including the dream-like Night Flyer\ , humorous Devil in Cornwall\, spooky Wanderer and Edgar Allan Poe’s King P est. Performed by two puppeteers and a multi-instrumentalist\, The Paper Ci nema return to their ‘out-of-a suitcase’ origins to delight you with atmosp heric tales of ghosts\, dreams and the supernatural.
Founded in 2004 by Nicholas Rawling with Imogen Charleston and Christopher Reed\, The Paper Cinema creates unique\, magical performances that combine the languages of animation\, music\, film and theatre. Accompanied by a live soundtrack\, i ntricate pen and ink illustrations are skilfully manipulated in real-time i n front of a video camera and projected onto the big screen. Sitting in ful l view of the audience\, the puppeteers and musicians work to a precise cho reography that is as engrossing to watch as the story being played out abov e them.
60-minute show suitable for age 8 upwards (who don’t mind bei ng a tiny bit scared!)
The non-verbal storytelling is often subtle\, nuanced and often a little abstract.

Join us for a talk from Natalie Luckham of Wiltshire Digital Drive to hear how they refurbish digital devices and get them to those who need them.
"Fixing digital exclusion while tac kling e-waste: the circular economy in action"
Wiltshire Digital Drive is a non-profit organisation tackling digital poverty in our county while addressing the UK's growing e-waste problem. By breathing new life in to old tech\, they're equalising opportunities for education\, employment a nd training and improving community wealth.
And\, our Town Council's Kingston Road office is a donation station for Wiltshire Digital Drive.
We’d love to stay in touch! To find out about what’s happening at Climat
e Friendly Bradford on Avon\, you can:
• Sign up to our newsletter
• Visit our we
bsite
• Follow us on Facebook
Wherever you are in your 'climate journey' this is an invitation to make some connections in the local area\, and to explore the impact and emotions of climate change over tea and conversation .
This group is less about taking 'action' - although that is importa nt too\, and more about exploring our personal experiences and building und erstanding and empathy about how climate affects us\, our families\, work a nd communities. This is not a meeting about climate activism\, coming up wi th plans and strategies or debating scientific consensus - it's less about DOING and more about BEING.
Why We’re Here
Thi s space is an invitation to slow down and feel. To acknowledge the enormity of the times we are living through—not with solutions\, but with presence.
It’s rare to find places where we can speak honestly about what we f eel and what we know. Here\, we try to create that space—for each other\, a nd for ourselves.

Following their sold-out UK tour in May 20
24\, and festival appearances at the Cambridge Folk Festival in summer 2024
\, Rum Ragged will once again bring their distinct blend of Newfoundland tr
aditional music to the UK
Rum Ragged has always put a contemporary spi
n on its salt-covered folk music\, but Gone Jiggin’ is a new approach\, rea
ching back through time for a reverent celebration of heritage. Leaning pro
ud and hard into their Newfoundland roots\, the quartet led by Mark Manning
and Aaron Collis offers a dozen songs\, a mix of fables and memorials that
criss-cross the island they call home\, interpreted and arranged as a robu
st and incisive historical document.
Gone Jiggin’ traverses Newfoundla
nd to its farthest-flung points\, starting on “The Road to Lushes Bight (Is
land Stock)\,” a town of fewer than 200 on Long Island in Notre Dame Bay\;
dropping in on the east coast in “The Viking Jig—West Bay Centre” (Newfound
land being home to the North America’s only official Norse outpost)\; and w
est to “The Green Shores of Fogo\,” aka the world-renowned destination Fogo
Island. The house-hopping instrumental “Ray Head’s/Harry Eveligh’s/Mrs. Be
lle’s” also nods to Fogo in the form of Harry Eveleigh\, as well as the pla
ying of Ray Head in Glenwood and Belle Fennelly in Aquaforte.

our first guest exhibitor for the month of February 2026. Reza is a multidi
sciplinary artist based in Warminster\, influenced by his time in his nativ

abstraction as a mode of attention\, presence\, and temporal experience. W
orking across acrylic painting and photographic forms\, his work is shaped
by repetition\, movement\, and the accumulation of gesture. Rather than res

TCHAIKOVSKY Capriccio Italien
BRUCH V
iolin Concerto No. 1
SHOSTAKOVICH Symphony No. 10
Inspired by a trip to Rome\, Tchaikovsky’s Capriccio Italien brings us a colourful feast of Italian folk music\, whirling tarantellas and carnival scenes. We are de lighted to welcome Fenella Humphreys as our soloist for Max Bruch’s ever-po pular Violin Concerto\, full of gorgeous melodies. Arguably the greatest sy mphonist of the 20th century\, Shostakovich wrote his Tenth Symphony immedi ately after the death of Josef Stalin. Movingly depicting the terror and tr agedy of the Stalin years\, the symphony ends with the assertion of the ind ividual’s triumph over a dehumanizing regime.

Liz Watts is a highly successful ceramicist with a distinctive and instantly recognisable style. Her ceramics are loved for their warmth\, hum our\, and distinctive\, quirky character\, combining technical skill with a strong sense of individuality.

His undenia ble talent has earned him several awards\, including lifetime achievement a wards for songwriting from the BBC Radio 2 Awards and the Americana Music A ssociation\, plus the prestigious Ivor Novello Award.

Step into a space rarely open to the public and experience an
immersive sound bath held in the Temple\, a beautifully resonant space whos
e acoustics naturally amplify the depth and texture of sound. The combinati
on of architecture\, vibration and intention creates a truly unique sensory
experience\, while our comfortable YIN Bed supports complete relaxation an

As guided meditation and the genlte sound of gongs\, si
nging bowls and other sacred instruments fill the Temple\, you’ll be invite
d to lie back\, soften and allow the layers of sound to wash through you\,
supporting deep rest\, nervous system regulation and a sense of inner calm.
Due to the popularity of this venue and the intimate nature of the sp
ace\, we are offering two morning sessions:

11:30am Session

Spac es are very limited to preserve the intimacy and quality of the experience\ , and previous events at the Temple have sold out quickly. Early booking is strongly recommended to avoid disappointment.
We look forward to wel coming you into this remarkable space for a morning of resonance\, restorat ion and deep rest.✨

scandalous than anything Mr Darcy could have imagined. The Bradford

ning at The Hall Estate\, Bradford on Avon’s iconic Grade I-listed Jacobean
mansion\, this immersive walking tour leads you through the town to uncove
r the dramatic stories behind its Georgian streets\, riverside industry\, a
nd grand houses\, alongside industrial heritage and rebellion. This i
s not a dry history lesson — it is a vivid\, adult-only exploration of powe
r\, excess\, scandal\, and collapse at the height of the Georgian era\, and
a love letter for Bridgerton fans seeking the real Georgian world. W

a sheltered valley near Bath. We will sing in several parts of the garden\,
including the Loggia\, the Great Terrace\, the Casita and the Italianate C

His undenia ble talent has earned him several awards\, including lifetime achievement a wards for songwriting from the BBC Radio 2 Awards and the Americana Music A ssociation\, plus the prestigious Ivor Novello Award.
His song “1952 Vincent Black Lightning” was named one of TIME Magazine’s “100 Greatest Son gs Since 1923” and a wide range of musicians have recorded his songs includ ing Robert Plant\, Elvis Costello\, R.E.M.\, Bonnie Raitt\, Tom Jones\, Dav id Byrne\, and many more.

SHOSTAKOVICH Symphony No. 10
Inspired by a trip to Rome\, Tchaikovsky’s Capriccio Italien brings us a colourful feast of Italian folk music\, whirling tarantellas and carnival scenes. We are de lighted to welcome Fenella Humphreys as our soloist for Max Bruch’s ever-po pular Violin Concerto\, full of gorgeous melodies. Arguably the greatest sy mphonist of the 20th century\, Shostakovich wrote his Tenth Symphony immedi ately after the death of Josef Stalin. Movingly depicting the terror and tr agedy of the Stalin years\, the symphony ends with the assertion of the ind ividual’s triumph over a dehumanizing regime.

Florence Price Symphon
y No 1 – Allegro\, Largo\, Juba Dance\, Presto
Tonight’s programme ce lebrates two landmark voices in American classical music: Florence Price an d her former student\, Margaret Bonds.
The Montgomery Variations was composed in 1964\, this seven-movement work is a poignant musical chronicle of the Civil Rights Movement. It is built upon the African American spirit ual “I Want Jesus to Walk with Me\,” which undergoes various transformation s to reflect specific historical moments\, including the Montgomery bus boy cott and the tragic 1963 bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church. From th e defiant “March” to the ethereal “Benediction\,” Bonds’ music provides a p owerful vision of hope and racial justice.
In 1933\, Florence Price’s Symphony No 1 made history as the first symphony by a Black woman to be pe rformed by a major American orchestra—the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Price masterfully synthesizes European Romanticism with Black musical idioms. Th e first movement echoes the nationalist spirit of Dvořák\, the second featu res a majestic brass chorale inspired by church music. The third movement r eplaces the traditional scherzo with a spirited “Juba Dance\,” rooted in We st African rhythmic traditions.

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:Welcome to The Magical Forest. As you make your way through it you’ll soon discover that the journey to The Fairy Que en’s Party is not a straightforward path. Strange things happen all around as sprites and pixies enchant and trick\, but the only real obstacle is our selves.
Composer James Redwood and writer Hazel Gould transform Henry Purcell’s Shakespeare-inspired 1692 opera into a magical new adventure for the whole family. Our reimagining of Purcell’s The Fairy Queen is about wi shes that come true\, and what happens when they do\, as we learn about fri endship\, love and telling the truth…
It is the 365th birthday of the Fairy Queen\, and she wants her party to be the most magical night of the year. She wants music\, dancing\, entertainment and…mischief! Her loyal spr ites are set to work\, playing tricks and creating havoc for hapless humans they find in the forest.
Meanwhile Tim and Kirsty are both invited t o the party. They are secretly in love with each other\, but are too embarr assed and full of worry to tell the truth. When Puck\, the leader of the sp rites\, finds them in the forest\, they are the obvious choice for magical trickery for the Queen’s entertainment. They are both granted three wishes\ , but as Puck knows “Human beings don’t always… know what they’re doing”. A s they move through their wishes\, their choices become increasingly disast rous\, much to the amusement of the Queen and her guests\, until finally th ey realise\, that all they really need to do is tell the truth.
