SUMMARY:Wonderful Wednesdays - Action Hero: A Song and Dance
DESCRIPTION:Pay what you can afford  \nDoors open 7:30 pm\, Show starts 8 pm \nThis show is for a seated audience\n\nDuration: 60 minutes\n\nAction Hero are preparing something for the audience. A song and dance. \n\nIts no big deal. Just a little something. A collection of memories\, musings\, colourful costumes\, light entertainment\, comic relief\, dancing\, really easy stuff\, really good fun stuff. To help us all get by. To get through the day. To get through the week. To get through the year. To get on with it. Without a fuss. \n\nYou’re in very safe hands\, we’ve done this many many many times before. \n\nIn a Song and Dance\, a performer is lost in his own repeating anxiety dream\, trying to stay on topic and keep the show on the road. As he gradually loses the plot\, distracted by the ghosts of previous shows & his own unfeasible life story\, the show starts to unravel. He competes with himself and his intrusive autobiography as he wrestles to keep everything on track\, to keep the dances coming\, to keep himself to himself. \n\nA Song and Dance is a comical and slightly disordered show about masking\, performing and ‘putting on a show’.\n\nPress quotes \n\nthrillingly funny and strange…Beckett’s hip\, pop-culture savvy descendants\n–	Time Out London on previous work\, The Talent \n\nI have never seen a show from these artists that didn’t make you sit up a little straighter and want to peer a little more closely\n–	Lyn Gardner\, Stagedoor\n\nAbout Action Hero \n\nAction Hero create artworks that explore what is it to be human now. From stage to page to audio to immersive interaction\, Action Hero create structures for people to experience alternative ways of being together. Previous projects have toured to more than 40 countries across 6 continents\, to both critical and popular acclaim. They have been shortlisted for the Live Art Prize\, a Total Theatre award\, and won an Off West End award for Best Performance\, and a Critics Table award for Best Touring Show. They were recently longlisted for the 2025 Artangel Open. \n\nCredits \n\nDeveloped with funding from Arts Council England. \n\nCreated by Action Hero \n\nText: Gemma Paintin and James Stenhouse \nDirection: Gemma Paintin \nPerformer: James Stenhouse \nDramaturgy: Deborah Pearson \nCostume: Ray Gammon \nLighting Design: Alex Fernandes \nMusic composition: Dinah Mullen \nSocial \n\nMedia & Web \n\n@ActionHeroLive \n\nactionhero.org.uk

SUMMARY:Live Captioned Talk + Tour
DESCRIPTION:New for 2026\, our team have created a Live Captioned Talk + Tour of Colchester Castle\, aimed at Deaf\, deafened and hard of hearing audiences. \nAccompanied by live captions and images\, our guide will first talk through the Castle’s 2\,000-year history! After a Q&A\, you will then be taken down into the Roman Vaults\, the foundations of the Temple of Claudius\, and up the Great Stairs. As our Wi-Fi does not extend underground\, we have signs and a pre-recorded\, captioned video that offer more fascinating insights. The tour ends on the Castle’s first floor galleries\, where you can explore our array of fascinating displays. \nThe Talk + Tour is suitable for ages 4+. \nPlease note the tour includes climbing uneven stairs with no lift access\, crouching to pass through low archways\, and some uneven flooring underfoot. For anyone who would find this inaccessible\, a captioned\, virtual guided tour is available. It costs £1.50 to hire\, and you can request it at reception. We will provide a tablet with the tour preloaded\, along with headphones for your convenience. \nFor useful information\, such as how to find us and what facilities Colchester Castle has\, we recommend reading our Access information. \nLive-captions for this event are provided by our friends at Stagetext. If you’ve not experienced live-captions before\, you can find out more on their website. \nTickets cost £4.95 per adult and £2.85 per child after admission to the Castle.

SUMMARY:Dacia Album Launch Party
DESCRIPTION:Tickets £10 in advance\, £12 on the door.Doors open 6.30pm. First band on 6.45pm.This gig is for a standing audience. \nAll tickets cover admission and a free copy of the Dismanibus Dacia album to be collected on the door. \nDismanibus\, local melodic death band and titans of the Essex metal scene\, are launching their magnum opus concept album ‘Dacia’ at the Colchester Arts Centre\, in what promises to be a night of truly epic aural brutality. “Dismanibus\, for those who have never seen them live\, are simply one of the most enjoyable bands you will see in the Essex area.” – Jack Fryer\, Metal Recusants. \nThe album follows the life story of a Dacian aristocrat\, later to be remembered as an infamous traitor\, Bikilis. From assisting his life-long friend and mentor\, Decebal\, in claiming the throne\, following the unexpected death of their king Duras\, we see them consolidate power among the Dacian tribes\, outmaneuver the Roman emperor Domitian\, to pressure Rome into signing a treaty on terms extremely favourable to the ascendant Dacian kingdom and begin to build Dacian fortifications across the lands north of the Danube. The story follows their early victories and subsequent changes in fortune with the rise of a new Roman emperor and seasoned general\, Trajan\, as he sets his sights on Dacian conquest. It closes on Bikilis’ descent into despair\, disillusionment\, betrayal and sorrow\, as the Dacian people find themselves on the receiving end of one of the only documented Roman wars of extermination… a harrowing reminder of what the civilised world is capable of in its quest for control of wealth and coveted natural resources. \nSupport will be provided by four of the best local metal acts in the scene today… \nOlympus – Melodic death metal forged in Essex fire. Old-school roots\, modern aggression. They tear through the boundaries like blast beats through bone! \nBy Virtue Fall – Progressive metalcore brimming with soaring melodies and brutal breakdowns for thinking headbangers! \nKillerkorp – Military-grade extreme metal: Slipknot meets Gojira with a dystopian message in every artillery-hit ri􏰀! \nDraugrheim – Nordic melodic metal: from mead-soaked feasting hall tunes to blood-drenched and vicious neck-snappers\, Draugrheim come to claim victory on the stages of all lands!

DESCRIPTION:Backed by a top-drawer band with impressive CVs to match\, prepare to embark on a soulful journey with outstanding vocalist Noel McCalla\, who will perform his own authentic and diverse original compositions as well as songs by soul superstars such as Al Green\, Bill Withers\, Marvin Gaye\, and Curtis Mayfield\, plus performers like Sting. \nDescribed by Blues & Soul magazine as “one of Britain’s best soul singers”\, Noel is a world-class vocalist and frontman; his captivating control over the band and his audience interaction and involvement make for an exhilarating musical experience. \nPerforming a combination of amazing ‘groove’-based originals and some timeless soul standards in his own fiery\, high-energy style\, if you love imaginative composition mixed with an exciting vocal performance by an enormously gifted songwriter\, be there!  \n​NOEL McCALLANoel’s career started in the 70s with the band Moon\, who recorded two albums for Epic Records. When Moon disbanded in 1976\, Noel released a solo album\, Night Time Emotion\, produced by Trevor Rabin. He also worked and toured America with Sniff ‘n’ the Tears\, where his voice was integral on the hit single Driver’s Seat. \nIn the early 80s\, Noel formed Contact (subsequently renamed McCalla) and released the critically acclaimed Push and Pull\, followed by the equally well-received Hot from the Smoke. \n​As well as previous collaborations with master bassist Alfonso Johnson\, singer/songwriter Paul Weller\, and Dave Lewis 1 Up\, Noel really began garnering more public attention and acclaim in the mid-80s with the seminal jazz-funk band Morrissey Mullen\, providing vocals on their 1985 release\, This Must Be The Place.  \nHe did likewise on the legendary Icelandic jazz-rock band Mezzoforte’s No Limits\, while also providing vocals on Mike Rutherford’s highly acclaimed album\, Smallcreep’s Day. \n​From the early 90s\, Noel’s searing\, soulful vocals were featured with the iconic Manfred Mann’s Earth Band for more than 19 years and\, more recently\, with the Derek Nash Funk Experience\, and City Funk Orchestra. \n​Currently\, Noel is arguably best known as co-leader with Jools Holland’s lead saxophonist Derek Nash of the enormously popular The Wonder of Stevie show. \n​​Noel McCalla (Vocals\, Tim Cansfield (Guitar)\, Henry Thomas (Bass Guitar)\, Nic France (Drums)

SUMMARY:Vinyl Sessions: Jeff Buckley - Grace
DESCRIPTION:Tickets £4\nDoors open 12pm\, show starts at 12:30pm\nThis show is for a seated audience.\n\nThe bar will be open throughout.\n\nJeff Buckley / Grace\n\nGrace is in with a shout of being among most influential records of the past 30 years. From Radiohead (their ‘guitars phase’\, at least) to Muse\, Coldplay and countless others\, it’s become a touchstone for every indie band since the 90s that’s ever featured male falsetto vocals. It didn’t exactly set the world alight when it first came out – it barely troubled the charts and divided critics – but has risen in stature enormously over time. From the roiling rhythms and vocal intensity of the title track\, to the stately ‘So Real’ and haunting ‘Dream Brother’\, there’s some properly hefty songwriting on show here. And even if you can happily go to your grave without hearing Buckley’s cover of ‘Hallelujah’ ever again\, after its use in countless films about angsty couples and reality TV montages (trust us\, we’re with you) hearing in context is a powerful reminder of just how magisterial it really is. This winter\, come along to hear Grace beneath vaulted ceilings\, meet fellow fans of the record and commune.\n\nThe album playback will be followed by a Q&A session.\n\nAfter a short break\, we&apos;ll follow the album with our usual ‘Dead Wax’ session.\nBring along a vinyl disc of your choice and hear a track from it played through the Arts Centre PA. This can be anything you like\, for any reason – the more ‘out there’ the better.

SUMMARY:Simon Yates of Touching the Void - My Mountain Life
DESCRIPTION:Tickets £22.75\nDoors 7.30pm\, talk 8pm\nThis event is for a seated audience\n\nA fascinating and humorous evening\, acclaimed by both regular theatre patrons and outdoor enthusiasts alike!\n\nOn the remote Siula Grande in Peru in June 1985\, mountaineer Simon Yates found himself in a desperately unenviable position. He was slowly being pulled off the mountain face by his injured partner\, Joe Simpson\, dangling on the rope 50 metres below. His decision to cut the rope saved both their lives in the epic of survival that followed and with the publication of the book ‘Touching The Void’\, later film and stage play\, both climbers became household names.\n\nIt was an experience that could have put many off the sport of mountaineering – but not Simon. Over 35 years later\, he is still a very active exploratory climber and guide\, making several expeditions to the mountains each year. From the Arctic to the Antarctic\, Alaska to Central Asia there is hardly a significant range that he has not visited.\n\nCome along and witness Simon’s tireless journey from that mountain in Peru to some of the remotest on the planet and share with him the drama\, excitement and beauty of modern\, lightweight alpinism. Told with wit\, dry humour and lavishly illustrated with images and film collected on his great climbs.\n\n“Simon is a totally engaging speaker\, who both entertains and inspires.”

SUMMARY:Wonderful Wednesdays - SkelpieLimmer Productions & Brassneck Theatre Company: Anthem for Dissatisfaction
DESCRIPTION:Pay what you can afford  \nDoors open 7:30 pm\, Show starts 8 pm\nThis show is for a seated audience\n\n"Songs aren’t just about love or breakups. They’re about desire. Gambling.

I get it!" \n\nThe Credit Crunch\, 2007. ‘Irish Twins’ Sarah and Jamie are growing up in Belfast with a shared obsession of music and the weight of parents on the breadline. Pop\, rock and punk rails against austerity Britain and an ever-failing Tory-government\, giving these siblings an epic score to navigate lives that are destined for different paths. \n\nOasis\, The Jam\, Springsteen and Sam Fender songs scream at the state of the nation\, tugging at the memories of what it means to grow up on benefits in a country where poverty became a punchline. Benefits Britain never sounded so good… \n\nA defiant “rip-roaring tour de force” fuelled by the music and people who speak to your soul and punch you in the gut. The multi-award-winning gig-theatre show Anthem for Dissatisfaction rejoices in working class strength with wit\, integrity\, and disarming honesty.

The Rabbitts are an ever-evolving group who are constantly creating and rarely staying still. \n\n“The Rabbitts approach folk and indie from an almost experimental perspective\, drawing from other genres with ease” – Analogue Trash \n\nhttps://therabbitts.bandcamp.com/\n\n\n\nEvy Frearson is a 22 year old British\, alternative floaty rock artist. Her writing and playing style is inspired by her love of the legends from the 90s and more contemporary sounds such as Jeff Buckley\, Yebba and John Mayer.
