The Two Popes at Rose Theatre 

From the writer of the Academy Award-winning Bohemian Rhapsody, Darkest Hour and The Theory of Everything comes the play that sparked a major motion picture.

Anton Lesser (Game of Thrones) and Nicholas Woodeson (Baptiste) star in this fascinating and humorous story that shines a light on one of the world's most secretive institutions.

Nine years ago, Pope Benedict XVI stunned the world by resigning, the first Pope in 700 years to do so. What drove this archconservative to break with sacred tradition and make way for a football-loving reformer to become Pope Francis?

Inerdzia and Overload at The Fighting Cocks

Inerdzia formed in the spring of 1995.

Since the first years the band made itself known both in Italy and abroad through an intense live activity that leads them to share the stage with leading bands of the world punk scene! In 2001 came NEVER MIND THE BORDERS, the second album of INERDZIA and a true work of explosive art.

In 2008, the singer and bass player Elena relocates to the UK and the band takes a 10 years long hiatus, to come back in 2018 with a new video and 6 special gigs to promote it that touches Italy, Germany and the United Kingdom with great satisfaction of either the band and the large audience that participates and here they are this Saturday to treat The Fighting Cocks' crowd to a night to remember!

Overload are a brutal streetpunk band from the UK whose sound is raw and energetic hybrid of streetpunk and '80s trash.

The Jumpstarts at at The Oak

The Jumpstarts are a razor-sharp musical unit delivering authentic Ska music from the depths of Sout.

This Saturday they head to The Oak, renowned for its live music weekly on Thursday nights through to Sunday.
