Touch Tour (Sleeping Beauty)

New Wolsey Theatre, Civic Drive, Ipswich, IP1 2AS

A few more details ...

Booking an Audio Described performance? Add a Pre-show Touch Tour!

The Touch Tours for Dick Whittington and his Cat start one hour before the performance.

Please meet at the Box Office. Please only book in as many places as are needed as numbers are limited for these events.

For many blind, partially sighted or visually impaired theatregoers, a touch tour is an essential part of the theatre experience. Having access to the stage and set before a performance is a way of firming up the descriptive information they may have already received and provides them with extra detail to allow them to engage with the production. Customers will explore the space, and may like to handle selected props, costumes and furniture.

A touch tour ticket is not a ticket to the performance, these are booked separately through the Dick Whittington event page linked below.

Touch Tour (Sleeping Beauty)

New Wolsey Theatre, Civic Drive, Ipswich, IP1 2AS

A few more details ...

Booking an Audio Described performance? Add a Pre-show Touch Tour!

The Touch Tours for Dick Whittington and his Cat start one hour before the performance.

Please meet at the Box Office. Please only book in as many places as are needed as numbers are limited for these events.

For many blind, partially sighted or visually impaired theatregoers, a touch tour is an essential part of the theatre experience. Having access to the stage and set before a performance is a way of firming up the descriptive information they may have already received and provides them with extra detail to allow them to engage with the production. Customers will explore the space, and may like to handle selected props, costumes and furniture.

A touch tour ticket is not a ticket to the performance, these are booked separately through the Dick Whittington event page linked below.

Feel Me - January 2025

New Wolsey Theatre, Civic Drive, Ipswich, IP1 2AS

A few more details ...

Who do you care about and why?

'Feel Me' is an interactive theatre show from The Paper Birds, UK leaders in devised verbatim theatre. The show asks, via your mobile phone, who and what you care about from the stories unfolding live on stage in front of you.

A stunning mixture of live performance, film, projection, dance and music, 'Feel Me' will explore the different lenses through which we are told, and connect to stories in the modern digital world.

Worlds unfold from backpacks, and tents are constructed and dismantled again, each scene and location temporary, like a transient teenager in search of safety, acceptance and a new place to call home.

An interrogation of empathy, 'Feel Me' asks what makes us ‘feel’ for another person, as we journey through landscapes and across borders, through weather storms and paperwork, changing seasons, endless queues and interviews.

Presented by The Paper Birds and the New Wolsey Theatre.

Comedy Club 4 Kids - Feb 2025

New Wolsey Theatre, Civic Drive, Ipswich, IP1 2AS

A few more details ...

Like the name says - it’s a 'Comedy Club 4 Kids!'

Cracking entertainment for everyone over six years old and under 400 years old (no vampires).

Since 2005, the 'Comedy Club 4 Kids' has been getting the best stand-ups and sketch acts from the international circuit to do their thing for an audience of children and their families… but without the rude bits! It's just like a normal comedy club, but it's on in the day, kids are allowed in, and there is a higher than usual chance of heckles like "why is that your face!?"

‘A highlight for children... giving them a taste of some of the biggest names in comedy with the fun, rowdy feel of a real comedy club.’ - The Guardian

‘The perfect way to entertain the whole family.’ - Three Weeks

‘The ethos is just right.’ - The Daily Telegraph

‘This show was great!’ - The Scotsman

Just Between Ourselves

New Wolsey Theatre, Civic Drive, Ipswich, IP1 2AS

A few more details ...

By Alan Ayckbourn, directed by Michael Cabot.

Five birthdays. Two unhappy marriages. One possessive mother.

It is 1976. Dennis tinkers in his garage, cheerfully indifferent to wife Vera’s impending breakdown. Marjorie hovers in the background, making tea and finding fault. Neil has planned a birthday surprise for his wife, but Pam doesn’t share his enthusiasm, preoccupied by frustrations of her own.

In perhaps his most emotionally charged play, Alan Ayckbourn masterfully evokes a world of hidden tensions and suppressed hostility. He skilfully navigates the tightrope between comedy and tragedy, guiding us towards a hilarious, yet chilling finale.

Boy on the Roof - March 2025

New Wolsey Theatre, Civic Drive, Ipswich, IP1 2AS

A few more details ...

Vamos Theatre, in a co-commission with London International Mime Festival and a co-production with New Wolsey Theatre, presents 'Boy on the Roof' Acceptance, understanding and love find their way to centre stage.

Created through Community Conversations across the UK, gathering people’s experiences of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity (ADHD), loneliness, aging, hearing loss, connection and community, Vamos Theatre’s 'Boy on the Roof' is the story of an unlikely friendship, where acceptance, understanding and love find their way to centre stage.

At No.73 Cooper St, Brian Baxter wishes his son wasn’t so irritating. Liam Baxter can’t switch off, can’t sit still, he’s disruptive at school and chaotic at home. As for Liam, he just wishes someone understood him. Three doors down, Albert keeps himself to himself, sticks to his routines. At 91, he knows what he likes and likes what he knows. But Albert misses his wife and just wishes that someone, somewhere would have time for him. When Liam and Albert’s paths cross, no one can fathom what on earth they have in common. But the boy and the man share more than they know, and what slowly grows is a friendship that both of them need, even if the rest of the world can’t see it.

As with all its productions, Vamos Theatre welcomes everyone to see 'Boy on the Roof,' including people who may need a more accepting auditorium environment. The company invites all its audiences to join in supporting this inclusivity, so that everyone feels welcome.

Age guidance: 12+. Contains references to drugs.

It’s A Fine Life

New Wolsey Theatre, Civic Drive, Ipswich, IP1 2AS

A few more details ...

It’s A Fine Life! tells one of show business’ most fascinating stories, the life of Lionel Bart, with songs from his hit musicals (Oliver, Maggie May, Fings Ain’t What They Used T’be) and his chart toppers (Living Doll, From Russia with Love, Little White
Bull).

Lionel Bart is one of the household names of 1960s Britain…but why? Plenty of other songwriters have come and gone with only their melodies remaining in peoples minds. Bart was different, his parties were as spoken about as his chart toppers, his failures as spoken about as his hits and his scandals as publicly entertaining as his musicals. His story is the story of anyone who has taken on the establishment and against all odds made great art. This is the rise and fall story of one of Britain’s greatest musical giants.

SPITFIRE GIRLS

New Year’s Eve, 1959.

Decades after answering the call, two women separated by the war meet again as the rain hammers down on the windows of The Spitfire pub.

Funny and heart-warming, this is an untold story of strength, courage and loss. But above all else, hope.

A New Wolsey Theatre, Les Théâtres de la Ville de Luxembourg, and Theatre by the Lake production.

A wildly hilarious, fast-paced comedy that takes you behind the curtain of a chaotic touring theatre company desperately trying to maintain their composure and regain any shred of credibility.

From their frantic last-minute rehearsals in Weston-super-Mare to a disastrously silent performance in Ashton-under-Lyne, and a spectacularly calamitous final performance in Stockton-on-Tees, ‘Noises Off’ promises an evening of non-stop laughter and mayhem as the doomed actors struggle to keep their performance together whilst everything around them quite literally falls apart.

Written by the multi-award-winning British novelist and playwright Michael Frayn, this is a new production of one of the most celebrated plays ever written.
