The Second Best BedBy Avril Rowlands, Starring Liz Grand, Directed by Chris JaegerthURsDaY 26 sEPtEMBER, 7.45PM

Tickets: £15

When Shakespeare died, he famously left his wife Anne only one thing – the second best bed. This superb one-woman play, full of both humour and pathos, has received great critical acclaim since its premier at the Swan Theatre Worcester in 2012. Liz Grand stars as Anne Hathaway on the night of Shakespeare’s funeral. The wake has finished, the mourners have all gone home, leaving Anne to remember her life with the most talented playwright the world has ever seen. Or was he? Did he write the plays? His widow would know if anybody did. Wouldn’t she?

“Lifts the lid on a Tudor can of worms…. a showcase for the towering acting skills of Liz Grand.” WORCESTER NEWS

Based around Collin’s desire to see out his last three days of probation without incident, this unique and disarming film tells its story with assured characterisation, sharp social commentary and great performance poetry.CERT: 15 DIR: CARLOS LÓPEZ ESTRADA

Halla, magnificently played by Halldóra Geirharosdóttir, is a bike-riding environmental guerrilla battling government plans to build a new aluminium smelter amid the breathtaking beauty of rural iceland. The story has a mythic feel, incorporating fable-like elements, casting Halla as Artemis, Greek goddess of the wilderness and the hunt, a theme that’s brilliantly emphasised by Erlingsson’s use of on-screen musicians as a kind of Greek chorus. Halldóra Geirharosdóttir commands the screen throughout.CERT: 12 DIR: BENEDIKT ERLINGSSON
