Address: Malthouse Lane, Salisbury, Wiltshire, SP2 7RA Telephone: 01722 320333 Event: Welcome To Thebes - 7pm - In partnership with Wiltshire College and University Centre, our Wiltshire Creative Academy students present their final performance of the year. Set in the present day but inspired by ancient myth, Welcome To Thebes explores the struggles of Eurydice, the first democratic president of a war-torn Thebes, who seeks peace without the support of Theseus, the wealthy leader of Athens. As the threat of insurrection looms and a dictator's body remains unburied, the play passionately examines the clash between the world's richest and poorest nations in the aftermath of war.

Comedy

It turned out that he had testicular cancer and one month later he was lying in hospital waiting to have his murderous gonad removed. Would he survive? (No spoilers!). For a comedian who had done a whole show on male genitalia (Talking Cock) and written a book about toxic masculinity (The Problem With Men) this felt like some cruel trick of fate. With extra dates added in 2025 for his much-anticipated return to stand-up after six years, Richard talks bollocks and answers the question on everyone's lips: Is a severed gonad in a jar a fitting prize to bring in for Taskmaster?
