Blue Beard screening and Q&A

Join us to mark International Women's Day 2026 with a screening of the Emma Rice Company's 2024 production Blue Beard.

Blue Beard the Magician makes hearts flutter and pupils dilate. With a wink, a stroke and a flick – things just seem to vanish. Cards, coins, scarves… and women.

Puff! Gone. Without a trace.

Emma Rice brings her own brand of theatrical wonder to this most beguiling and disturbing of tales. With her signature sleight of hand, Blue Beard explores curiosity and consent, violence and vengeance – all through an intoxicating lens of music, wit and tender truth.

Following the film screening the evening will feature an engaging Q&A panel, full line up to follow.

Running Time: 2 hours including interval, plus Q&A
Recommended: Ages 14 and above
Tickets: Free, although donations welcomed.

Many thanks to the Emma Rice Company for their permission to screen the film.
