SUMMARY:5Rhythms® Ecstatic Dance with Jon Ralls
DESCRIPTION:You Love Dancing to Great Music … but not the late nights\, substances and selfies?! \nYou’re not alone! \nThe 5Rhythms® is the original\, the mother of modern ecstatic dance practices. A simple\, powerful moving meditation that anyone – of any age\, size\, or physical ability – can practise. Lightly guided\, there are no steps to follow\, no choreography to learn\, no way to do it wrong. The only requirement is a body that is still breathing\, a heart that is still beating\, and mind that is still curious! \nCreated by Gabrielle Roth and practiced by tens of thousands worldwide\, 5Rhythms is a philosophy\, perspective\, performance art and a dynamic movement practice rooted in the principle that if you put the psyche in motion it will heal itself. Movement is both the medicine and the metaphor\, reaching across all languages\, cultures and age groups to transform suffering into art\, art into awareness\, and awareness into action. Wherever the 5Rhythms are practiced\, a community is born to dance\, to sweat\, to change\, to support\, and to provide a safe space for each of us to shatter the ego’s hold and awaken the juicy\, unpredictable\, fascinating\, edge-walking\, rock star part of ourselves that yearns to be free. \nCreativity. Connection. Community. \n  \nJon has been dancing the 5Rhythms since 2008\, and completed the 2023/24 5Rhythms Waves Teacher Training programme. He currently holds weekly 5Rhythms Classes in Weston-super-Mare\, and covers classes in Bristol and elsewhere when other teachers are away. Jon’s profile on 5rhythms.com: https://www.5rhythms.com/teachers/Jon+Ralls \n“I am endlessly captivated by the depth\, subtlety and simplicity of our practice\, always returning — especially when our busy old heads go off on one — to the ground of our practice… feet and breath\, feet and breath…” – Jon Ralls\, Accredited 5Rhythms Teacher \n  \nDETAILS: \nTwice monthly on the first and third Sundays of the month\, 11:00am – 1:00pm \n11am start – please arrive a little early to get ready and warm up (you will otherwise have to cross the ‘dance floor’ to deposit bags\, coats\, shoes!) \nTickets: \n£12/£10 booked online (by 9:00pm the night before) – see In-Rhythm website below for details and booking link; £15 drop-in (card/cash on the door) \nFull details are on the booking link \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Fundraiser Bar Night for Billy Twirling Through Time
DESCRIPTION:Tom Marshman and Ryan O’Shea invite you to come and celebrate the summer\, and raise a little cash for their queer theatre project too… \nWe made a show. We planned a tour. We had exciting conversations with Pride venues across the country. We wrote an Arts Council application hoping for a little funding to help make it all happen… \n…and then we didn’t get it. \nThe only slight problem? We had already booked the tour. So now we’re throwing a fabulous fundraiser to help get Billy Twirling Through Time out into the world.\nJoin Tom and Ryan for a chaotic\, joyful evening featuring exclusive extracts from the show\, a raffle (you might leave with something special) queer cabaret energy\, laughter\, silliness\, and a desperate but glamorous attempt to financially recover from our own optimism.\nCome support independent queer theatre and help us take this show on the road. \n\n\nEvent Details\nDoors Open at 7:00PM\nFrom 7:00PM to 10:30PM

SUMMARY:Zaid Hilal UK Tour 2026 MUSICIANS and SINGERS FREE WORKSHOP
DESCRIPTION:Zaid Hilal is a Palestinian folk-pop-rock artist on a UK tour. His concert is this evening at the same venue at 7.30pm. Zaid grew up and lives in Beit Sahour in Occupied Palestine\, on the West Bank. He studied classical Arabic music as a young boy at the Edward Said National Music Conservatoire\, playing the baglama and specialising in singing. You can read more in tonight’s concert entry. \nThis workshop is for intermediate and advanced players and singers. You should have reasonable fluency already in your instrument/voice. \nHe writes \n“This workshop is designed for musicians who want to go beyond playing notes and start understanding the language of Arabic music through its core foundation: the maqam system. Arabic maqam is not just a scale—it is a living musical expression built on emotion\, direction\, and identity. Each maqam carries its own character\, mood\, and traditional usage\, shaping how melodies are created\, performed\, and felt. In this workshop\, we will explore how maqams work in practice\, how they are constructed\, and how musicians can apply them creatively in performance and composition. \nThe focus is not only theoretical\, but also deeply practical\, training the ear\, the feeling\, and the ability to improvise within the system. Whether you come from a Western classical background\, jazz\, or contemporary music\, this workshop will help you connect your instrument to the Arabic musical language in a clear and usable way. By the end\, you will not only recognize maqams you will be able to play\, feel\, and use them confidently in real musical contexts.”\n\n\nEvent Details\nDoors Open at 2:00PM\nFrom 2:00PM to 3:30PM

SUMMARY:Zaid Hilal UK Tour 2026
DESCRIPTION:Spellbinding Palestinian folk-rock-and beyond\nZaid Hilal is a Palestinian singer and composer from Bethlehem\, carrying forward a living musical heritage shaped by memory\, resistance\, and everyday life.\n“As Palestinian artists\, we don’t only preserve heritage\, we build on it. We create new music that grows from it\, music that reflects our present reality and the struggles we continue to live through.” Zaid Hilal\nThis will be a solo act with backing tapes including Zaid’s field recordings of Elders’ remembered  songs of resistance.  The venue is a famous community venue with a particularly fine beer selection.\n\n\nMichael Loader will be joining Zaid on stage to add a tonic of trumpet to some of the songs and tell stories from Palestine and the Arabic world.\n\n\nZaid’s 2025 UK tour was a great success.  Here’s what one punter wrote at the Elementary Festival \n“There are moments when music becomes more than sound\, it becomes collective prayer. This set at Elementary Festival deserves its own story. When Zaid took the stage\, his voice carried more than melody\, it carried memory\, longing\, resistance\, and love. As we chanted back “Hala lala layya” with him\, we weren’t just singing we were remembering. Rooted in ancient folk song\, these words echo a love so powerful it would be “written on birds’ wings. Carried by wind. Etched in tears” In that moment\, we sang not just for one another\, but for all who long to be free. For Palestine. For the ones whose songs are interrupted. For the voices that rise even when silenced. It was joy… It was resistance. It was ancestral rhythm meeting modern grief. And it was holy. May we keep singing. May we never forget. May our voices carry around the world. How wonderfully blessed to be present with this”  Maggie \nIn the Middle East Zaid is a rising star with over a  million youtube hits and multiple thousands of followers.  See instagram @zaidhilalofficial\nAnd his thriving youtube channel.  Also his website https://zaidhilal.com \n\n\n\nEvent Details\nDoors Open at 7:00PM\nFrom 7:30PM to 10:00PM
