Donald Jenkins + Pete the Temp - Theatre Matinee Double Bill

Donald Jenkins: Still Raving in Your 40's? Rave tales from the sweaty Underbelly

Should middle age really stop you from being a raving reprobate? Still Raving In Your 40’s? is an emotional, euphoric and laugh‑out‑loud spoken‑word and music theatre show that dives headfirst into rave culture, aging, identity and survival on the dancefloor. Through razor‑sharp storytelling, raw honesty and high‑energy delivery, Donald Jenkins takes audiences on a journey from sweaty warehouse raves to the realities of adulthood — without losing the pulse, humour or heart of the underground scene. This is a show for anyone who ever danced until sunrise… and anyone who wonders if they still can.

Pete the Temp:. Romantics, Mystics and Revolutionaries

A true story of riot, anti-slavery, mysticism and psychedelics; told through the lives of two poet renegades: Samuel Taylor Coleridge and William Wordsworth. The Romantic movement was an act of defiance against industry and the mechanisation of the soul. What do their dreams of renewal offer our age of despair? Part storytelling stage-show, part performance lecture, Pete unfolds a journey of music, comedy and lyricism in a thrilling collision of scholarship and live entertainment. Expect reverence, resistance and enchantment from a time of slavery and war.
