The Forecast (October 17) by Limbik theatre is descrbed as a cross between The Handmaids’ Tale and Black Mirror. Fleeing war, poverty, debt and environmental destruction, four women have agreed to work as society’s latest consumer craze.

Mugenkyo Taiko Drummers’ show Tribe (November 4) features a breathtaking display of high energy and powerful rhythms on huge drums.

War with the Newts (November 13) is inspired by Karel Čapek’s apocalyptic science-fiction satire of the same name.
