We’re delighted to have launched a new audio system to enhance the theatre experience for hard of hearing and visually impaired audiences.

The new system, Sennheiser Mobile Connect, can be accessed through your own personal device, such as a smart phone and tablet, to enhance sound for the hard of hearing. The same system can also be used at audio described events for visually impaired customers to access a helpful commentary.

Track 10 - Murder She Didn't Write

Join Sara Perks, Jesse Jones, and Kyle Collingwood as they dive into the world of design, theatre-making, and (the) Woman.

This episode explores (the) Woman, a fiercely funny and brutally honest play by award-winning writer Jane Upton, shortlisted for the Bruntwood Prize. 

M is a writer, a mother, and a woman—navigating the messy, raw truth of motherhood while battling burnout, loneliness, and the weight of everyone else’s expectations.

Featuring sharp insights and lively discussion, this conversation dissects the creative process, the play’s themes, and the challenges of telling women’s stories on stage.

🎭 “So good we thought it was written by a man!”

Beyond the Stage EP01 - (the) Woman - Sara Perks

In this episode of Beyond the Stage, we explore the powerful themes of Tambo & Bones with Dr. Emel Thomas, Senior Lecturer at the University of Northampton and co-chair of the Centre for the Advancement of Racial Equality. She joins Jesse Jones and Kyle Collingwood to unpack the play’s sharp satire, its critique of race, identity, and capitalism, and its bold, thought-provoking storytelling.

What does Tambo & Bones say about the systems we navigate daily? How do satire and hip-hop shape its message? And what does it mean to reclaim power through performance?

Tune in as we dive deep into these questions and more.

Listen now on Beyond the Stage, the official podcast of Royal & Derngate Theatre.
