Thick & Tight: Natural Behaviour
2026-05-23 19:30 - 21:00, 2026-05-22 19:30 - 21:00 (Europe/London) | Norwich Theatre Playhouse, 42-58 St Georges Street, Norwich, Norfolk, NR3 1AB, United Kingdom
Dance theatre company Thick & Tight presents their award-winning show Natural Behaviour, a collection of performed portraits of human and non-human life forms.
Somewhere between a variety show and a biology essay come alive, Natural Behaviour is a queer look at what it means to be natural or unnatural, highlighting the essential role of diversity in all life.
Thick & Tight’s distinctive mixture of dance, satire, impersonation and poetry aims for the outrageous, the beautiful, the hilarious and the profound.
The line-up in this evening includes two moths, some post-apocalyptic cockroaches, a blade of grass, the dust in Quentin Crisp’s room, a lamenting songbird, a human tyrant and a lesbian seagull.
Thick & Tight’s co-directors Daniel Hay-Gordon and El Perry are joined by a cast of remarkable dance artists; Annie Edwards (Candoco), Azara Meghie (Ray Young, Talawa), Luigi Nardone (BalletBoyz, Holly Blakey) and Jahmarley Bachelor (Punchdrunk). Natural Behaviour is designed by Tim Spooner, Pam Tait, Darren Evans and Nao Nagai.

Suffolk Singers Recital
2026-05-23 16:00 - 17:00 | wymondham abbey, Church Street, Wymondham, NR18 0PH
Suffolk Singers, a renowned ‘a capella’ choir, are delighted to give a recital at Wymondham Abbey on Saturday 23rd May at 4pm.
The programme is an eclectic mix of sacred and secular works celebrating the enduring power of the human voice, from the luminous polyphony of the Renaissance to the rich, expressive music of modern composers.
We will be singing well-known choral anthems including Bruckner’s Ave Maria and Palestrina’s Exsultate Deo and we are very excited to perform a version of Albinoni’s much-loved Adagio, which has been set to the words of Ave Maria and arranged especially for Suffolk Singers by Jamie John Hutchings.
American composer and arranger Moses Hogan brings a different spiritual dimension to the programme through his powerful arrangements of music that draw on the legacy of African American sacred song, offering both exuberant energy and profound emotional resonance.
On a lighter note, the programme includes an arrangement of ‘My love is like a red,red rose’ and two Shakespearean songs which capture the charm and elegance of Victorian part-song writing.
The programme reaches into the 21st century with the contemporary voice of Elaine Hagenberg and the modern harmonic language of Kim André Arnesen.
We will be performing Three Antiphons of Hildegard of Bingen, written for the choir by Jamie

Erik’s life has fallen apart since his dad died. Money is tight, his baby sisters demand all his Mum’s attention, and concentrating on homework feels impossible.
As he turns away from school and friends, Erik’s bad behaviour attracts the wrong crowd. He’s excited by hanging with a new crew and what seems like easy money for trainers and a phone. But Erik is quickly sucked in to a dark world of drug-dealing, violence and lies, risking not just his own safety, but that of his whole family.
Crossing the Line is a powerful drama, inspired by a true story. Adapted from Tia Fisher’s award-winning verse novel and devised with input from young people, it explores the devastating impact of county lines and the strength that can be found in the face of it.

Come join us at Carrow House for a fun, easy and uplifting new community dance class that will inspire you to move and groove together. Whether you’re a beginner, curious about movement or a seasoned dancer, this class is open to everyone. As a professional contemporary dance instructor I will guide you through easy-to-follow movements that get us all moving across the floor together (think folk dance) as we move towards more rhythmic and dynamic moves (think freeflow clubbing), ensuring you have a great time while learning new moves and connecting with yourself and others. There is also space to rest and observe from the sidelines, if needed.
Don’t miss out on this opportunity to dance with others in a safe and inclusive space, enjoying the great vibes of dancing in the golden light of the change of season in the beautiful and ornate Orangery, a grade II listed building, at the new Carrow House in Norwich. The class is led by Carrow House member and American-British dance specialist and teacher Sara Wookey. We uphold a friendly, non-competitive and inclusive dance environment where everyone can find their own pace and experience the joy of dancing alone and with a group.

Brokentalkers present Bellow
Bellow tells the extraordinary real-life story of one of Ireland’s foremost accordionists, Danny O’Mahony, a man who has dedicated his life to the preservation of traditional Irish music and to the mastery of his craft.
Bellow takes the audience on a raw, intimate, deeply personal journey of self-reflection, passion, and the pursuit of artistic purpose. Bellow weaves together past and present as Danny revisits pivotal moments in his life, his first taste of music as a child, the mentors who shaped him and the unrelenting pursuit of mastery that left room for little else.
Alongside Danny’s sublime live playing, Bellow features an original electronic composition by Valgier Siggurdson, new writing and contemporary dance, heightening the tension between past and present.
Bellow is a unique and astonishingly beautiful theatre performance exploring what it means to be an artist.
