Disney’s Finding Nemo JR. is a musical adaptation of the beloved 2003 Pixar movie Finding Nemo, with new music by award-winning song writing team Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez.

But when Nemo is captured and taken to Sydney, Marlin faces his fears and sets off on an epic adventure across the ocean. With the help of lovable characters such as optimistic Dory, laid-back sea turtle Crush, and the supportive Tank Gang, Marlin and Nemo both overcome challenges on their journey to find each other and themselves.
Featuring memorable songs such as “Just Keep Swimming,” “Fish Are Friends Not Food,” and “Go With the Flow,” Finding Nemo JR. brings a vibrant underwater world to life on stage in a story full of family, friendship, and adventure.

Blackadder The Third: Set during the Regency era, Blackadder serves as the cynical and scheming butler to the dim-witted Prince Regent, George.
Unlike previous series, where Blackadder was a noble or military figure, here he is a servant, constantly attempting to manipulate the foolish prince for his own gain. He is aided (or hindered) by his idiotic and filthy dogsbody, Baldrick. We can assure you that the normal Blackadder sarcastic wit is ever present, as he deals with historical events, absurd schemes, and figures such as the Pitt the Younger and Samuel Johnson.
The production follows Blackadder’s attempts to outwit rivals, get rich, and rise above his lowly status—all while navigating the incompetence of the Prince Regent. However, as with previous instalments, his cunning plans often backfire spectacularly.
Wheelchair bookings are available via Phoenix Theatre Company and Congleton Information Centre(01260 270350)

Mr Burton is a 2025 British biographical drama film about the early life of Welsh actor Richard Burton.
Based on the remarkable true story, discover how the poor son of a miner became one of the greatest actors the world has ever known, with the help of an unlikely mentor.
In the Welsh town of Port Talbot, 1942, Richard Jenkins (Harry Lawtey) lives as a wayward schoolboy, caught between the pressures of his struggling family, a devastating war, and his own ambitions. However, a new opportunity arises when Richard’s natural talent for drama catches the attention of his teacher, Philip Burton (BAFTA winner Toby Jones).
Taking Richard under his wing, the young man thrives thanks to Philip’s strict tutelage and the guidance of kindly landlady, Ma Smith (Academy Award nominee Lesley Manville). However, as the acting world comes within Richard’s reach, the burden of his past risks holding him back forever.
It is directed by Marc Evans, written by Tom Bullough and Josh Hyams.
