Revenge After The Levoyah

  1. Jewish Essex. One funeral. Two twins. And a 80-year-old ex-gangster with a plan that’s absolutely meshugge.

Malcolm Spivak’s had enough. He corners twins Dan and Lauren, fresh from their grandfather's funeral, with a proposition: help him kidnap Jeremy Corbyn. Yes, really. What follows is a chaotic Jewish heist comedy that blends madcap comedy and biting political satire.

Following two sell-out runs at The Yard Theatre in 2025, and Edinburgh Fringe (Summerhall) in 2024 Nick Cassenbaum’s (Fringe First winner and Popcorn Writer's Award nominee) explosive ​five star show, directed by Emma Jude Harris (Stage's Fringe Five 2024), tears through antisemitism in the diaspora, the dangers of collective hysteria, and how far you can throw a jar of chraine from a moving vehicle.

Written by Nick Cassenbaum
Directed by Emma Jude Harris

'In one cathartic hour and with two pitch-perfect performances directed by Emma Jude Harris, any residual Jewish anxiety from one of the darkest periods for the community evaporates.' ​​★★★★★ Jewish Chronicle

​​'Wickedly irreverent when it needs to be and raw and deeply impactful when necessary.'​​ ★★★★★ Theatre Weekly

'A brilliantly perceptive but brutally unforgiving show that dares to tackle pitch-black subjects with fiery humour.' ​​★★★★★ The Arts Desk

​​'Proving the four corners of the sky are the only limits for what is possible on stage.​​★★★★★ Plays To See

'A frenzied hilarious treat for the imagination.' ​​★★★★★ The Scotsman

Suitable for ages 16+ years

Stevie Martin - Clout

Stevie Martin (Taskmaster, Mitchell & Webb’s brand new sketch show, 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, The Horne Section TV show) has been doing online comedy for a while (45 million views worldwide) but is now returning to live comedy with her latest show, which sold out at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and at Soho Theatre this year.

It's like her online stuff but she'll be on a stage and you can't pause her to get a snack (meats?). Also you have to sit in a specific room to watch it (please don’t bring your meats to this room).

‘High-quality gags tightly packed inside other gags, ready to jack-in-the-box out and multiply… Ingenious' ★★★★ The Guardian

'Generous, surprising and joyous' ★★★★ The Times

'Stevie Martin's densely-packed show peeking behind the curtain of online stardom begs repeat visits… A clever, knowing and, crucially, hilarious, hour' ★★★★ The Scotsman

'Successfully brings that online visual hilarity to the stage, via twin immersive screens assaulting your senses with messages from her phone and laptop while Stevie hardly catches breath between gags' ★★★★ Daily Express

'This is a properly funny show' ★★★★ The List

Align and Flow Yoga

Led by Deborah Le Vene-Page

Align and Flow Yoga is influenced by the biomechanics and heart orientated philosophy of the Anusara Hatha style of yoga. With a specific alignment focus within the flow of postures the practice will tone and strengthen the body, improve posture and create more freedom in the body and mind resulting in a calm and relaxed state of being.

Each week there will be a different theme weaving its’ way through the session, but a typical class starts with breathing techniques to centre and ground, poses to warm up and then progresses to a fun and challenging mix of vinyasa and alignment yoga.

This class is designed to cultivate focus, stamina, strength, and flexibility. Leaving time at the end for a well-deserved relaxation.

Come prepared for an energising class that will also leave you feeling relaxed.
