Dance Vader
On January 1st 2000, legendary acoustic covers trio DANCE VADER were put into suspended animation with the plan to thaw them out in a thousand years. The idea behind the project ‘Diet Coke Break’ was to capture a living time capsule of the musical era that was the 90’s and aid the generations of a future world in understanding the music of the last decade of the 20th century.
Unfortunately, in 2023, following an unrelenting rise in energy bills, Umbrella Corporation pulled the plug out and binned the project after receiving a monthly bill of £780,876 from British Gas.
Lost in a time that doesn’t understand them, their only escape to keep their sanity is through music!
Catch DANCE VADER playing songs like the 90s never ended in a venue near you soon!
DANCE VADER are:
Scully - Vocals
Zeus - Guitar
The Real Seb Cole - Keys/Backing Vocals
‘The 90’s rang and want Dance Vader back.’
Jeff next door
‘It’s like finding an old CD copy of ‘Now That’s What I Call Music 35’ in your attic and wondering why you put it up there.’
David Dickinson
‘They play Fresh Prince? Nah thanks.’

As The Snow Falls, presented by Brightdog Theatre
As the Snow Falls follows Kenneth and Sam - two men from starkly different cultural backgrounds, both abandoned by society in very different ways. Despite their differences, they are ultimately united by shared grief and a love of music.
This powerful comedic drama examines the shifting social landscape and its impact on an often over-looked demographic. Through the lens of an ever diminishing pub culture, Kenneth and Sam’s unlikely connection emerges from one man’s desperate search for meaning.
The play explores themes of cultural starvation, male isolation, suicide, toxic masculinity, and division through technology - ultimately questioning what happens when the arts are stripped away from the working class.
