SUMMARY:General Medical Emergency Ward 10
DESCRIPTION:Following a fire in The Alex’s main hall\,  this event has been relocated to The Arden Theatre. Leslie Smith Dr\, Faversham ME13 8PW ( In the Central carpark)  \n\nThe award-winning Dyad Productions and Company Gavin Robertson are joining forces! \nIt’s a pedigree of the first degree! Between them\, Dyad’s recent productions – Austen’s Women: LADY SUSAN\, A Christmas Carol\, A Room of One’s Own\, That Knave\, Raleigh – and Gavin Robertson\, with Done to Death by Jove!\, The Ghost of a Smile andBOND – An Unauthorised Parody have toured both the UK and internationally\, with resounding success over the last few years. Labouring away in secret\, looking for the perfect co-production has taken time\, but finally the answer has arrived! \nEvery hospital\, medical-based\, Doctors-and-Nurses cliché-ridden drama onstage in a comedy mash-up spoof! \nIt’ll have you in stitches! \nIt’s Dr Ann Fleming’s first day at St David’s\, where her unfortunately-named mentor Dr Death\, is determined to show her who’s boss. As medical emergencies overload the hapless staff\, Dr Fleming has to juggle a complicated budding love affair\, with a liver\, and a nosey Hospital boss. Not literally. \nYes – Holby City\, Casualty\, E.R. and Doctors – not to mention movies galore\, are re-imagined and invigorated by Rebecca Vaughan\, Andrew Margerison and Gavin Robertson in a pacy\, cliché-ridden comic homage to the intrigues and dramas of every hospital plotline on the big and small screen! \nTo be taken once a day (or twice if there’s a matinee). \nCreated in collaboration with the Old Town Hall\, Hemel Hempstead. \n★★★★★ ‘If you haven’t seen Dyad Productions’ work before\, you simply must’ – British Theatre Guide\n★★★★★ ’Robertson performs with a subtle conviction that’s compelling to watch’ – The Guardian

SUMMARY:People’s Emergency Briefing
DESCRIPTION:In November 2025\, the National Emergency Briefing brought together leading experts to present the latest evidence on the climate and nature crisis to politicians and other influential people in Westminster. That evidence is now on the public record. \nThis documentary aims to bring local communities together to hear the same evidence from scientists\, security experts and public figures like Jennifer Saunders. The film aims to inspire hope and encourage a social tipping point of change as a community\, before our planet forces it irreversibly\, before we have had opportunity to build a resilient infrastructure. \nThis screening is 50 minutes and will be followed by a short panel discussion with local school teachers\, to see how we as a community can support our young people’s voices in expressing the futures they want and deserve. \nPlease note this film screening has an age 16 rating.
