  • Friday 12 July 9am - Sunday 1 December 7pm

    Bringing together the worlds of painting and poetry, image and text, this stunning exhibition is a harvest of the collaborations between Sir Ben Okri and Rosemary Clunie. Preoccupied by the shadows and beauty of the world, the climate change crisis, social injustices, creativity and playfulness, the marvel that is colour, the enigma that is form -these painting come from two artists steeped in the spiritual and artistic traditions.

    7pm - 8.30pm

    With Trevor Dance

    These profoundly esoteric lectures examine the laws inherent in reincarnation and karma and explore in detail the incarnations of specific historical figures. The opportunity to study this lecture series in a group affords us a chance to really get to grips with these fundamental issues, which demonstrate the realities of the workings of karma in human life.

    10.15am - 12.15pm

    with Smadar Bunzl

    Do you still dream?
    Do you still close your eyes and imagine You in that place of Joy and Grace?
    Do you stop and take a breath as you relish the step you just embraced?
    Or has it come to such a place
    where you no longer know your face,
    Or hear the beat of the inner voice;
    and ask thin air - Is there a choice?

    If you are a woman seeking to dream aloud and ask unashamedly:
    Who am I? Am I on my Path? How will my day become the Journey of Fulfilment? Then this Circle may be just the place for you;
    A safe space to speak your dreams, your truth, your fears;
    A place to share and support in the little things that become great lives;
    To give and receive twelvefold. The weekly sessions will be theme-led, weaving everyone’s personal question and quest through conversation and movement.

    Occult Science was first written by Steiner in 1909 and after that, three revised editions (1913, 1920 & 1925) followed. Studying the book, a first glance into supersensible worlds is given. ‘One of the fairest fruits of the pursuit of Spiritual Science is that it lends strength and firmness to life. Inexhaustible is the fountainhead from which it draws, giving human being strength for work and confidence in life’ - Rudolf Steiner.

  • Friday 11 October 7pm - Sunday 13 October 1.15pm

    A conference organised by The Humanities and Social Sciences Sections of the School of Spiritual Science and the Anthroposophical Society in Great Britain

    The rapid global development of AI is inexorable, and offers infinite possibilities to enhance the quality and scope of our lives. There are no areas of our professional, financial, social, cultural, medical and personal experiences that are not amenable to the effects of this technology.

    This challenges us to find ways of working creatively in what is also becoming an increasingly dehumanised culture, ever more disconnected from nature, and with virtual substitutes for true human encounter. 

    We need to understand the significance of personal and sensitive data being undeletable, manipulable, and indiscriminately accessible, and of our being inextricably bound through mechanised connections and algorithms that serve commercial and questionable political interests.

    To what extent is our evolution in our own hands? What inner practices can we adopt to hone the necessary discernment to engage healthily with the technology without becoming in thrall to it?  This technology cannot be avoided. Will the need to discern what opportunities these developments might have for humanity lead to positive engagement, as for example in a Manichean approach?

    The aim of this conference is to explore and raise questions about these issues in the context of our conscious responsibility for our unfinished human evolution . 

    Jeremy Naydler, Paul Levy, Edwin Hübner, and Malin Starrett will be the main contributors to this event.  Their professional, artistic, and life experiences will inform, inspire, and provoke discussion.  Each of their contributions  will be followed by time for discussion, which we see as an essential part of the conference.

                                                       Fritz Wefelmeyer and Andrew Wolpert

    From Machine Intelligence to the Intelligence of the Heart
    Machine intelligence is the product of the morally and emotionally disengaged “onlooker consciousness”, which was the driving force behind the Scientific Revolution. In the mirror of machine intelligence, the onlooker consciousness is presented with its own reflection. Both the human soul and nature call out for a counterbalancing consciousness that is morally awake and lovingly engaged with the natural world – an intelligence of the heart, through which a healthier relationship to machine intelligence can be forged. Jeremy Naydler philosopher, gardener, and author of several books including, In the Shadow of the Machine: The Prehistory of the Computer and the Evolution of Consciousness (Temple Lodge, 2018) and The Struggle for a Human Future: 5G, Augmented Reality and the Internet of Things (Temple Lodge, 2020).

    Staying Awake and Conscious in the Digital Realm
    The rise of digital technology is now touching all of our lives whether we want it to or not. How do we remain awake in the digital age and not fall into digital stupor and distraction? What opportunity does the rise of technology create for our own development and the development of humanity as a whole? This will be a practical conversation about how we meet the digital realm with alertness and humble mastery. It is all too easy to surrender whatever real freedom we have gained in our lives to the world of digital technology. How do we maintain an upright stance both physically and spiritually? Drawing on over 30 years of research Paul Levy will share practical examples, exercises and pathways to remaining alert in a digital age.

    Paul Levy is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Brighton, an Associate at the University of Warwick, founder of the theatre magazine FringeReview, an author and facilitator. He is the author of several books including Digital Inferno, The Poetry of Change, and Technosophy.

    Between Artificial Intelligence and Virtual Spaces: Human Thinking and Perception

    Thinking and perceiving are the two basic pillars of human cognition. Artificial intelligence threatens our ability to think for ourselves; virtual worlds tempt us to lose the real world. This threatens the very foundations of humanity. On the other hand, artificial intelligence and virtual spaces offer new possibilities for freedom and communication. However, this presupposes acquiring new skills allowing us to meet - and not just give into - the demands of high-performance technologies. Rudolf Steiner’s work offers precious inspiration for this.

    Edwin E. F. Hübner is Professor at the Freie Hochschule Stuttgart - Seminar for Waldorf Pedagogy. He studied Mathematics and Physics and taught at the Waldorf School in Frankfurt. Academic research in the area of media pedagogy. Publications include ChatGPT Symptom of a technological future: The Tasks of Education in the Age of the Mechanisation of the Spirit (2023), Human Spirit and Artificial Intelligence (2020) and Imaginations in Virtual Space: Technology and Spirituality (2008).

    Machines with Memories
    We now live in a world where nearly all knowledge expressible in words, where nearly all physical images and recorded sounds can be accessed at the touch of a button. In utilising the internet to communicate and to store personal thoughts, images and audio, many people are outsourcing their inner lives to partly exist in data centres. Such storing and processing of personal data may affect human beings while incarnated and also after death. This presentation will trace some relevant aspects of the history of machines with memories, leading to the situation today.

    Malin Starrett trained in Anthroposophical approaches to science and technology through the Anthro-Tech Association, while also carrying out natural scientific doctoral studies in Ulster University (2001). Since then, he has continued studies and experimental researches in areas relating to science and technology, also writing and teaching on these themes.

  • Friday 11 October
    7pm - 8.30pm

    with Christopher Marcus

    Rudolf Steiner repeatedly gave those who wanted to tread the inner path six exercises that would form a strong and healthy foundation for their journey. These strengthen and enable us to take charge of our life of thought, feeling and will. He warned that ignoring them would be dangerous; practising these exercises means taking hold of one’s shadow with enthusiasm! This talk will offer us keys to deepening our understanding of ourselves, each other and the mystery of destiny.

    Christopher is a director woorking in the genre of spiritual theatre based on Rudolf Steiner’s teaching. He was ordained as an Interfaith Minister in 2007 and, besides directing, creates ceremonies for the life rhythms between birth and death. He has a practice in spiritual counselling and specialises in teaching the six subsidiary exercises. He lives in Forest Row with his wife and two children.

    All welcome, no need to book, no charge.

    Voluntary donations towards costs are gratefully received and can be made by transfer to a Nationwide account held for this purpose.

  • Monday 14 October
    7pm - 8.30pm

    with Dr Sue Peat and Adrian Hotten

    This Autumn we will be starting to read Theosophy, which is one of Rudolf Steiner’s fundamental and foundational books, published in 1904. It begins by describing the threefold nature of the human being: the body, or sense-world; the soul, or inner world; and the spirit, or universal world of cosmic archetypes. A profound discussion of reincarnation and karma follows, concluding with a description of the soul's journey through regions of the supersensible world after death. The book closes with an outline of the path to higher knowledge. Copies of the book are readily available both new and pre-loved, and it is also available on the Rudolf Steiner Archive website.

    All are welcome to join us for any, or all, of these meetings.

    Previous knowledge of Rudolf Steiners’ work is not expected or required. All our meetings are free. Donations towards expenses are gratefully received.

    Developing inner resources for living a more conscious and creative life

    with Marjatta van Boeschoten and Adrian Locher

    Each of us has the capacity to reach a calm inner space, from where we can draw on our deepest resources to build strong foundations for life. Meditation helps us strengthen the quality of our attention, be more awake and present in the moment and open to fresh possibilities and horizons for the future. From this vantage point we can take up the multiple challenges of life with greater equanimity, resilience, insight and enthusiasm.

    In these six workshops, we will draw on indications and exercises given by Rudolf Steiner for developing a western, contemporary meditative practice. Each session will contain content, exercises and conversation and is suitable for both newcomers and those already experienced in meditative practice.

    Marjatta practised as a lawyer, then founded a management consultancy specialising in human development at work. She is the General Secretary of the Anthroposophical Society.

    Adrian Locher has a background in theatre and working with young adults. He is a Council member of the Anthroposophical Society and works at Rudolf Steiner House.

  • Friday 18 October
    7pm - 8.30pm

    with Angela Lord

    Whenever we experience colours, we are actually making a soul-journey through the individual and varied colour scapes which each colour creates. Our soul experiences blue in a particular way, red in another; yellow, orange, purple, green, all create individual impressions, and we are inwardly moved and affected in different ways. According to Rudolf Steiner’s indications, each colour opens a soul door to another realm, and each colour expresses its own being in our human sense-experiences, and in the spiritual worlds of the elementals, the Angels, and the Higher Hierarchies. In this evening’s illustrated lecture we shall explore colour-journeys which encompass visual sense impressions, soul responses and spiritual insights.

    Angela Lord is a teacher, art therapist, visual artist and author. She is currently teaching painting in Forest Row and in Dornach, Switzerland. Her 12 published books include, ‘ Art, Aesthetics and Colour’, Colour Dynamics Books I and II, Form Drawing, and Rudolf Steiner’s 4 large watercolour paintings.

    All welcome, no need to book, no charge.

    10am - 4pm

    with Sue Davies

    Come and join us for a full day’s workshop gently exploring many of the faces of grief. Grief and loss are part of life: we all face losing people and things we care about. The day will offer therapeutic art practices to respond to and process loss. This may be grief associated with the loss of a loved one; ancestral grief; loss of self; loss of community; loss of place; loss of ecosystems and species.

  • Saturday 19 October 10am - Sunday 15 December 5.30pm

    with Sarah Kane 

    The one-day workshops planned for 2024 - 2025 provide an opportunity to explore practically the core elements of Michael Chekhov’s acting technique that he continued to develop throughout his life. They range from the very beginnings of any serious artistic research and exploration to the finer points of developing a stage life and creating character, including the character’s psychological gesture, voice and speech. 

    Each workshop will be an entirety in itself and can be taken individually. Nevertheless, each workshop builds on the one or ones before, and priority will be given to those wishing to be part of the three groups of workshops (September – December, January – April, May – July) and in the entire series.   

    Part 1: October – December 2024 

    Saturdays: ACTING AND THE IMAGINATION  

    Sundays:    SPEECH AND THE IMAGINATION 

    Part 2: January – March 2025 

    Saturdays:  FROM MOVEMENT TO GESTURE IN ACTING 

    Sundays:    FROM MOVEMENT TO GESTURE IN SPEECH 

    Part 3: April – July 2025 

    Saturdays: CREATING CHARACTER  

    Sundays:   CREATING A CHARACTER IN VOICE AND SPEECH 

    The sessions aim to introduce participants to or deepen their practical understanding of the strongly creative and highly artistic techniques developed by the Russian actor in the middle of the twentieth century and augmented in his training by Steiner’s approach to speech and voice. Both approaches aim to inspire and empower actors for their future work by building a both living and sensitive bridge between the movement and the speech of an actor.. 

    Please bring clothes and shoes suitable for both movement and speech workshops as a well as a piece of text such as a monologue or poem known by heart, so that it can be used in the exploration of any aspect of the techniques in practice. 

    Workshop Fees:  

    1 workshop day: £60.00 

    1 workshop weekend: £110.00 

    3 workshop days: £150.00   

    PART 1: ACTING AND THE IMAGINATION 

    1. Saturday September 7 2024 --> POSTPONED

    10.00 – 17.30 

    ENLIVENING IMAGES 

    How can actors develop their imagination so that it becomes a tool in their tool-bag of techniques? This day of practice and exploration will start with concentration and observation, and then apply any discoveries to strengthening the imagination. 

    2. Saturday October 19 2024 

    10.00 – 17.30 

    ENLIVENING MOVEMENT: MOVEMENT QUALITIES 

    This will be a day of connecting movement and the imagination, exploring four archetypal qualities and improvising with them, as a step towards transforming into character. 

    3. Saturday December 14 2024 

       10.00 – 17.30 

    ENLIVENING SPACE: ATMOSPHERES 

    Giving actors the tools with which to develop a sense of the life of the space they work in is one of Chekhov’s great contributions to the art of acting: we will be investigating those tools with the help of the imagination. 

    PART 1: SPEECH AND THE IMAGINATION 

    1. Sunday September 8 2024 ---> POSTPONED

        10.00 – 17.30 

    IMAGINATION, IMAGES, WORDS 

    How can actors engage with the imagination to help to give life to their words? Finding and inwardly connecting with the images that words express will be the theme of the workshop. 

    2. Sunday October 20 2024 

        10.00 – 17.30 

    ENLIVENING SPEECH: SOUNDS 

    Consonants have a life of their own that can enrich and inspire an actor’s speech. The workshop will explore how the four different qualities of consonants and their connection to the four qualities of movement can create a living bridge between movement and speech.   

    3. Sunday December 15 2024 

       10.00 – 17.30 

    COLOURING WORDS  

    Can words carry atmospheres and their colours? The workshop will explore how the wealth of English vowels can be used to colour and transform any piece of text.

    Who am I? Am I on my Path? How will my day become the Journey of Fulfilment? Then this Circle may be just the place for you;

    Developing inner resources for living a more conscious and creative life

    with Marjatta van Boeschoten and Adrian Locher

    Each of us has the capacity to reach a calm inner space, from where we can draw on our deepest resources to build strong foundations for life. Meditation helps us strengthen the quality of our attention, be more awake and present in the moment and open to fresh possibilities and horizons for the future. From this vantage point we can take up the multiple challenges of life with greater equanimity, resilience, insight and enthusiasm.

    In these six workshops, we will draw on indications and exercises given by Rudolf Steiner for developing a western, contemporary meditative practice. Each session will contain content, exercises and conversation and is suitable for both newcomers and those already experienced in meditative practice.

    Marjatta practised as a lawyer, then founded a management consultancy specialising in human development at work. She is the General Secretary of the Anthroposophical Society.

    Adrian Locher has a background in theatre and working with young adults. He is a Council member of the Anthroposophical Society and works at Rudolf Steiner House.

    with Dr Sue Peat and Douglas Davidson

    Biodynamics is an organic method of cultivation arising out of Rudolf Steiner’s Spiritual research. It was his response to questions from farmers who were unhappy with ‘chemical’ agriculture. Biodynamics works with the rhythms of the movements of the Sun, Moon, planets and stars, to which the plants respond. The workshop will cover the background of the biodynamic planting calendar and using the biodynamic preparations. It’s autumn so we will focus on sharing tips for harvesting, composting and preparing your garden for winter.  For the last hour, we’ll stir the horn manure preparation (known as 500), so bring an empty screw top bottle if you would like to take some home.  A 500ml bottle is enough for an average garden. The workshop is suitable for those new to biodynamics and for anyone who would like to give their garden, window boxes or house plants an autumn treat!  

    Sue and Douglas are enthusiastic gardeners with lots of practical experience in biodynamic gardening.  

    All are welcome, no need to book.

    with Dr. Peter Gruenewald

    Ioannis Georgiou "Yanis" Varoufakis is a renowned Greek economist and politician. Since 2018, he has been Secretary-General of the Democracy in Europe Movement 2025, a left-wing pan-European political party he co-founded in 2016. He once described himself provocatively as a battle hardened, reconstructed materialistic socialist. In a moving podcast with Gabor Maté, Varoufakis shares his spiritual journey through music, experiencing profound ecstasies and catharsis. He reveals conscience, social responsibility, and social engagement, qualities that underscore his spiritual path and inspire hope. Varoufakis describes the death of capitalism and its replacement with techno-feudalism, driven by AI algorithms that manipulate human behaviour, reflecting the despair of individuals in a society rooted in social Darwinism and materialism. Human and nature relationships are being replaced by working and living with technology, and many young people are left in a state of hopelessness. The resulting mental health crisis among young people is a heart-breaking consequence.

    Transforming human relationships and society can begin with individual change, fostering personal, interpersonal, social, and spiritual skills to promote self-knowledge and transformation. Building communities based on truthfulness, selfless love, and brotherhood are essential. A holistic therapeutic approach to managing stress, fostering spirituality, and reconnecting people with each other and nature is my form of therapeutic activism.

    Peters contribution lies in resilience training, which, when well-taught, can significantly positively impact people from all backgrounds, initiating transformation and appealing to the core of our humanity. This path embraces Steiner-inspired and scientifically validated techniques, such as Resonant Frequency Breathing Meditation, emotional regulation through journaling, purpose finding through courageous self-dialogue, moral imagination as a manifestation technique, mindful nature observation for spiritual reconnection, and active listening for deep interpersonal connections.

    Introducing ‘psychological safety’ in various contexts, from families to work environments, will allow these resilience skills—rooted in service, respect, love, and personal freedom—to flourish. Let’s explore these techniques and how they may contribute to our collective human journey.

    Dr Peter Gruenewald is an anthroposophical doctor, general practitioner, specialist doctor in sleep medicine and a trainer in Adaptive Resilience and stress management. He is the author of many books, including Rosicrucian Alchemy. A Spiritual Christian Path (2024),  Mastering Life. Rosicrucian and Magical Techniques for achieving your Life’s Goals (2022),  Manifesting your Best Future Self: Building Adaptive Resilience (2020) and  The Quiet Heart. Putting Stress in its Place (2007).

    This does not require membership of the School of Spiritual Science to attend.

    Chapter 4 of that book describes an experience of the true I in contrast with the everyday me.

    An intimate performance of the sublime works of Jelaluddin Rumi,13C Gnostic Sufi Master, Poet, and Awakened Heart

    with Duncan Mackintosh

    who has been performing Rumi’s work for over 30 years

    ‘I am burning with the love of God!
    Does anyone need a light?’
    - Rumi

    A spontaneous blend of Rumi poems, aspects of his life, and some of the tales he told, depending on the moment and the nature of the audience - as a means to allow Rumi’s extraordinary inspiration, his heart nourishing wisdom, passion and humour to touch and open us - and finally bless us, as silence - as grace.

    ‘ What you do is beyond a performance. You re-plug us to the current. What you are doing is alive. It burns, caresses, consoles, re-awakens… You are like embers and the other day, I felt like kindling.’    -Muriel Maufroy (Author of Rumi’s Daughter)

    ‘ If you ever want to be reminded what it is to live and to love and you hear of this man performing this poetry – run there! '- Isabel Losada, Author of ‘For Tibet, With Love’ And ‘The Battersea Park Road to Enlightenment’

    The Labyrinth: A Cosmic Dance on Earth

    with Aya Husni Bey

    We will work with Form Drawing from Kutzli’s Creative Form Drawing Workbook 2, and focus on the Labyrinth. To journey through the Labyrinth we tread a path towards our inner world, and advance back out to the external environment transformed by our experience. We will explore the labyrinth in a variety of ways through drawing, movement and in clay. The clay process will assist us in letting go and trusting that the form is inherent within us, and as above, so below; we initiate the cosmic dance on the earth.

I have 25 years experience supporting the wellbeing of people of all ages, within their social, mental, emotional and physical means in Laos, North Africa, and for the UN in the Middle East, and I am currently running a Private Practice in the U.K. I am a carrying group member of the Association for Anthroposophical Therapeutic Arts (AATA), and a Core Group Member of The Alliance for Childhood.

    Who am I? Am I on my Path? How will my day become the Journey of Fulfilment? Then this Circle may be just the place for you;

    Developing inner resources for living a more conscious and creative life

    with Marjatta van Boeschoten and Adrian Locher

    Each of us has the capacity to reach a calm inner space, from where we can draw on our deepest resources to build strong foundations for life. Meditation helps us strengthen the quality of our attention, be more awake and present in the moment and open to fresh possibilities and horizons for the future. From this vantage point we can take up the multiple challenges of life with greater equanimity, resilience, insight and enthusiasm.

    In these six workshops, we will draw on indications and exercises given by Rudolf Steiner for developing a western, contemporary meditative practice. Each session will contain content, exercises and conversation and is suitable for both newcomers and those already experienced in meditative practice.

    Marjatta practised as a lawyer, then founded a management consultancy specialising in human development at work. She is the General Secretary of the Anthroposophical Society.

    Adrian Locher has a background in theatre and working with young adults. He is a Council member of the Anthroposophical Society and works at Rudolf Steiner House.

  • Friday 15 November
    7pm - 8.30pm

    with Dr Andrew Welburn

    The journey to the light - to the Sun, to the East - is one of the profoundest symbols of the inner path.  It has been quite literally a guiding power in human evolution, and remains a potent image of our cosmic responsibility for the future.  Andrew Welburn will help us focus on finding the inner Sun, our future goal, and also on the question of what we bring back to share with the present.  Strangely, we cannot really know if we have found the way unless we confirm it here and now!

    Andrew has been an academic in the fields of English Literature and biblical interpretation and history. A life-long Anthroposophist, he has written several books on Rudolf Steiner’s philosophy, esotericism, and Christianity, and on the prophet Zarathustra.

    All welcome, no need to book, no charge. Events are not recorded and Zoom meetings are limited to 100 participants. Voluntary donations towards costs are gratefully received and can be made by cash donation on the day, transfer to a Nationwide account held for this purpose or via PayPal.

    10am - 4pm

    with Sue Davies

    In this one day workshop we will be exploring Shame, the unresolved aspect of ourselves, our Shadow.  

    Working with pastels and watercolour, we will create a cradle of courage, forgiveness, kindness, trust and hope to enable the possibility of bringing shame compassionately into the light and be given a voice.  As you work with your shame you give the wound the air it needs to heal and then it becomes a scar - you can revisit it but the power and pain has gone. 

    No art experience necessary.

    Exploring the Mystery of Presence

    Workshop

    with Duncan Mackintosh

    ‘We are the mirror as well as the face in it

    We are tasting the taste this instant of Eternity

    We are pain and what cures pain both

    We are the sweet cold water

    And the jar the pours’

    - Rumi

    In this workshop, we will focus on contacting the pervading field of Presence - the formless ground and loving intelligence that is our source, our being, and the agent of our transformation...

    ...And create a welcoming crucible in which we can deepen our experience through simple practices of attention and enquiry, open to whatever each of us needs to experience and express.

    ‘...takes us to a place that is ordinarily hard to access... creates trust and safe boundaries to explore this beautiful arena of connecting with divine love/the presence’ - Sarah

    ‘Duncan's sessions on presence take place in a very warm loving atmosphere that encourages each group member to share their presence freely. We are discovering that love is our own Self!’ - Chris

  • Friday 22 November
    7pm - 8.30pm

    with Dr. Douglas Miller

    In the pre-dawn darkness of September 3, 1786, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe—already a celebrated author in Germany—departed his homeland for Italy. He had told only a very few friends about his plans, and he traveled under a pseudonym; he would not return until a year and a half later. He wrote about this journey: “I had a second birthday, a true rebirth, beginning with the day I entered Rome.” In our discussion we will consider what the roots of this quest for a “rebirth” were, and what the Italian journey meant for the many remaining years of Goethe’s personal life and his creative contributions in literature and science.

    Douglas is a retired professor of German at the University of Michigan–Flint in the United States; his research, publication, and lecturing has focused on Goethe’s accomplishments as a scientist and writer, as well as on the history and meaning of Rudolf Steiner and anthroposophy.

    with Trevor Dance

    We all experience the journey through earthly life, which is followed by another journey through the spiritual world, determining our requirements for our following incarnation. Karmic friendships form part of the itinerary, and it is fruitful to reference such a resounding partnership of J.W. Goethe and Friedrich Schiller in their life journeys when thinking of our own life paths and friendships.

    Trevor Dance is the author of, 'The Mystery of the Portal', about Steiner's first mystery drama, which focussed upon Goethe's fairy tale, 'The Green Snake and the Beautiful Lily' and is a member of The Printmaker's Council.

  • Friday 29 November 7.30pm - Sunday 5 January 7.30pm

    This ‘winning crossover mystery’ (The Guardian) returns to Baker Street for a third Christmas following two sold out runs!

    This critically acclaimed production has been loved by London audiences, bringing ‘a wonderful festive play to get the entire family in the Christmas spirit’ (Lost in Theatreland) that ‘entertains from start to finish’ (Broadway World).

    Three Christmases since the Reichenbach Falls, Sherlock Holmes has little appetite for mince pies or for solving crime. Wandering through Victorian London, he meets a grown-up and not-so-Tiny Tim Cratchit who implores him to investigate the mysterious death of his reformed benefactor, one Ebenezer Scrooge. 

    An impossible murder, a threatening letter, and a missing diamond – it’s just enough to intrigue the great detective. But it’s a dark and treacherous Christmas Eve, and once again the night is haunted by the spirits of the past, present, and future. Using his powers of deduction, can Holmes overcome his own ghosts to crack the case?

    7.30pm

    Nerina Pallot's career as an acclaimed singer-songwriter has always been filled with stories, songs, and sharp wit. Despite early career advice to maintain an enigmatic stage presence, Pallot embraced her natural inclination to engage and entertain her audience with candid anecdotes and humorous observations. Her manager may have fired her for it, but Pallot's fans have only grown more loyal.

    Two decades after her Ivor Novello and Brit nomination, Pallot brings her unique blend of monologue to her first one-woman show,I Digress. This isn't a typical stand-up routine, and it definitely isn't a concert. Instead, Pallot crafts an engaging experience that defies easy categorization, blending the intimacy of a solo performance with the charm of a raconteur.

    I Digress promises a night of laughter, reflection, and perhaps a song or two. Pallot's charismatic presence and sharp insights will keep you thoroughly entertained. Join her as she explores the space between comedy and concert, creating a fresh, unnamed genre you'll be talking about long after the show ends.

    Mandala: In Light of Self

    with Aya Husni Bey

    We will be approaching the Winter Solstice which is a &me when we are called to turn within and connect to our inner light. During these sessions we will work on creating a mandala. The Mandala begins with a centre, then grows and expands from the centre. Concurrently the layers of expansion in relation to the centre also contract, and hold the centre. The effect unveils the Self radiating outwardly, illuminating and secure.

    Aya Husni Bey, Transpersonal Art Counsellor MCGI MBACP, and HeartMath Coach. I have 25 years experience supporting the wellbeing of people of all ages, within their social, mental, emotional and physical means in Laos, North Africa, and for the UN in the Middle East, and I am currently running a Private Practice in the U.K. I am a carrying group member of the Association for Anthroposophical Therapeutic Arts (AATA), and a Core Group Member of The Alliance for Childhood.

    with Howard Smith

    What exactly are the chemical elements? Rudolf Steiner once referred to them as if they were individuals; living beings. So we can perhaps ask “WHO are the elements, and what do they have to tell us?” Some tell us of very ancient times, even before the earth evolution began. Some speak of the sun; others speak of the moon. In this talk we will explore the “biographies” of a few representative elements and try to discern what they say about our Earth and its spiritual origin.

    Howard is a life-long student of Anthroposophy. He has a PhD in Chemistry and worked as researcher into the properties of water and as a science teacher. He founded the Science Group of Anthroposophical Society in Great Britian and now works as a piano technical specialist.
