Theatre
Address: Jewry Street, Winchester, Hampshire, SO23 8SB Telephone: Box office: 01962 840440 Event: Flabbergast Theatre: Endgame - 7.30pm - Bold and muscular with haunting physicality and razor-sharp comedy, this gripping staging of Samuel Beckett's Endgame brings the playwright's bleak poetic masterpiece vividly to life. In a dying world, four survivors cling to routine, memory and one another as time slowly runs out. Brutal humour and stark poetry collide in a raw, visually striking production blending precision physical theatre with Beckett's savage wit. Devastating, hilarious and strangely tender, this fearless interpretation captures the dark comedy and haunting humanity of one of theatre’s greatest modern classics.

Live music
Address: 15 Kings Walk, Winchester, Hampshire, SO23 8AF Telephone: 01962 808533 Event: ESSY SPARROW & JEMIMA COULTER - 8pm - Line-up Change Please note a change to the evening's line-up. Unfortunately, Lily Lyons is no longer able to perform alongside Essy Sparrow. While we're sorry that Lily can no longer join us, we're delighted to welcome Jemima Coulter, who will now be performing with Essy Sparrow. Essy Sparrow is a multi-disciplinary artist and songwriter creating gossip-filled nostalgic indie folk from her coastal studio in Cornwall. In 2025 she played Boardmasters with BBC Introducing, supported Tors and Semler, joined Lily Lyons in opening for The Staves and sold out her 200-cap London headline at St Mary with All Souls. Jemima Coulter is a multi-disciplinary artist working in impressionistic, dreamlike territory, turning disconnection and uncertainty into something stranger and more magical. Alongside their work with Hailaker, Coulter writes and produces largely alone at home, weaving studio recordings with iPhone voice memos and layering vocals over synths, piano, and guitar to create something intimate, playful, and entirely their own.
