Gagarin Way

Set in a quiet Scottish town, Gagarin Way is a 90-minute rollercoaster of masculine disillusionment, ideological extremism, and pitch-black comedy. Almost 25 years since it was first seen in Edinburgh, Gagarin Way is still ‘a ton of theatrical dynamite’ and marked an explosive debut for its writer, Gregory Burke. It’s a taut, tense chamber piece that grips from the first minute and refuses to let go — a darkly comic hostage drama laced with philosophical bite, class rage, and existential dread.

Strong politics. Strong emotions. Strong language. Unforgettable theatre.

Please note the matinée performance on Saturday 4 October will be a Relaxed Performance​.

Next Jazz Chris Biscoe

FRIDAY 10 OCTOBER   Book Tickets

Chris Biscoe's Profiles Quartet

  • Chris Biscoe saxes and alto clarinet
  • Alcyona Mick piano
  • Larry Bartley bass
  • Winston Clifford drums

Chris Biscoe writes: “Jazz has always been a music about people and places, the connections, the routes (and roots) between, the meetings and the getting away.

“When I recorded some of the repertoire from my band Mingus Moves I realised how many of Charles Mingus’ compositions are dedications to musicians, friends and family, lovers and political enemies, not forgetting one toilet-trained cat. The CD was Profiles of Mingus, and this became the working name for the band.

“The Profiles Quartet draws on this tradition, expanding it to include compositions by other jazz greats, and something of the travel which is so significant a part of the life of working musicians."
 

Jazz at Progress is presented in association with Jazz in Reading.
