A beautiful piece of theatre for the very young from Starcatchers. Come up the stairs, blow away the cobwebs and peep into the boxes. Who knows what might happen when the sleepy attic comes to life. Grandma and Lucy are up in the attic where all the memories are stored. Hidden in dusty containers at the top of the house, they have been waiting a long time to come out and play. Featuring live music and actors this show is for children aged 3 – 5, their parents and carers. Running time 45 mins

Following the success of CURIOUS SEED's award-winning production 'found' at the UHall in 2009, P U S H is the company's ambitious new full-length dance theatre performance. Conceived and directed by Christine Devaney – with her growing trademark of marrying expressive choreography and live music with poetic text and video images – P U S H involves a wall, a young girl and an ensemble whose ordinary extraordinary stories unfold and remind us to question what's important. What pushes you to move, to say something, to push back? This promises to be Curious Seed's most challenging and beautiful performance to date. 70 minutes (no interval)

Based on his latest album The Number 26 Bus To Paraguay, maverick concert guitarist Richard Durrant follows his successful Guitar Whisperer series of concerts with a show celebrating the life & music of Augustin Barrios, including, along the way, music by Django Reinhardt, Claude Debussy and Los Paraguayos. With his warm and easy rapport with audiences, Richard shares tales and music from his own musical journey and the inspiration he found in Paraguayan composer Barrios. The concert features animation and film projection and demonstrates just how far one man can expand the expressive range of the guitar. This show is light years from what you might expect a classical guitar recital to be.

Catch Phil on home turf – he lived in Findhorn for Years — for a show that's best described as zippy, euphoric, satisfying, sensical whimsy. After twenty-two Edinburgh festivals and eighteen Glastonburys, Phil is still breaking ground as a highly emotive touchy-feely, come-off-the-stage-and-cuddle-you type of comedian. He'll talk of living in England and hanging out with his 3-year-old, Lion. He's got a great Tiger Woods routine, one about buying machetes in a Venezuelan supermarket, and even more about Olympic hoovering and being rubbish on the TV show "QI" — twice.
