Luke Wright has become an institution at The Tolmen Centre and his almost yearly shows always attract a loyal audience – not least because he’s such a brilliant performer of the spoken word – be it it his heartfelt and sometimes polemical poems, or, usually after the interval, laugh-out-loud comedy. His new show ‘YES’ comes with the following description and a couple of reviews. "Luke Wright used to think he had the answers. Now he's not so sure. For twenty-five years, Fringe First winner Luke Wright has been writing poems that wrestle with the world around him. In this new show, he discovers that certainty is rarely as useful as he once thought. As children grow up, heroes become more complicated and old certainties begin to wobble, Wright finds himself looking again: at the country he lives in, the people he loves, and even those he thought he'd already made his mind up about. Part poetry, part stand-up Yes. is about changing your mind without losing your convictions – and staying open in an increasingly entrenched world. Luke Wright used to think he had the answers.

Shane Pendergast and Lucy Farrell

Falmouth The Tolmen Centre · Constantine

Lucy Farrell, a BBC Radio 2 Folk Award winner, is celebrated for her poetic songwriting, unconventional melodies, and the crystalline clarity of her voice. Known for her work with The Furrow Collective, Eliza Carthy and the Wayward Band, and a host of other acclaimed collaborations, Farrell has carved out a singular place in English folk with her elegant, understated tenor guitar and viola arrangements. Her solo work reveals a deep lyricism and a rare ability to make the strange feel familiar, and the familiar feel extraordinary. Shane Pendergast, hailing from Prince Edward Island, Canada, carries forward a long lineage of Maritime storytellers and songkeepers. A troubadour of the East Coast, his plainspoken yet profound songwriting has earned him recognition at folk festivals worldwide, as well as Contemporary Roots Album of the Year at the Music PEI Awards for Second Wind (2021). His 2025 release Winter Grace offers a deeply personal reflection on the joys and hardships of life in the Maritimes. Together, Farrell and Pendergast embody the living, breathing spirit of folk music: rooted in tradition, yet unafraid to tread new ground. With voices that echo across oceans, their colla...

Hannah Maxwell presents TURN YOUR F***ING PHONES OFF

Falmouth The Tolmen Centre · Constantine

Fresh from a sellout award-winning run at the Fringe this summer we welcome back Hannah with her acclaimed new show. The title sounds like an instruction, but is actually a note to self. It's her own phone she is worried about - the hold it has on her and the data she provides it with. As she goes into digital detox she retreats from doomscrolling and dopamine hits but has an even greater fear of what she sees as a fundamental assault on democracy. In this tremendous show she delivers this analysis with equal parts fervour and merriment! Here are some awards for this show from the Fringe: Fringe First, Stage Fringe Five, Bragi Award and List, LGBTQIA+ Award shortlist - and numerous four and five star reviews.
