From the files of Scotland Yard come these startling stage adaptations of infamous true-life nineteenth century crimes. During the course of this macabre performance, you'll encounter many nefarious individuals from late Victorian London, such as the infamous Whitechapel Murderer Henry Wainwright. He murdered his mistress in a particularly bloodthirsty manner, and hoped to escape justice. However, the dismembered corpse of Harriet Lane refused to stay hidden.
You will also meet the Lambeth Poisoner Dr Thomas Neill Cream, the sadistic serial killer and possibly the dreaded Jack the Ripper also. His murder spree on both sides of the Atlantic made his name a byword for horror.
The company is now in its fifteenth year of touring. We are one of the UK's busiest and hardest-working small-scale theatre companies, and we are unique in that we specialise solely in original adaptations of classic Victorian and Edwardian popular fiction, and stageworks based on actual events from that era.

THE EMERALD DAWN are a multi-instrumentalist, eclectic, melodic progressive rock quartet, who combine elements from classical music, jazz, folk and rock to produce their own original, distinctive and exciting sound—a sound that is cinematic, epic, experimental and powerful. Usually haunting, often beautifully melodic and always highly atmospheric, the music of The Emerald Dawn paints images or tells stories that stimulate the imagination and takes the listener on unforgettable musical journeys.
The Emerald Dawn have been making huge waves in the UK prog scene over the past few years, having made it into the top ten in both the Best Band/Artist and Best Album categories in the 2023 annual Prog Magazine Readers' Poll. The band won the best performance vote at HRH Prog XII in 2023, the largest prog festival in the UK. This summer the band will be headlining at the 2024 Soundle music festival. The Emerald Dawn's latest album 'In Time' won the Prog Explorations Plus award for the Best Album of 2023. The Prog Mind ranked the band's keyboard player's performance fourth, the band's guitarist's performance second, the band's bass player's performance second, and the band's drummer's performance best in the world. In addition, the listeners of Progphonic and Game of Prog voted The Emerald Dawn 's vocalist runner up in the Best Female Vocalist category.
The Emerald Dawn comprise Tree Stewart (keyboards, flute, acoustic guitar, and vocals), Ally Carter (guitar, tenor and soprano saxophones, and keyboards), David Greenaway (6-string fretless and fretted bass guitars), and Tom Jackson (drums). The Emerald Dawn was originally formed in Edinburgh, Scotland, by multi-instrumentalists, Tree Stewart and Ally Carter, before moving to St Ives in the far south west of England, where they were joined by jazz drummer Tom Jackson and, more recently, by bass player David Greenaway.

Spriggan MIst
Spriggan Mist are a band from Bracknell, UK. Formed by husband and wife Baz and Maxine Cilia in 2008, their music generally stems from folk rock but they are much more diverse than that, often extending into classic and progressive rock. Their live shows are quite theatrical, enhanced by Pagan costumes and the Jadoo-Tribal Dance team.
