Fellowship Square
The grounds of Fellowship Square will be filled with laughter on Saturday 31 July as our friends at Soho Theatre host a special one day "takeover".
The day will include comedy labs to inspire budding comics, performances for all the family including local social enterprise Haven Coffee, whose stage show "Laffuccino" features a line-up of very talented comedians from Refugee and Migrant backgrounds (no tickets necessary, simply turn-up) and a special comedy show curated by Soho Theatre themselves. Tickets for this top night are limited and cost £5 with proceeds going to WF Mayor's chosen charity.
Food and drink from local vendors Pillars Brewery, Hanoi ca Phe, Last Night a Vegan Saved my Life, La Gelatiera, Fellowship Foods and Ruttle and Row will be available throughout the day to keep your energy levels topped up. Or bring your own picnic to enjoy from your chosen spot on the grass around the Square.
Please note: Seating for all performances is 'picnic style' so bring a blanket/rug to sit on. For those with wheelchairs a dedicated viewing area will be available. Alcohol is not permitted in the Square unless it is bought on site.
