Till The Stars Come Down
It’s Sylvia and Marek’s big day and the Stone family have gathered in Mansfield. The bride, her sisters and aunties are getting their glam on and everyone’s on their best behaviour. For now. But once the vows have been made and the drinks start flowing, deep-seated family resentments begin to bubble up. When secrets start spilling out, alliances shift, and by the end of the night, nothing will ever be quite the same again. Funny, relatable and deeply moving, this brilliant night out explores what happens when we’re forced to choose between family, and love.
Beth Steel’s Olivier-nominated, uproariously funny family drama comes to Nottingham for the first time in this regional premiere. Beth Steel is an award-winning playwright. Wonderland, her critically acclaimed play, won her the Evening Standard Theatre Award for Most Promising Playwright, was a finalist for the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize and had its regional premiere at Nottingham Playhouse. Till the Stars Come Down was nominated for 2 Olivier Awards and transferred from the National to the West End in 2025.

The Space Between the Sheets
After relocating to the UK in search of a bigger and bright future for her acting career, Robin meets a writer, Aaron, on a night out who could change her world forever. As they navigate their cultural differences and personal experiences, they’re forced to ask: is this a love story, or just a really complicated hookup?
As the night unfolds, they confront the complexities of young love and the search for true intimacy, where every embrace reveals a new truth – and even the darkest secrets are unveiled in the most sacred of places.
