Broadsides bring to life the classic tale of Heidi, the irrepressible little girl with a big heart who changes the lives of all she meets. 
But this stage adaptation has a twist. The story is seen through the eyes of a band of unruly goats.
Sent to live with her stern Grandfather in the Swiss Alps, Heidi learns about the mountain way of life but is soon unhappily torn from it to go and live in the big city as a companion to the wealthy invalid, Clara.  How will Heidi cope in the stiff formality of the rich household? Will she ever see her beloved Grandfather and her best friend Goat Peter ever again?   Will the goats ever behave?!

Heidi – a goats tale

Accidental Death of an Anarchist
by Dario Fo
A new adaptation by Deborah McAndrew




Accidental Death























A man has “fallen” to his death from a window whilst in police custody. Accidents happen, but did he jump or was he pushed?
And what is the significance of the ill-fated Mancunian Salsa dancer?

Brace yourselves for an evening of riotous political farce and sparkling satire as Northern Broadsides brings you Dario Fo's comic tour de force, Accidental Death of an Anarchist.

A brilliant expose of police corruption rooted in real events in 1960s Italy – this contemporary adaptation brings the play closer to home, to northern England, and revels in Dario Fo’s anarchic genius.
