Our much-loved resident jazz band returns following a run of sell-out Jazz nights in 2025.

From 7.30pm, settle in as live jazz fills the theatre bar with atmosphere — the perfect backdrop for a relaxed, sociable evening.

The bar will be flowing, including prosecco, beautifully made cocktails, and seriously fancy non-alcoholic drinks, making this a perfect night for dates, friends, or anyone who enjoys their evenings a little more refined.

You can also order freshly prepared 12" hand stretched thin crust pizzas on the night, perfect for sharing (or not), for you to enjoy alongside the music.

And our signature Tiffin Tins are also available, elegant, grazing boxes designed to elevate your evening.

This month our special guest is Simon Spillett Over his twenty-five year career Simon Spillett has worn almost as many hats as it's possible to wear within jazz; multi-award-winning instrumentalist (BBC Jazz Awards, British Jazz Awards, Jazz Journal's Album of The Year), quartet and big band leader, recording artist, author, historian, record producer, archivist, magazine columnist and latterly blogger. However, for all these varied skills he identifies most strongly as a powerfully swinging, straight-ahead tenor saxophonist, one capable of taking the audiences who hear him on a roller-coaster ride encompassing everything from energetic bebop to heartfelt balladry. And it’s in this guise that he’s become a solid fixture on the UK jazz landscape, regularly playing sold-out gigs at major festivals (EFG London Jazz Festival, Brecon, Swanage, Scarborough, Wigan etc.) and world famous club venues (Ronnie Scott’s).

A charismatic performer, gifted with a dry observational wit, he’s never lost sight of the fact that jazz is entertainment as much as self-expression and whether playing, writing or articulately holding forth on his favourite subject – UK jazz history – he’s an infectiously passionate communicator.
