House of Games
Celebrated psychoanalyst and author Dr Margaret Ford has a new client. Billy needs help: he’s addicted to sex, drugs and, most dangerously, gambling big money at an illicit poker lounge, the House of Games. Dr Ford also happens to be in search of subject matter for her next best-seller - a search which takes her deep into Chicago’s underworld and into the path of Mike, a charismatic gambler. A complex game commences, in which even the players themselves don’t know the rules, their roles, or who will be left holding the trump card... This gripping adaptation of David Mamet’s noir thriller comes from celebrated playwright Richard Bean, who returns to Hampstead following Reykjavik, To Have and To Hold and Kiss Me. Director Jonathan Kent also returns to Hampstead where his productions have included Double Feature, Good People and The Forest.

Atsuo The Pineapple Donkey
"Atsuo the Pineapple Donkey is a fresh and exciting name that's recently popped up in the electronic music scene, with a journey as unconventional as his moniker. What started as a quirky name for his hostel in Kyushu, Japan, has evolved into a persona captivating festival-goers with synth-driven sounds. Originally rooted in the punk and rock scenes of the '90s, Atsuo took a surprising turn toward electronic music during the pandemic. Despite not being deeply connected to the electronic genre initially, Atsuo's free-spirited approach and unrestrained creativity have led him to perform at international festivals like Belgium's Paradise City and the Netherlands’ De Weide. With a growing fanbase and a determination to push his boundaries, Atsuo the Pineapple Donkey's transformation from hostel owner to rising musician is a tale of exploration, chance, and unstoppable creative drive.” - Mixmag Asia Presented by The Jazz Cafe.
