The Ballad of Maria Marten

The Ballad of Maria Marten

8 Sept 2025 - 13 Sept 2025

by Beth Flintoff Summer, 1827. In a red barn in Suffolk, Maria Marten awaits her lover. A year later, hidden in a grain sack under the barn floor, Marias body is found barely identifiable and the manhunt begins. The Red Barn Murder had all the hallmarks of a classic crime drama: a missing body, a disreputable squire, and a rural village stuck in its age-old traditions. But whilst it sent shockwaves throughout the country, Marias own story was lost. The Ballad of Maria Marten rediscovers that story, bringing it back to vivid, urgent life.

by Topher Payne Its 1950 and a new colour has been added to the Red Scare: lavender. Two US State Department employees, Bob and Norma, have been tasked with identifying sexual deviants within their ranks. Theres just one problem: both Bob and Norma are gay and have married each others partners as a carefully constructed cover. Inspired by the true story of the earliest stirrings of the American gay rights movement, classic sitcom gives way to provocative drama as two All-American couples are forced to stare down the closet door.
