The taster sessions are fast, furious and fun! They’re a great chance to see which shows appeal to you. Each lunchtime session features five-minute extracts from 12 different shows.

The taster sessions are free, so pop-in, grab a drink and see what catches your attention. They always throw up surprises - shows that might not have made an impression on the page suddenly become must-sees in the flesh.

This year we have two NEW venues for the taster sessions. The sessions on Wednesday 24 and Thursday 25 June are being held at Poncho Bar and Cantina (18 on the map) and the one on Friday 26 June will be at Boston Tea Party (13 on the map).
