SUMMARY:Malvern Hills Literary Loop: Tolkien\, Lewis\, Darwin & Dickens
DESCRIPTION:Legendary fantasy authors JRR Tolkien and CS Lewis were frequent visitors to the Malvern Hills around the middle of the 20th century and the distinctive landscape may have inspired features of Middle Earth and Narnia\, like the Giant’s Cave from the Hobbit and the Victorian gas lamps from The Lion\, the Witch & the Wardrobe. \nA century earlier\, authors Charles Darwin and Charles Dickens visited Malvern for the Water Cure and most of the treatment centres and guest houses still remain. \nThe Malvern Hills Literary Loop starts at the Mr. Tumnus bench in Priory Park and heads up past Knotsford House where Dickens stayed to Lewis’s former school Cherbourg House before pausing at the Lewis Memorial in Rosebank Gardens and following the gas lamps up to St. Ann’s Well cafe. \nAfter admiring the views around North Hill\, the trail descends to Alexandra Rd where Lewis’s close friend & biographer George Sayers lived\, opposite the former home of composer Edward Elgar. \nThe loop then heads up past Montreal House where Darwin stayed during his daughter’s treatment and past Lewis & Tolkien’s favourite pub The Unicorn Inn before passing the Hobbit door and down to Malvern Priory to find Anne Darwin’s grave and potentially the original Narnian gas lamp. \nDates and booking\nThe walks are available on many dates\, often with the option of two start times on the same day. For more information\, including prices\, availability and to book. visit the Malvern Hills Literary Loop: Tolkien\, Lewis\, Darwin & Dickens page on Airbnb.

SUMMARY:Who Do You Really Think You Are? (Festival of Ideas)
DESCRIPTION:Join geneticist and broadcaster\, Adam Rutherford\, as he takes his genetics shears and history axe in hand and pollards\, prunes and chops down some of the (genealogy\, family and evolution) trees we take for granted\, and plants much better ones. \nThe tree of life is the most wondrous demonstration of evolution in all its magnificent splendour. Except it’s not a tree at all. Genealogy and family trees are the ties that bind us to our ancestors\, descendants and local history. They’re not trees either. And the story of human evolution is our species’s family tree: guess what? Also not a tree. The whole of life on Earth is a tangled bank\, and it can be guaranteed that in this talk you will discover your royal heritage. \nWarning: contains a small bit of maths.

SUMMARY:Unbound (12A) with Live Q&A (Borderlines Film Festival)
DESCRIPTION:DIRECTORS: John English\, Tom Garner\nSPAIN\, 2024\, 1 HOUR 32 MINUTES\, ENGLISH \nDiscrimination\, body shaming and violence. This is ballet in 2025. \nBut a group of defiant dancers\, survivors of industry abuse\, want to form a radical\, diverse company that opens its doors to others who have suffered abuse\, and give these talented\, traumatised survivors a chance to fight back\, on stage.

The dancers are brave\, but young and deeply fragile. They must confront their traumas and find belief\, if they are ever to take the stage again. \nIt is a journey of pain\, hope\, and above all resistance – to fight for justice\, change lives\, and create groundbreaking\, liberated ballet – one choreographed step at a time. \nIntroduced by directors John English and Tom Garner with a Q&A to follow \nShow Times\n*Film starts at advertised time*\nSaturday 8th March at 4.15pm\nVenue: Forum Theatre

SUMMARY:Monstrous Anger of the Guns (Malvern Festival of Ideas)
DESCRIPTION:We are seeing injustices caused by war and occupation unfold in real-time via social media\, and we are speaking out in our millions against these horrors. Yet\, from Gaza to Ukraine\, the bombs continue to fall. We must understand why this is happening if we are to end it. \nMonstrous Anger of the Guns lays bare the dark and deceitful world of the global arms trade\, which\, often funded in our name\, is a business that counts its profits in billions and its losses in human lives. Leading activists and campaigners connect the dots\, showing how notions of citizenship\, democracy and trust in governments are misguided\, and how we can fight back by building mass movements\, using direct action and legal justice to end the flow of weapons and the environmental and human devastation they bring. \nIn this session\, Jeremy Corbyn\, Founder of the Peace and Justice Project\, exposes the ‘market of death’ and tells the stories of a diverse range of inspiring campaigns from around the world opposing militarism and the arms trade that feeds it. \nSuitable for: All ages

SUMMARY:Nickel Boys (15) (Borderlines Film Festival)
DESCRIPTION:BORDERLINES FILM FESTIVAL \nDIRECTOR: RaMell Ross\nSTARRING: Ethan Herisse\, Brandon Wilson\, Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor\nUS\, 2024\, 2 HOURS 20 MINUTES\, ENGLISH\nAD AUDIO DESCRIPTION AVAILABLE \nA superlative adaptation of Colson Whitehead’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel tells the story of Elwood\, a black teen sent to the hellish Nickel Academy. \nElwood befriends fellow student Turner and together they find a way to squirrel hope against the odds. \nDocumentary maker RaMell Ross launches into feature filmmaking with this audacious and profoundly moving tale of a mid-century reform school\, based on a notorious real-life institution. He uses an entirely visual means to explore not only what happened\, but also how it felt\, finding a new language to speak about the long shadow of trauma\, one that leaves cliché behind. \nPushing the painful to the margins\, just as its characters do\, this is impressive filmmaking. \n“How often do you watch something so original\, it changes the way you think about image construction itself?” Sophie Monks Kaufman\, Time Out \nThe screening on Sunday is sponsored by MALVERN BOOK COOPERATIVE \nShow Times\n*Film starts at advertised time*\nSaturday 8th March at 7.15pm\nSunday 9th March at 7.15pm\nVenue: Cinema

SUMMARY:Citizen Fish\, Jess Silk and Skewwhiff Acoustic
DESCRIPTION:Versatile Arts and MuMu Audio have put together an excellent fun-filled line-up at Malvern Cube on Saturday 8 March 2025. \nCitizen Fish have been active since 1990. With their blend of Ska\, reggae and punk\, Citizen Fish do not emphasize raw political statements but focus on issues of social alienation and human interaction\, viewed through a more optimistic lens. In a fun-loving way\, Citizen Fish (as with their previous outfits Culture Shock and the Subhumans) have brought radical politics to generations of questioning minds. They offer a hopeful\, danceable alternative. Citizen Fish have established an open and always growing family. The unifying tone of Dick’s lyrics coupled with the driving catchy riffs of the band appeals to a wide variety of people. \nSkewwhiff Acoustic: Mark and Beanie\, the creative heartbeat of the post-punk band Skewwhiff\, have forged a unique path in the music world with their dynamic acoustic duo performances. The pair\, known for their seamless chemistry and emotive delivery\, breathe new life into Skewwhiff’s back catalogue with reworked acoustic arrangements\, alongside fresh\, specially-written acoustic tracks that captivate the audience. \nJess Silk is a guitarist\, singer and songwriter from the Black Country. Her shouty but melodic brand of folk/punk music often has her being likened to a female Frank Turner or Billy Bragg\, and it gets people sitting up and listening. Armed only with an increasingly sticker-covered acoustic guitar and a distinctive\, gravelly voice that many don’t expect\, Jess plays to audiences up and down the UK and has shared stages with many well known names among the folk/punk scene. \nDoors open at 7.45pm and concert starts at 8pm. \nTickets: £13 in advance from Ticketsource or £15 on the door.

SUMMARY:Malvern Hills Literary Loop: Tolkien\, Lewis\, Darwin & Dickens
DESCRIPTION:Legendary fantasy authors JRR Tolkien and CS Lewis were frequent visitors to the Malvern Hills around the middle of the 20th century and the distinctive landscape may have inspired features of Middle Earth and Narnia\, like the Giant’s Cave from the Hobbit and the Victorian gas lamps from The Lion\, the Witch & the Wardrobe. \nA century earlier\, authors Charles Darwin and Charles Dickens visited Malvern for the Water Cure and most of the treatment centres and guest houses still remain. \nThe Malvern Hills Literary Loop starts at the Mr. Tumnus bench in Priory Park and heads up past Knotsford House where Dickens stayed to Lewis’s former school Cherbourg House before pausing at the Lewis Memorial in Rosebank Gardens and following the gas lamps up to St. Ann’s Well cafe. \nAfter admiring the views around North Hill\, the trail descends to Alexandra Rd where Lewis’s close friend & biographer George Sayers lived\, opposite the former home of composer Edward Elgar. \nThe loop then heads up past Montreal House where Darwin stayed during his daughter’s treatment and past Lewis & Tolkien’s favourite pub The Unicorn Inn before passing the Hobbit door and down to Malvern Priory to find Anne Darwin’s grave and potentially the original Narnian gas lamp. \nDates and booking\nThe walks are available on many dates\, often with the option of two start times on the same day. For more information\, including prices\, availability and to book. visit the Malvern Hills Literary Loop: Tolkien\, Lewis\, Darwin & Dickens page on Airbnb.

SUMMARY:X Marks the Spot (Festival of Ideas)
DESCRIPTION:Unearthing the physical remains of our past is a quintessential human itch – seen in every society from the ancients through to today. But the stories behind archaeological exploration and discovery – what we seek when\, what we end up finding\, and what we then do with it – tell us as much about ourselves today as they do about the past. \nThrough sensational stories of discovery\, Professor Michael Scott explores the evolution of modern archaeology from colonial expeditions to today’s cutting-edge science\, revealing traps\, curses and buried treasure along the way. We uncover why different periods and places have caught our attention and imaginations at different points in history. We meet the characters\, some celebrated and some forgotten\, who made world-famous discoveries like the Rosetta Stone\, the Terracotta Warriors and Machu Picchu. We consider ancient human footprints\, astounding shipwrecks\, mythical princesses and surprising rituals as insights into the wonders of past civilisations. And we explore how archaeological discoveries have often become emblems of modern fascinations and dilemmas.

SUMMARY:Malvern Hills Literary Loop: Tolkien\, Lewis\, Darwin & Dickens
DESCRIPTION:Legendary fantasy authors JRR Tolkien and CS Lewis were frequent visitors to the Malvern Hills around the middle of the 20th century and the distinctive landscape may have inspired features of Middle Earth and Narnia\, like the Giant’s Cave from the Hobbit and the Victorian gas lamps from The Lion\, the Witch & the Wardrobe. \nA century earlier\, authors Charles Darwin and Charles Dickens visited Malvern for the Water Cure and most of the treatment centres and guest houses still remain. \nThe Malvern Hills Literary Loop starts at the Mr. Tumnus bench in Priory Park and heads up past Knotsford House where Dickens stayed to Lewis’s former school Cherbourg House before pausing at the Lewis Memorial in Rosebank Gardens and following the gas lamps up to St. Ann’s Well cafe. \nAfter admiring the views around North Hill\, the trail descends to Alexandra Rd where Lewis’s close friend & biographer George Sayers lived\, opposite the former home of composer Edward Elgar. \nThe loop then heads up past Montreal House where Darwin stayed during his daughter’s treatment and past Lewis & Tolkien’s favourite pub The Unicorn Inn before passing the Hobbit door and down to Malvern Priory to find Anne Darwin’s grave and potentially the original Narnian gas lamp. \nDates and booking\nThe walks are available on many dates\, often with the option of two start times on the same day. For more information\, including prices\, availability and to book. visit the Malvern Hills Literary Loop: Tolkien\, Lewis\, Darwin & Dickens page on Airbnb.

SUMMARY:On Voice and the Feeling of Truth (Malvern Festival of Ideas)
DESCRIPTION:Join novelist\, poet and playwright Owen Sheers as he concludes our weekend with readings and conversation around his attempts to move beyond a partial truth through engaging with ideas of hybridity\, lyricism and voice. \nIn this final session of the 2025 event\, Professor Owen Sheers will read from three of his recent works\, the verse-drama Pink Mist and the BBC film-poems The Green Hollow and To Provide All People. His reading will be interspersed with conversation about the creative processes involved in creating these works\, all three of which engage with ideas of hybridity\, lyricism and voice to try and move beyond a partial ‘knowing’ of the truth towards a fuller ‘feeling’ of it. Blending documentary and poetic devices\, Owen uses the voices of characters informed by multiple interviews to create communal works that address such subjects as the aftermath of conflict\, the Aberfan disaster\, and the NHS. The nature of such subjects is that the truth of individual experience at their core is often anonymised in more general public narratives. By shaping his writing around composite characters\, many voices and alternating perspectives\, Owen is able to write in counterflow to this anonymisation\, engaging rhythm\, rhyme and imagery to create a strangely intimate lyrical distance through which the gap between a reader and the experiences they are reading is\, paradoxically\, narrowed to great emotional effect. \nSuitable for: 12 years and up

SUMMARY:La Cocina (15) PREVIEW (Borderlines Film Festival)
DESCRIPTION:DIRECTOR: Alonso Ruizpalacios\nSTARRING: Raúl Briones\, Rooney Mara\, Anna Diaz\, Motell Foster\nUS/MEXICO\, 2024\,\n2 HOURS 19 MINUTES\,\nENGLISH/SPANISH + ENGLISH SUBTITLES \nTensions simmer in a busy Times Square restaurant where back-of-house staff chase the American dream. \nHere\, in fine-grained black and white\, is the pressure cooker of the modern professional kitchen\, shifting away from haute cuisine to the phenomenally tough lives of the immigrant workers who keep the line running. Newcomer Estela pitches up seeking work on a day when money goes missing\, with swaggerer Pedro the prime suspect. Meanwhile\, hostess Julia grapples with her own commitments. \nDerived from Arnold Wesker’s play\, The Kitchen\, but informed by Ruizpalacios’ own experiences\, this microcosm of contemporary capitalism teeters on the edge of total chaos. \n“The Bear on steroids” Deadline \nPreview courtesy of Picturehouse Entertainment \nThe screening on Thursday in Malvern is sponsored by BAR LIMÓN \nShow Times\n*Film starts at advertised time*\nThursday 6th March at 7.30pm – FORUM\nSunday 9th March at 4pm – CINEMA
