6th-14th November 2026
Southport Little Theatre, Hoghton Street, Southport
It is 1975, and the hunt for the Yorkshire Ripper is consuming the Millgarth police station in Leeds. With the eyes of the nation watching, Sergeant Megan Winterburn and her team struggle to manage a mountain of paperwork, thousands of tip-offs, and the immense pressure of an investigation that seems to be slipping through their fingers.
This gripping drama goes behind the headlines to reveal the human cost of a flawed investigation in the pre-digital age. It is a haunting exploration of the detectives who lived and breathed the case, battling institutional bias and their own exhaustion in a desperate bid to catch a killer before he strikes again.

As lead singer and songwriter of The Stranglers during their golden period, Hugh Cornwell cast a spell mixing fact, history, mythology and ideology within the lyrics of the songs. It was a heady mix, leading to the band’s success throughout the world, and they became championed for experimentation and commerciality in equal measures.
Hugh was responsible for all the band’s most memorable songs across ten stellar albums that consolidated his stature as a unique songwriter and musician. His lyrics to Golden Brown are a songwriting masterclass.
