SUMMARY:Quiet time -reading hour
DESCRIPTION:A quiet time … in a library ?  \n\n\n\nYes \, controversial—we know!  But we’re setting aside a special time and space just for quiet reading in the library. \n\n\n\nWe’re usually a hub of activity\, with events\, classes\, and school visits filling the space with energy. But sometimes\, we all long for a little calm… \n\n\n\nJoin us – sit back\, relax\, and lose yourself in a good book for an hour or so. There’ll be the option to chat about books with fellow readers and library staff—but no pressure at all. \n\n\n\nJust bring your book (or find one here!) and enjoy the quiet.

SUMMARY:Live@TheLibrary: Tell Me Where It Hurts
DESCRIPTION:Award-winning production company Teepee Productions presents Tell Me Where It Hurts. \n\n\n\n\nThis powerful comedy-drama follows Chrissy\, a dedicated drama teacher navigating life with premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). She is determined to stage the school play while also mentoring Annie\, a talented yet troubled student who is auditioning for a prestigious performing arts school. As both women wrestle with their own bodies and emotions\, they find themselves facing a shared struggle… the feeling of being unheard and misunderstood by the world around them. At the same time\, Chrissy is grappling with tensions in her personal life\, particularly with her partner\, Nathan\, who longs for a child\, a desire that clashes with her own uncertainties. The play sheds light on the resilience required to manage women’s health issues in a world that often fails to recognise them. \nPrevious audience reactions:“Gripped from start to finish”“Everyone should see this”“Relatable & truthful. Very human” \nTrigger warnings: Exploration of mental health\, references to suicide and self-harm\, strong language. Recommended for ages 14+.
