Description
The longest night is upon us, and the Tom Thumb will be transformed into a dark ballroom as three of the South East's finest folk acts guide you through the turning of the year, as the sun is reborn and slowly begins its journey back to splendour.
Nick Lawrence draws from the well of traditional and contemporary folk to compose his songs. His compositions evoke images of centuries gone by, be that wassailing in the winter, the re-telling of Viking raids in Kent, or spurned love.
The Witchcraft & Vagrancy Act seek to unearth the sinister side of folk music. Wailing fiddles and 3-part harmonies encounter aching drones and electric guitars in an exploration of historical music and the macabre.
Green Diesel blends traditional balladry with psychedelic and prog textures. Their hypnotic sound—violin, electric guitar, folklore-infused lyrics—has earned critical acclaim and UK Folk Top 40 success. With five albums and a captivating live presence, they’ve shared stages with the New Eves, Fotheringay, and more.
Bar opens at 5 pm, Theatre doors 6.15 pm

The Tom Thumb Theatre: A New Era of Magic by the Sea
Nestled in the heart of Cliftonville, Margate, the Tom Thumb Theatre has long been a beloved artistic gem by the sea. Originally built as a Victorian coach house, it was transformed in 1984 into one of the smallest theatres in the world — a curious and captivating blend of Japanese and Alpine architecture, with velvet seats, flocked wallpaper, and an atmosphere unlike anywhere else.
Now under the creative direction of Allyson Morgan Jones, the Tom Thumb is entering an exciting new chapter, bringing bold, imaginative programming to this beautifully intimate space. Alongside its roots in theatre, comedy, music, cabaret, poetry and film, the theatre is expanding its offering with immersive events, unique experiences, and bespoke private hires, all while continuing to champion emerging voices and experimental work.
Venue
Tom Thumb Theatre, 2A Eastern Esplanade, CT9 2LB Margate
