JEREMY HARDY
Off The Kerb
Jeremy is perhaps best remembered as a much younger man,
but there is nothing he can do about that now. Still alive
and able to speak unaided for lengthy periods, this show
will be not so much be a one-man show as an under-staffed
cavalcade.
One of the sharpest comedians on the circuit - The Guardian
Hilarious, detailed, gently self-depreciating act from a
stand-up comic in complete control - The Independent
One minute lewd, the next blimpish, the next acerbic, he
is always one step wide of insult and one ahead of expectation
- The Financial Times
Friday 2nd October 8pm
Tickets: £15, £10 (conc.)

FASCINATING AIDA
Happy Birthday Fascinating Aida!
Britain’s top female comedy trio are 25 years old.
Well, actually, they’re older than that (Dillie Keane
formed FA in 1983), but the girls have decided their Silver
Jubilee can be celebrated for a few more years at least.
For those of you who thought they’d retired, this
isn’t a comeback; it’s a chance for you to help
them celebrate this auspicious birthday. They’re doing
it for the fun, not the money, which will soon be worthless
anyway. Dillie, Adele and Liza look forward to entertaining
you with some new songs. Thrill to the beauty of the harmonies,
marvel at the intricate rhymes and, if you’re one
of their older fans, remember to switch your hearing aid
to the theatre’s loop system to avoid unpleasant whistling.
EARLY BOOKING ADVISED.

CINDERELLA
European Ballet
This most enchanting and delightful of all fairy tales is
brought to life by European Ballet, one of the most popular
and highly praised touring ballet companies. Under the direction
of Stanislav Tchassov, former Principal dancer of The Bolshoi
Ballet, this exciting and dynamic company of international
first-class dancers has endeared itself to audiences and
critics alike for its commitment to excellent artistic standards
and for the dedication and energy of its talented dancers.
The ballet is beautifully set to Serge Prokofiev's magnificent
score and enhanced by sumptuous sets and over 45 handcrafted
romantic costumes. It captures all the charm of the much
loved story with the romance of Cinderella and the Prince,

elegance of the Ball. A wonderful blend of exquisite solos,
pas de deux and grand ensembles

TANGO! TANGO!
From London’s West End
Award winning musician and author, Justin Pearson has created
Tango! Tango!, a show that transports its
audience into the world of Buenos Aires and that strictly
passionate, and most intimate of dances, the Tango. Tango
carries with it a sexy and sophisticated image, and has
evolved from the many "salons" both in Argentina
and abroad. This thriving underworld dances through the
night in hidden clubs but in this show, explodes with colour
and movement that is simply irresistible. The great genius
of the medium, Astor Piazzolla is depicted as a passionate
composer, an outsider who fought, connived and survived
for his music. Alongside actor Patrick Lannigan, are five
great musicians - Tango Volcano (“These guys are magnificent!"
BBC London Radio), and dancers Richard Manuel and Maria
Solero. The melancholy voice of the bandoneon provides the
authentic sound of the tango, and includes some of the great
tangos from the Golden Era.
