THEATRE: Cream Tea and Incest

4/17/2017

Picture
A new play by Benjamin Alborough opens at our theatre this week for 3 nights only: Cream Tea and Incest.

Murder! Death! Violence! Jeffrey and Eddie must learn the meaning of these words and more in this brand new Jeeves and Wooster parody. Cream Tea and Incest is a knockabout farce that blends the traditions of comedy theatre with the anarchy of live comedy in a unique, energetic style.

We follow Eddie Spangler, an inept, remorseless English gentleman and his loyal valet, Jeffrey, as a simple quest quickly deteriorates into a race against time when the Machiavellian forces of the aristocracy move to wreak their vengeance. Featuring delightful romantic misunderstandings, blood diamond trafficking, and the most realistic train-acting ever seen at The Bread and Roses Theatre.

Thursday 20th to Saturday 22nd April at 7.30pm. Tickets only £6 and two for £8! BOOK NOW!

THEATRE: Yes! Because...

4/5/2017

Picture
Dame June Bloom, semi-retired Shakespearean actor and scholar, travels the world sharing her experience and knowledge of Shakespeare performance with audiences far and wide.  She’s just arrived in town after an exhausting world tour, and is feeling the effects of time on her aged body and mind. Dame June uses wit and a finely tuned sense of the ridiculous (and a ukulele) to reminisce about her experience of life as an touring actor, a daughter and a mother; she sings, dances and draws fresh insights into the ageing process by means of a selection of highly apposite (and only slightly mangled) Shakespeare sonnets.

Join Dame June in her makeshift dressing room, as she prepares for what may well be her final performance…

Tuesday 4th to Saturday 8th April at 7.30pm only - BOOK NOW!
