ENG-ER-LAND!!!eng-er-land

It's 1997, the last year England made it to the semifinals of Euro 96.  Gina G came third in Eurovision' and 13 year old Lizzi went to her first inperson football game, Coventry vs Manchester  City.  Not the Man City of today, all oil and superstars,  but the old Man City, a bit rubbish but with good fans.  Lizzi fell in love with the beautiful game that day and she's been obsessed ever since.  But then something  happens to make her question her place  in the stands. ENG-ER-LAND is an energetic play about who's really on your team.


Combining storytelling,  dance and music with 1990s nostalgia.  Hanna's ENG-ER-LAND had it's premier in June 2021 with a sellout run in London's West End before touring the country including the National Football Museum.

 

Hannah says  "there are things in the show that people of all ages and from all backgrounds will identify with.   It's fun and refreshing and  you don't need to like football!

Saturday 26th November Broadoak village hall.  Bar and refreshments from 6.30.  show starts 7.30

Tickets £10, under 18  £5,. Family £25

The Tim Kliphuis Trio – The Five Elements

Classically trained Dutch violinist Tim Kliphuis first made his name playing with acclaimed European gypsy guitarists, before developing a more personal style that has taken him on a busy touring schedule around the world.
Now widely regarded as the inheritor of the Stéphane Grappelli crown, Kliphuis breathes new life into existing styles with his high-energy brand of classical, Gypsy Jazz, Celtic and world music.
His improvised sound is totally new, yet steeped in tradition. Together with Nigel Clark on guitar and Roy Percy on double bass, the Tim Kliphuis Trio re-defines the music of many well-known composers to create an intensely moving concert experience. The trio return to tour Dorset through Artsreach in January with their new big piece “The Five Elements”, written and recorded in lockdown.
Expect a high-energy brand of music inspired by classical and gypsy jazz; and of course, expect the usual mix of Django, Richard Strauss and Chieftains!

Bec Applebee’s acclaimed solo physical theatre show ‘Oh Mary!’ is based on the incredible life story of Mary Bryant, telling the true story of an 18th century Cornish Highway woman who survived the raw brutality of life as a convict, sailing halfway around the world to Australia.

Mary is at the heart of one of Maritime’s greatest escapes.
This is an epic, little known story of personal strength, bravery, loss and of an indomitable human spirit.

Bec is well known for her work with internationally acclaimed companies.
The show features a driving soundtrack recorded by bands Dalla and Radjel,
with narrative by Anna Murphy (Kneehigh, BBC Radio 4),
choreography by Helen Tiplady (Cscape Dance, HFC)

More information about the childrens show we are putting on in the Hall on Tuesday 27th  October:- 

Angel Heart & Rattlebox Theatre – Freya: a Viking Saga – suitable for children 4+

Freya, a Viking girl and friend of the gods, is in a bit of a pickle; she’s about to become a giant’s dinner! Freya must use all her wits to escape old Gorm's cooking pot. The rivalry between the Norse gods and the Frost Giants is brought humorously to life in this colourful re-telling of two famous Viking myths and Freya’s own saga as Angel Heart and Rattlebox Theatre go 'a-roving' together through the Viking world. This delightful family puppet show is full of boisterous gods, dunderheaded giants and the music of the fjords.

Plus there will be a Workshop prior to the show, starting at 2pm for children from 7-12 years old

Viking weapons 'n' warfare!

Using an impressive array of reconstructed clothing, armour, weapons and props, including a few genuine Viking artifacts that are over a thousand years old, learn how the Vikings fought and what weapons they used in battle! This exciting one hour workshop culminates in children actively taking part in a Viking shield wall, using a fabulous array of realistic looking foam-latex weapons, shields and helmets to get a ‘hands-on’ experience of what it felt to be in Viking battle formation. Take part then sit back and enjoy the exciting new Angel Heart and Rattlebox show ‘Freya – A Viking Saga’.
Workshop spaces limited. Please enquire when booking. Cost £3 per child.
