BUST: A new play by Naomi Lowde @ The Red Hedgehog
Sep 10 @ 6:30 pm – 6:30 pm

BUST is based in London, and focuses on a group of thirty-somethings who are growing up. Faced with real life challenges and topics (e.g. breast cancer, miscarriage, accidents, gay partnership…) BUST explores the measures people take to fulfill their sense of purpose in the world. Essentially, it’s commentary on commitment, sacrifice and family.

 After Naomi Lowde’s well-received musical debut, “Redundancy the Musical” (www.redundancythemusical.com) at the Hen and Chickens Theatre in February last year (www.offwestend.com/index.php/plays/view/7201), she worked on several new pieces and productions in Hong Kong. Now Lowde has returned to London to debut BUST.

*10% of ticket sales will be donated to The Carers Trust.

**The Red Hedgehog operates a Green Transport Scheme. Those traveling to the venue by environmentally friendly methods will recieve a £1 voucher to be used at the bar or against a future ticket purchase.

Meta – Gandini Juggling @ Jacksons Lane
Nov 21 @ 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm
The vertigo of structure, the infectiousness of the shocking. 
A show about making shows. A reflection on entertainment. In the 90’s the Gandinis made a series of experimental pieces with Choreographer Gill Clarkethat were performed at Jacksons Lane. For this commission they revisit those pieces with a show which is about itself, an elliptical reflexion on their journey through entertainment.
There will be complex juggling, text, ballet dancing, hammers, nudity, tables and a comedy sketch.
Gandini are bursting with concepts and commentary about form, style and substance. They are excited about this dissection of things, about dwelling deeper into the anatomy of a show.
Back at Jacksons Lane as part of the 40th birthday celebrations, this piece seesGandini simultaneously looking back to the past, forward to the future, and trying to explain how to get from one to the other.
With 6 jugglers and 3 dancers.
There will be a Gala performance of meta on Wed 25 Nov. CLICK HERE for more information.

By Gail Louw
Directed by John Burrows
Performed by Andrew Wheaton

27th – 29th April  
Friday & Saturday 7.30pm

The story of a 20th century dad, his son & Brahms

Anton does his best but it’s a heartless and tough world out there – what with the Nazis, internment, a loveless marriage and a son he can’t communicate with. Being Brahms is a much better option, a world of soothing lullabies and the lovely Clara Schulmann to drool over, a world where everything seems so much clearer.

Multi award winning playwright Gail Louw blends a universal, heartfelt story about fathers and sons with the wondrous music of Johannes Brahms in this new one-man drama.

Gail Louw has her plays performed throughout the world: Duwayne, (Best New Play at Brighton Fringe), Blonde Poison (Argus Angel, Best of the Fest – San Francisco, South Africa and Sydney Opera House). Miss Dietrich Regrets (Naledi Award). And this is my friend Mr Laurel, with Jeffrey Holland (Edinburgh and tour), Two Sisters (Los Angeles and UK). Most recently is sell out UK tour of The Mitfords.  Oberon have published two collections of Gail’s plays.

Once described by The Stage as an actor of all parts, Andrew Wheaton has played everything from a dead body in a comedy thriller to multi-role ensemble work, and major roles in productions as diverse as Shakespeare and musicals in the West End and New York.

Tickets
£16 (£14 concession)
