Trip to Anglesey Abbey winter garden, Sat 16th Feb. @ Coach leaves from Lauderdale House
Feb 16 @ 9:30 am – 5:00 pm

ANGLESEY ABBEY near Cambridge offers one of the finest winter gardens in the South, displaying a remarkable riot of colour at the dullest time of the year. Run by the National Trust, and included in the Royal Horticultural Society handbook, it’s a sight not to be missed.

The Friends of Waterlow Park is organising a coach trip to Anglesey Abbey on Saturday 16th February, leaving from Lauderdale House at 9.30am and back in London by 5pm. We’d be delighted if you joined us!

Prices range from £13.00 – £23.50 (depending on whether you’re a member of the FOWP and/or National Trust or RHS).  Children are a flat £13 each. Any profit made will go towards the Waterlow Park improvement funds.

For more information email Patricia Walby on patricia@waterlowpark.org.uk or call her on 0207 209 1659 or go to the website:  www.waterlowpark.org.uk

Keats, Love and Myth Understandings – John Hegley @ Jacksons Lane
Oct 30 @ 8:00 pm – 9:00 pm

A selection of verses on the above topics, devised as an adult show, but tolerable to some 10 year olds. Verses concerning Keats’s relationships with vegetables and surgery. A long look at love, both on, and off the buses and musings on the old chestnut of Orpheus’s disruptive turn around. Deep and daft. Come and Sing.

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.

Ssshhh! Circus Cabaret curated by Lucy Loves Circus @ Jacksons Lane
Jul 16 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Curated by Lucy Loves Circus

Doffing our cap to the traditions of vaudeville and the origins of circus and cabaret, acclaimed circus blogger Lu Cyrcus curates this very special night, led by Cirque du Soleil’s lead clown Sean Kempton. New and old combine in this evening of contemporary varieté, featuring everything from pole dancing to aerial rope and trapeze, where burlesque meets juggling kettle bells, with a dash of musical saw thrown in for good measure.

A night to tease, whisper and gasp – Ssshhh!
