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

Mark Thomas: Red Shed (work in progress) @ Jacksons Lane
Jun 28 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm
Mark Thomas: Red Shed (work in progress) @ Jacksons Lane

Red Shed is the third part in a trilogy that started with the multi award winning shows Bravo Figaro and Cuckooed.

Mark returns to the place where he first started to perform in public, a red wooden shed in Wakefield, the Labour Club, to celebrate the club’s 50th birthday.

Interviewing old friends and comrades Mark pieces together the club’s history and works with the club to campaign with some of the poorest workers in the country for their rights.

It is the story of the battle for hope and the survival of a community in a small wooden shed.

It is part theatre, part stand up, part journalism, part activism and returns to Mark’s obsessions of community and struggle.

The show will involve the audience (in a nice way) to help recreate the shed and its inhabitants.

Jess Love: And the Little One Said @ Jacksons Lane
Jul 14 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Combining high-level circus skills with pathos, humour and beauty, Jess Love creates a vision that is at once delicately touching, visually enchanting and heart-warmingly playful. Dark clowning, dirty acrobatics and surreal sideshow feats go hand-in-hand with slapstick, roller-skating, hula hoops, skipping and hopscotch acrobatics – phew! With crafted storytelling and awe inspiring images on a bed of roses and broken glass, it’s so sweet you’ll want to squeal!

Join him for this live show where he hilariously reveals the truth behind recent News events both home and abroad. He’ll also be discussing his own meteoric rise to mediocrity…and one imagines he’ll be venting plenty of spleen in the process.*
