The Giant Killers @ Upstairs at the Gatehouse
Oct 30 @ 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm

The inspiring true story of football’s greatest ever underdogs.
Set in the early years of Association Football, The Giant Killers follows a ragtag bunch of Lancashire mill workers who defied all odds to become the first working-class team in the country to play in the FA Cup. Left tired and despondent from the cotton famine of the 1870s, this small group of northern lads found pride and hope in a game that up until then had been reserved for the upper classes. Darwen FC rose up against prevailing social prejudice and the might of the Football Association, to earn a place in history as the first real ‘giant-killers’ in English football, and take on the “poshest team of all” – The Old Etonians. Scoring a massive moral victory for all working class people, the team proved that passion and spirit is worth more than wealth and privilege. When the Battlefield is the football pitch, everyone is equal. The Giant Killers is an absorbing, heartfelt story of a town that came together to achieve the impossible and win the respect of the nation. A rip-roaring evening out, whether you know the off-side rule or not!
Directed by Andrew Loudon (director of the West End productions of Carries War, Little Women and Cool Hand Luke).

John Gabriel Borkman @ Upstairs at the Gatehouse
Nov 6 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

In this, his penultimate play, Ibsen explores the effects of hubris on his eponymous character and those around him. Written in the naturalistic style, which was in great favour amongst playwrights of the time, it explores the rise and fall of a man of humble origins – John Gabriel is the son of a miner – who rose to prominence as a banker and financial advisor to the wealthy citizens of his home town and then through greed and ambition is disgraced and brings shame on himself and
his family. In this, as in many of his plays, although Borkman is the central character around whom the action revolves, it is the females in his life who have true strength. It is they who recognise reality and control the final outcome of the story. Though apparently bleak the play offers hope for the future and acknowledges that life goes on, carried forward by the next generation.

HGO Presents – “The Secret Marriage” @ Jacksons Lane Theatre
Nov 16 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

HGO presents a new production of Domenico Cimarosa’s masterpiece of opera buffa, ‘THE SECRET MARRIAGE’. ‘What a treat to bring Cimarosa’s sparkling, effervescent opera to life’, says director SINÉAD O’NEILL. ‘It was an immediate hit in 1792, and it’s easy to see why. Fast-paced, with direct, well-drawn characters, tangled love affairs, confusion and misunderstandings, it is light-hearted, touching, and charming.’

Kid’s Painting and Drawing Autumn Term Classes @ Jackson's Lane
Nov 21 @ 4:30 pm – 5:30 pm
Kid's Painting and Drawing Autumn Term Classes @ Jackson's Lane

 

We are excited to announce that Doodle Arts will start a new Drawing and Painting class for the Autumn term. The classes will take place on Wednesdays 4:30-5:30 pm at Jacksons’ Lane.

Each session is especially design to help children develop their artistic skills and knowledge by using a combination of mediums and techniques such as painting (acrylics, canvases, watercolours) drawing (charcoal and graphite) printmaking (relief print and embossing) and sculpture. Drawing inspiration from contemporary artists as well as the great masters and the History of Art we will be exploring fundamental notions in fine art like composition, prospective, tone and texture while at the same time encouraging creative thinking and imagination and most importantly having fun!

The sessions are suitable for ages 5-11. All materials are provided.

Participation fee: £145 for 12 sessions / Family offer: £250 for 2 siblings

Limited availability. To reserve a space please contact Anastasia Mina on 07510898430 or email us at doodlecreativeactivities@gmail.com 

HGO Presents – “The Secret Marriage” @ Jacksons Lane Theatre
Nov 21 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

HGO presents a new production of Domenico Cimarosa’s masterpiece of opera buffa, ‘THE SECRET MARRIAGE’. ‘What a treat to bring Cimarosa’s sparkling, effervescent opera to life’, says director SINÉAD O’NEILL. ‘It was an immediate hit in 1792, and it’s easy to see why. Fast-paced, with direct, well-drawn characters, tangled love affairs, confusion and misunderstandings, it is light-hearted, touching, and charming.’

Directed by Sinéad O’Neill

Music Director Chris Hopkins

With the HGO Orchestra.
