Watercolour Group Exhibition @ Lauderdale House
Nov 5 @ 8:44 pm – 9:44 pm

The Highgate Watercolour Group look forward to welcoming their visitors, both local and from further afield, and take great pleasure in presenting their work in this beautiful historic house.

This year they will have the cream of their output on display, beautifully framed and reasonably priced.  Nearly all members are represented, so there is great variety and hopefully something for everyone.

In August, the Highgate Watercolour Group painting activities moved out of 10A South Grove, where they usually work, enabling them to exploit the city more widely. Look out for paintings of Omved Gardens in Highgate, views of Hampstead and the Heath, as well as other north London hotspots. And of course one of their favourite venues is Waterlow Park and Lauderdale House itself.

Everyone is welcome to the private view on Wednesday 11th October from 7.30 pm to 9.30pm – come meet the artists and see the work first!

The gallery is generally open:

  • Monday – Tuesday : 12pm to 4pm
  • Wednesday : 11am to 3pm
  • Thursday – Sunday : 12pm to 4pm

Please note that the gallery hours may change or the gallery may close at short notice due to private events. To avoid disappointment, please check our most up-to-date opening hours by clicking here or calling us on 020 8348 8716 the day before your visit.

Bess – The Other Houdini @ Upstairs at the Gatehouse
Nov 7 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

Escape Artists Theatre Company presents
Bess – The Other Houdini

The startling true story of Harry Houdini’s beloved wife and her breakdown in the aftermath of his death. The world knew Bess as Houdini’s loyal partner, both on and off stage, his inspiration, his guiding star – Or was their perfect marriage their greatest illusion?

It is 1929, the height of the Spiritualist frenzy. Houdini, the world’s first Superstar, has been dead two years and all attempts to contact him have failed. Yet surely if anyone can break through from the Other Side, it’s Harry.

Meanwhile his widow, Bess, his beloved partner both offstage and on, is alone and lost, her fragile health already stretched thin by years of living in daily fear as her husband was buried alive, flung manacled into icy rivers and dangled upside down ten stories high in a strait jacket. Now she is deeply in debt, struggling with addiction and desperate to stay in the public eye.

When she is accused of rigging a séance, and with the press hounding her as a fraud, she is forced to flee to a private sanitarium. Does she truly believe her husband has reached out to her from the Beyond? Or, haunted as she is by her own memories and hallucinations, can she even tell the difference? Her doctor is up-to-date with the latest treatments but neither he, nor her celebrity-obsessed nurse, nor her hovering family, can make the slightest dent in her despair.

As she battles with her own demons, she stumbles upon devastating clues about Houdini’s secret life, leading to the revelation that their perfect marriage may have been the greatest illusion of them all. But if everything she built her life upon was only for show, how will she be able to survive Life after Harry?

Laughter is the Best Medicine @ Upstairs at the Gatehouse
Nov 13 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

Research suggests that laughter can offer stress relief, soothe tension, improve mood and even relieve pain. This charity comedy event will put that to the test, and endeavour to show case that Laughter is the Best Medicine.

With the genius comedy stylings of Ali Woods (“In a world of wannabes, Woods is the real deal” – The Evening Standard), Elf Lyons (“Praise her genius” – The Telegraph), Raj Poojara (BBC New Comedy Awards Regional Finalist, 2Northdown Comedian of the Year Finalist) and Markus Birdman (Britain’s Got Talent 2023 Semi-Finalist), the event promises to be a night of laughter and good deeds.

The evening event will be raising money for InspireUK – The Charity, a small charity which offers low-cost and accessible therapy for those who need it, with a particular focus on marginalised communities.

Hauntings @ Upstairs at the Gatehouse
Nov 14 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

Hauntings is a spellbinding evening of three tales of the supernatural from two of the world’s greatest writers of ghost stories, E.F. Benson and M.R. James.

From the acknowledged master of the ghost story genre, M.R. JAMES, comes Oh, Whistle and I’ll Come to You, My Lad – in which a medieval spirit strikes terrorizes an arrogant professor.

With masterful storytelling from the award-winning actor Gerard Logan, Hauntings will transport you to a world of invisible, but terrifyingly present, spirits.

★★★★★
“Logan is astounding….He takes a strong script and flies it to the stars”

Havisham

Who was the woman behind Dickens’ most monstrous female creation? What drove the hopeful young Miss Havisham to her cruel and fractured fate? Experience her heartbreak, as we delve into her childhood trauma and follow her on an intricate journey to a world where she finds herself ‘the leading lady in a drama she can’t comprehend.’ The gaslighting is subtle, the coercive control slick. Can Miss Havisham escape her twisted karma? Or is she destined to impose the devastation of her trauma on a new victim?

Starring Heather Alexander (ROOM, Upstairs at the Gatehouse, 2023) an award-winning actress, writer, and producer with a prodigious list of stage, television, and film credits.

Directed by Dominique Gerrard. Recent credits include award winning production Quintessence (Emily Carding), SOE & A Necessary Woman (both for Clair Obscur Theatre) and Heather’s previous work Room (Emul8).

Reviews for previous work:

Dec 14 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

Chromolume Productions presents

You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown

14th December 2023 – 14th January 2024

Based on The Comic Strip “Peanuts” by Charles M. Schulz
Book, Music and Lyrics by Clark Gesner
Additional Dialogue by Michael Mayer
Additional Music and Lyrics by Andrew Lippa

Charlie Brown is five years old and trying his best. But things just don’t seem to go his way: his kite won’t fly, the Little Red-Haired Girl won’t look at him, and he’s not even sure his dog Snoopy likes him all that much!

With a charming book and heartwarming, hilarious songs brought to life by our wonderful five-piece band, Clark Gesner’s 1967 musical based on Charles M. Schulz’s beloved Peanuts characters urges us to find happiness in the everyday and serves as a reminder that we’re all just grown-up children trying our best to figure it out.

Directed and choreographed by Amanda Noar

Musical Direction by Harry Style

YOU’RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Tams-Witmark LLC.
