After a sell out run of The Jewish Legacy celebrating the Jewish contribution to musical theatre, Aria Entertainment returns with a new production; The Jewish Legends.
A celebration of some of the greatest Jewish performers in entertainment history!

Why did American Jews find such success in the world of entertainment? Because they arrived in America in the late nineteenth century with nothing but a gift to peddle. And what better to peddle than a song, a dance or a comic routine.

This show uniquely explores a century of song, dance and comedy with a nod to some legendary performers such as Barbra Streisand, Al Jolson, Bette Midler, Sophie Tucker, Fanny Brice, Zero Mostel and Groucho Marx. Song writers include Burt Bacharach, Carole King, and Leonard Cohen.

Their songs, their lives, their stories.

Featuring a cast of four fantastic singers; Steve Serlin, Martin Neely, Joanna Lee, Molly Marie Walsh and a live band.

Mar 5 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

The third Highgate Debate to be held at Highgate Literary & Scientific Institution tackles the issue

of current drugs policy. Our two prominent speakers take opposing positions, roughly equating

to a ‘tender’ or a ‘tough’ approach to users. Molly Meacher will argue for a more liberal drugs

policy, while Will Blair will oppose any change. As with previous debates, they will be supported

by seconders from local 6th forms. Members of the audience will then be invited to make

contributions from the floor. The Debates will be free and open to the general public, as well as

HLSI members.

Liz Miranda, Natural Forms @ HLSI
Mar 6 @ 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm

Liz has created a collection of paintings of plants in close detail: uprooted, revealing their complex structures and individual history, and full of visual delight. Although not intended as a scientific study, the paintings bring us to a new relationship with nature.

Liz Miranda’s life as an artist has an international flavour. She was born in Iran, studied in England and France, worked, taught and exhibited, mainly in Brazil, and then returned to England to paint, etch, bring up a family and teach. She continues to teach, concentrating on painting from direct observation. In 2010 Liz exhibited at the Highgate Gallery and in this show her work is, as always, in oil on canvas or wood.

For the past few years Liz has been painting plants in close detail. She likes to work with the whole shape of each plant but also wants to focus on its component parts – roots, stalks, seed-heads, pods, the changes of colour, the texture and thickness of stem with the position on it of the leaves and nodes.

However realistic, her works are not illustrations. Liz wants them to be true but accuracy is not the goal: they are paintings. Painting is the second stage of freezing the potential development of these natural forms; though they were already denied growth when uprooted from the soil.

Her subjects range from modest London weeds to exotic plants, flowers, trees and grasses of the tropics. All are closely observed to reveal their individual integrity.

After a sell out run of The Jewish Legacy celebrating the Jewish contribution to musical theatre, Aria Entertainment returns with a new production; The Jewish Legends.
A celebration of some of the greatest Jewish performers in entertainment history!

Why did American Jews find such success in the world of entertainment? Because they arrived in America in the late nineteenth century with nothing but a gift to peddle. And what better to peddle than a song, a dance or a comic routine.

This show uniquely explores a century of song, dance and comedy with a nod to some legendary performers such as Barbra Streisand, Al Jolson, Bette Midler, Sophie Tucker, Fanny Brice, Zero Mostel and Groucho Marx. Song writers include Burt Bacharach, Carole King, and Leonard Cohen.

Their songs, their lives, their stories.

Featuring a cast of four fantastic singers; Steve Serlin, Martin Neely, Joanna Lee, Molly Marie Walsh and a live band.

Written by Chris Burgess
Directed by Stewart Nicholls
Arrangements by Andy Collyer
Produced by Katy Lipson

Liz has created a collection of paintings of plants in close detail: uprooted, revealing their complex structures and individual history, and full of visual delight. Although not intended as a scientific study, the paintings bring us to a new relationship with nature.

Liz Miranda’s life as an artist has an international flavour. She was born in Iran, studied in England and France, worked, taught and exhibited, mainly in Brazil, and then returned to England to paint, etch, bring up a family and teach. She continues to teach, concentrating on painting from direct observation. In 2010 Liz exhibited at the Highgate Gallery and in this show her work is, as always, in oil on canvas or wood.

For the past few years Liz has been painting plants in close detail. She likes to work with the whole shape of each plant but also wants to focus on its component parts – roots, stalks, seed-heads, pods, the changes of colour, the texture and thickness of stem with the position on it of the leaves and nodes.

However realistic, her works are not illustrations. Liz wants them to be true but accuracy is not the goal: they are paintings. Painting is the second stage of freezing the potential development of these natural forms; though they were already denied growth when uprooted from the soil.

Her subjects range from modest London weeds to exotic plants, flowers, trees and grasses of the tropics. All are closely observed to reveal their individual integrity.

The Secret World of Charles Dickens @ Upstairs at the Gatehouse
Mar 19 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

Thursday – Saturday 7.30pm
Sunday 22nd at 4pm

Charles Dickens neglected his children, disgraced his wife, kept a mistress half his age, frequented brothels, practised hypnosis on impressionable ladies and humiliated his friends! But none of these are surprising enough to feature in The Secret World of Charles Dickens: a show that reveals Charles Dickens to have been a clandestine conjurer and even asks whether he was a Spiritualist on the quiet.

Ian Keable, winner of The Magic Circle Comedy Award, performs the favourite magic tricks of Charles Dickens and divulges the spooky practices of Victorian psychics. Sub-titled ‘mirth, marvels and the mysterious’, The Secret World of Charles Dickens delivers on all of these: so much so that you don’t need to have read a word of Dickens to discover an intriguing and fascinating side to this great writer’s personality.

The Secret World of Charles Dickens premiered at The Charles Dickens Museum in London.
