Two brothers, playing around in their messy bedroom, hear Mum approaching. The excitable rascals will have to hustle to get their chores done so they can have some fun… A generous serving of riotous comedy, chaotic acrobatics, juggling, unicycling, huge flips and many more incredible amazing skills feature in this action-packed attempt to tidy a room. Inspired by slapstick legends Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin, the side-splitting duo of Chores will leave audiences on the edge of their seats, giggling until the chores are done.

Where are you from? How did you get here? Do you like spicy food? Sometimes you laugh it off. Sometimes you keep quiet. Sometimes you decide to speak up. Sometimes you shout. The Brownie Club is a show about race, identity and fitting in, exploring the experiences of women of colour as they choose when, where and how to respond to racism. Combining striking aerial circus with physical theatre and spoken word, it takes a joyful, honest and candid look at the assumptions made about people of colour, and asks: What happens when we begin with a different set of questions?

Andrew Cleyndert with Nadim Teimoori (saxophones), Mark Edwards (piano) and Winston Clifford (drums)
It is hard to overestimate the sheer amount of experience of Andrew Cleyndert. An incredibly youthful spirit, he was Ronnie Scott’s last bass player and has performed at the highest level over three decades.
Cleyndert has performed at Lauderdale House many times, not least with the iconic Stan Tracey and as recently as last December with the wonderful Tony Kofi Cannonball Adderley project. So we welcome his decision to step up and lead a band himself!
Brighton’s Mark Edwards is a phenomenal pianist, who worked regularly with the late – and truly great – Bobby Wellins. Winston Clifford is an outstanding drummer (and Director Katherine Ives’s favourite). When Winston is on the band, the swing is going to be right in the pocket! Which leaves one new face to be savoured; tenor Nadim Teimoori. When our programmer Brian Blain heard him perform three years ago, he was blown away by his talent. He now lives in Doncaster and is coming down specially for this gig.
Jazz in the House continues with Andrew Cleyndert featuring Mark Edwards, Winston Clifford and Nadim Teimoori. Doors open at 8pm and the concert begins at 8.30pm. The bar will be open from late afternoon for drinks and snacks.

The highly anticipated UK and European Premiere of Off-Broadway smash-hit comedy musical The Marvelous Wonderettes is being produced at Upstairs at the Gatehouse, Highgate Village, from 9 April until 12 May 2019, with Press Night on 11 April 2019 at 7.30pm.
Written and created by Roger Bean, the multi-award winning show opened in New York at the Waterside Theatre in 2008 to outstanding critical acclaim. It takes a cotton-candied musical trip down memory lane to the 1958 Springfield High School Prom, where we meet The Wonderettes: four girls with hopes and dreams as big as their crinoline skirts. The show follows their lives and loves from Prom Night to their 10-year Reunion.
