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.

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.

Hidden Heroes on your doorstep

In Highgate you are never far from a WW1 memorial giving the names of the brave men who gave their lives in this devastating conflict.

Join us for our special exhibition to honor our local heroes supported by the Heritage Lottery.

Over the past months local people aged 8 to 80’s have become heritage detectives led by practitioner D R Corgan. After taking part in research workshops, talks and trips they have created their own WWI exhibition.

This unique, interactive exhibition will be a fitting tribute to our Highgate Heroes. It will give an insight into their WWI experiences from the optimistic call up to the horrors of battle.

Suitable for Ages 6+
