More quality jokes per hour than many comics have in their entire career


The thing about Gary is: he likes to write and perform jokes. An awful lot of them. Gary's last tour was extended four times and took in over 240 dates - each showcasing why he’s seen as the premier gagsmith of his generation. He loves each and every gag - you can’t help but be carried away by his infectious charm. He’s like a cheeky schoolboy who can barely hide his glee with every punch line.

Gary Delaney: There's Something About Gary

Much Ado About Nothing

Prince Henry's drama students stage one of Shakespeare's best comedies

Prince Don Pedro, his resentful brother Don John and the noblemen Claudio & Benedick return from war. Claudio has hopes for nobleman's daughter Hero, while the avowedly single Benedick spars wittily with Beatrice. As the homecoming masked ball begins, Don Pedro aims to assist Claudio to win Hero's hand - but Don John plans to make trouble. Confusion and comedy ensue - until, in the end, it all turns out to be ‘much ado about nothing’.

The musical play of hope, romance - and brass bands

Bretforton Silver Band joins EODS in a spectacular staging of this unique theatrical experience. It's 1992, Grimley Colliery faces closure. With miners torn between redundancy packages and picket lines, band-leader Danny’s hopes of winning the national brass band competition seem a distant dream. But flugelhorn-playing Gloria brings hope, romance and controversy to this brass band on the brink of collapse. Adapted by Paul Allen for the stage, based on the screenplay by Mark Herman from the film. Produced by special arrangement with Samuel French Inc. & in association with Bretforton Silver Band.

Traditional & new songs in arresting close vocal harmony

Jimmy Aldridge & Sid Goldsmith play traditional and original folksong of the British Isles, heavily influenced by the songs and singers of their native East Anglia.

Exuberant music from a 45-piece Big Band with Strings!
