SUMMARY:Daliso Chaponda: Feed This Black Man Again
DESCRIPTION:Daliso did his first show Feed This Black Man 20 years ago. The jokes were mediocre\, there was a rap about poverty in the middle (which was as offensive as you might imagine) and the big finale involved a sandwich on stage. \n20 years later\, Daliso has done the Royal Variety Performance\, written and performed four series of Citizen of Nowhere on BBC Radio 4\, been a Britain’s Got Talent finalist\, toured nationwide and abroad… all sorts of things the 22-year-old Chaponda would never have imagined possible. \nSo\, Feed This Black Man Again is a do-over\, as the now widely-loved comic revisits the themes of that ancient debut show with the considerably enhanced comic talents that two decades’ experience brings you. Along the way he’ll examine the huge differences between the way you think life will be at twenty\, and the reality. Probably no sandwich at the end this time. \n‘Gets laughs out of topics other comedians shun’ The Guardian \n‘Brilliantly bold\, thoroughly engaging and provocative’ Wee Review \nTickets: £17.50\nSuitable for age 14+ \nDuration: 1 hour 40 minutes including interval \nPlease contact the venue for any access requirements. \nTickets are also available through our Box Office on 01249 446699\, from the Neeld Box Office or at the Town Hall. \nTickets are non-refundable unless this event is cancelled or postponed.

SUMMARY:Simon Evans: Have We Met?
DESCRIPTION:After finally solving the mystery of his existence and true identity in Work of the Devil\, Simon finds that he has still not overcome the more daily challenges of remembering what he came upstairs for\, who these grown-ups are that live with him (and what they have done with his children?) and how can that footage be from 2009\, when he only bought those shoes a few months ago? \n“In Greek mythology\, the Muses were the daughters of Mnemosyne\, goddess of memory – though ironically\, there is no easy way to remember her name. But Memory was thus clearly regarded by the ancient Greeks as the mother of the arts\, wellspring of inspiration\, the compost in which imagination takes rooty. Our last defence against tyranny\, the consolation of the just and the seat of the soul. Without memory\, the illusion of self crumbles. Mine\, however\, is shot. So where does that leave me? \n‘A masterclass’ ***** (Scotsman). \n‘Outstanding stuff’ ****½ (Chortle.co.uk). \nPS What have I forgotten? \nTickets: £18.50 (includes ticket levy) \nStrictly 14+ likely to be swearing and adult content \nPlease note the reselling of tickets will result in cancellation of bookings \nPlease contact the venue for any access requirements. \nTickets are also available through our Box Office on 01249 446699\, from the Neeld Box Office or at the Town Hall. \nTickets are non-refundable unless this event is cancelled or postponed

SUMMARY:Love Stories
DESCRIPTION:A Valentine’s Day you’ll never forget 🎭❤️ \nKandu Arts is bringing a show to Chippenham that promises a whirlwind romance of stories\, chat and laughs about love. Love Stories\, by Mark Rutterford\, promises a Valentine’s Day event like no other and one you’ll never forget. As the audience eats Love Heart sweets\, they will hear tales of love affairs and heartache but like any romantic encounter\, Love Stories is not a passive experience. \nAudience engagement is a big part of the show. It’s the audience that decides who wins the World Cup of Love Songs\, what happens in one story and\, having heard Mark’s best and worst romantic moments\, they’ll be invited to share their own triumphs and disasters. Laughs and empathy are guaranteed. \nThis interactive theatre piece is that latest offering from Kandu Arts\, a Chippenham based company that has been using the arts and activities to explore a wide range of issues and nurture strong relationships within the community for 25 years. \nAn alien reports that he just ‘doesn’t get it\,’ but the 4-Star Review from last year’s Bath Fringe Festival says that you will feel the connection and that you might be beguiled into leaving your cynic at the door. \n“the connection…is what makes the night – during our short time together we become friends hanging out” \nBackground \nMark Rutterford is a writer-performer that has been performing stories across the South West for a decade. Love Stories is Mark’s first solo show – it made its debut at Bath Fringe Festival in May 2023 (4-Stars) and went on to Shaftesbury Fringe in July and Camden Fringe in August last year. The mix of performance\, props\, emotions and audience engagement are key features in the inclusive\, funny and entertaining show Mark wanted to create. He is delighted to be working with Kandu Arts and to be performing in Chippenham for the first time – he hopes to do more of both in future. \nKandu Arts for sustainable development is based in Chippenham\, Wiltshire\, and has worked since 1998 with communities\, often the most marginalized and hardest to reach up and down the country. They use music\, film\, visual arts & sport as a means to explore a wide range of issues. Combined with nurturing strong relationships\, this approach is highly effective in areas of engaging the disaffected\, increasing community cohesion and development.

SUMMARY:Living Spit: A Christmas Carol
DESCRIPTION:Hard hearted Ebenezer Scrooge hates the season of goodwill. Until a visit from three spirits one Christmas Eve makes him rethink his . . . blah blah blah. \nWe all know the story. We’ve all seen the film(s). But who’s the best Scrooge of all time? Albert Finney? Alistair Sim? Patrick Stewart? Well\, just hold your horses there! Because you’ve yet to witness Bristol actor Craig Edwards’ take on Dickens’ mean miserabilist. \nHe waits\, like a coiled spring\, ready to bring his unique brand of Midlands malcontentment to the role. And he’s brought Clevedon’s finest\, Stu Mcloughlin\, along for the ride to play (almost literally) all the other parts! \nHilarious\, tender\, idiotic and musically virtuosic by turns\, Living Spit’s two-man adaptation of A Christmas Carol promises a feast of festive foolery that’ll have you splitting your sprouts with laughter\, or your money back!* \n*only joking about the ‘money back’ bit \nSuitable for ages 10+

SUMMARY:Alfie Moore – A Face for Radio
DESCRIPTION:Somewhere in a parallel universe little Alfie’s natural comedic performance skills were recognised by his doting parents who encouraged and developed his blossoming talent. After several years as a stage school brat Alfie’s angelic face was launched on stage and screen and the rest is history. \nMeanwhile\, in this universe Alfie Moore was told to stop messing about in class before being ‘encouraged’ into the grinding\, grimy world of an apprenticeship in the Sheffield steelworks. When recession hit he traded steel for copper by joining Humberside Police. \nIn his 40s the two universes collided when Alfie made a bid for showbiz success – but unfortunately 30 years of shift-work and being punched in the face quite a lot\, had left him with ‘a face for radio’. A face not so much ‘lived in’ as inhabited by a settlement of squatters with little regard to property maintenance and repair. \nThis is the true story of ‘Fair Cop’ Alfie’s big plan to transition from the BBC radio waves to TV star. Could it be done? Or had Father Time decided that his time had passed? \n“…offbeat\, revealing and very funny” Daily Mail\n“…thoroughly engaging\, endlessly funny. His charisma shines through as bright and colourful as a twirling blue light. Mature Times

SUMMARY:Elizabeth 1 - Virgin on the Ridiculous
DESCRIPTION:‘A case study of sinewy simplicity and honed comedy craftsmanship’ – The Stage \n‘Side-splittingly funny’ – StageTalk Magazine \n1558. England. A country divided by religion and politics\, teetering on the brink of civil war. The hopes of the nation lie with one woman. \n2020. England. A country divided by those who enjoy plays featuring men in dresses and those who don’t. The hopes of the nation lie with two West-Country actors. \nYes\, that’s right. By popular demand (and the fact that they can’t be bothered to write a new show) Elizabeth’s back! The third of Living Spit’s (un)Holy Trinity of hilarious heritage historiographies is go as Howard and Stu attempt to tell the story of the greatest monarch that ever lived – Elizabeth: The Virgin Queen. \nWith more live original music\, silly songs\, smutty shenanigans\, perfunctory props\, and hysterically historical horseplay\, this promises to be (another) poorly researched lesson in Tudor history that you’ll never forget. \nFor ages 14+
