Comedy Trio Have Arrived!

Three's Company opened their latest offering to the Buxton Fringe last night.

Comedy Trio struggled through their latest episode of Adventure Time with the help of a brilliant Buxton Audience, and an excellent impromptu performance from our latest 'guest star' Neyire Ashworth.

Just to let you know Neyire is performing in her new one-woman show in Buxton and Edinburgh. Don't miss the remarkable Stolen Voices. 'A truly commendable performance!' BUXTON FRINGE 2009

Adventure Time has a few more shows in Buxton, so don't miss out. Comedy Trio return to The Paupers Pit on 13th, 14th, 23rd and 26th.

The Official Buxton Fringe Review said:

'Three's Company were on top form!'

'The hard worked script was delivered at Mach 1 speed and left me breathless but smiling. It was full of innuendo, satire and word play... don't worry if you miss a gem or two, relax and you'll hear the next one.'

Since Neyire's wonderful performance we have been honoured to have had Bryony Harding perform with us on 13th and Celia Dunk (or Celia What as she told Comedy Trio), a real treat on 14th.
Who knows who it'll be Thursday and Sun!

On Thursday we had an old teacher of ours filling Teresa's spot. Jackie Cruise was wonderful as a (french) Miss Claret. And on Sunday, Rob Gibbs was first to volunteer, so Miss Claret and Miss Dumpling had unnervingly deep voices.
Congratulations to both!

The Lost Work of Tom Crawshaw

This Tuesday (14th April) at 7:30 a rehearsed reading of Tom Crawshaw's play Still Life will be performed at the Jackson Lane Theatre.Well to be honest, sections of the play will be read, so don't worry, you won't find out the full story until it is launched as a fully fledged production.

If you've been missing some of Tom's more conventional writing (and by this I mean, not directly linked to Three's Company's inter-reactive work... Tom's writing is never exactly conventional) then this is the perfect night for you.

Tom began work on Still Life in 2007 just after finishing his first draft of Play On Words, and whilst writing Auditorium and Adventure Time he has been re-shaping and honing this brilliant new play. Tuesday sees Still Life's first public outing of any kind. So come along to the Jackson Lane Theatre and see Tom's most recent play and two other new works in Artists Anonymous Theatre Network's Page to Stage. And it's only £3.50!

Michael Gets Freudian

(Our very own) Michael Grady-Hall will be appearing in the staged reading of Nicky Silvers dark comedy, as part of StoneCrabs' New Directors Play Readings 2008. It's this Thursday (the 11th December) at the Albany Theatre in Deptford - sorry about the short notice.

He will be playing Bishop (the lead) in a piece called Fat Men In Skirts (or How I Ate My Father And Slept With My Mother) by Nicky Silver, dir. Victor Essess. Anyone wondering how that state of affairs is reached (such as myself) should get along - I believe it is pretty cheap but Michael doesn't know for sure. We'll see you there!

and here's what the Buxton Fringe said about that show that didn't exist:

"Thought-provoking and highly entertaining, we were entertained and quizzed in equal measure by... Tom Crawshaw's, Dreams Come True.
...
Local award winning playwright, Tom's piece fused the boundary between dreams and reality, leaving the onlooker wondering if a dream could last forever."

A fine performance by Michael and Mariam - and an ideas which may well be enlarged on at some later date...
