SUMMARY:Big Comedy Little Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Top acts from the comedy circuit\, TV and radio will be appearing on Sunday 28 April\, at the opening night of Canalside Comedy\, at the town’s 115-seat Little Theatre. \nThis is thanks to a chance meeting between two theatre members\, Stacey Buss\, a former comedy promoter\, and Edmund Tirbutt\, an ex-stand-up comic\, during the latest Alan Ayckbourn production at the theatre. \nEdmund says: ‘Both of us had already thought Hebden Bridge Little Theatre would be a fantastic venue for stand-up and\, having just learned of the closure of the town’s comedy club\, launching a series of comedy nights seemed a no-brainer.’ \nStacey and Edmund have quickly turned their idea into reality\, and tickets are now on sale for the first of the comedy nights\, which will be on Sunday 28 April\, at 8pm. It is a truly star-studded line up with TV comedian Jon Richardson as MC\, and prolific radio performer and comic writer Nick Doody headlining. Others on the bill include Noel James\, the Welshman who did so brilliantly on last year’s Britain’s Got Talent\, Lucy Beaumont\, the multi-award winning stand-up and leading radio sitcom actress and writer\, and Kevin Precious – who has become renowned for his comic observations about his previous career as a teacher. This will be a cracking night\, not to be missed! \nTickets\, cost £12\, and can be booked online at www.canalsidecomedy.co.uk \n\n

SUMMARY:Witness for the Prosecution
DESCRIPTION:By Agatha Christie\, directed by Steve Hirst \nLeonard Vole is in the dock for the murder of Emily French\, a wealthy older woman. Unaware that he was a married man\, Miss French had made him her principal heir\, and apparently harboured hopes of marriage. Everything seems to point to Leonard’s guilt\, and his situation becomes even more desperate when Leonard’s wife\, Romaine\, agrees to testify – not in his defence\, but as a witness for the prosecution. \nThe play is adapted from a Christie short story\, and was one of her personal favourites. \n

SUMMARY:Big Comedy Little Theatre
DESCRIPTION:A host of world-famous comics like Michael McIntyre\, John Bishop\, Jimmy Carr and Lee Evans will be featuring at Canalside Comedy at Hebden Bridge Little Theatre on 8 September. Well that’s possibly a slight misrepresentation! But we do have Danny Posthill\, one of the UK’s leading impressionists\, who has become renowned for his hilarious take-offs of such individuals – and many others besides. \nDanny rose to fame in the 2015 series of Britain’s Got Talent\, when he reached the final and produced a stunning performance that fully justified his tag as one of the favourites on the night. What really distinguishes him from other impressionists is the quality of the gags that he incorporates with his mimicry. It has often been said that his set would make a highly impressive stand-up routine in its own right even if it didn’t contain impersonations. \nDanny\, who is based in Hartlepool\, will be joined by two top international acts: Canadian sensation David Tsonos\, who is now UK based\, and Mick Neven\, one of Australia’s busiest comedians\, who we have managed to sign up during his latest visit to these shores. \nLeicester based Rob Coleman will also be showing us why UK audiences have become so excited by his one-liners and quirky observations\, and the evening will hosted by Hull based Nicola Wilkinson\, one of the circuit’s most relaxed\, charming and sought-after MCs. \nTickets for what is sure to be a really cracking evening are already on sale. Sign up to the Canalside Comedy Newsletter for a 10% discount code and find full details of the acts here. \nTickets cost £14\, and can be booked online at https://www.canalsidecomedy.co.uk/\n\n

SUMMARY:Big Comedy Little Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Canalside Comedy has lined up another cracking night of stand-up comedy\, for Sunday 8 December.\nMC Matt Fong will be joined by Sam Gore\, Becky Heaviside\, Tom Little and Steve Day. \nMatt’s debut solo show at the 2019 Edinburgh Fringe Festival\, was picked as one of the best shows in Edinburgh\, so we’re excited to see him in Hebden Bridge. \nNewer Act\, Becky Heaviside will perform alongside prolific writer and performer\, Sam Gore. Sam cemented his position as one of the best new comedians of his generation with five New Act of the Year awards\, including the national Laughing Horse competition. With his rapid-fire delivery and unique use of language and imagery\, nobody writes a simile quite like Gore. \n‘Inventive\, unexpected and often very silly…[Tom Little]…surely can’t remain a hidden treasure for long.’ – Chortle. This is a rare chance to see him in such an intimate setting.  \nClosing the show\, we’ve got Steve Day\, Britain’s only deaf comedian – well if there are any others\, he hasn’t heard. A familiar voice on Radio 4\, for the past fourteen years Steve has been performing to huge laughter around the country (well they tell him the laughter was huge to humour him\, he doesn’t know either way). \nDoors open at 7pm for this show at Hebden Bridge Little Theatre\, which starts at 8pm. Tickets cost £14. Little Theatre members receive a 10% discount with this code: 2198. \nFurther details available at www.canalsidecomedy.co.uk \n

SUMMARY:Feeding the Darkness
DESCRIPTION:‘Art Thou in Darkness? Mind it not for if thou dost\, it will fill thee more…’ \nJames Naylor (17th century Quaker) \nThis 65 minute performance is a result of extensive research into the dark world of state-sanctioned torture and its stark impact on victims\, perpetrators\, families and those who collude in the ‘process’. \nImmersive in style\, Feeding the Darkness frames verbatim monologues\, and dramatic monologues based on true stories\, duologues\, poetry and testimonies which challenge our ignorance and avoidance of this sensitive and disturbing subject. \nIt features such wide-ranging material as the experiences of the mother of Private Lynddie England (court-marshalled for her role in the abuse of Abu Ghraib detainees)\, that of a Kurdish asylum seeker at an appeal tribunal\, and the role of trained medical professionals in state sanctioned torture\, amongst many others. \nFeeding the Darkness both iterates the Quaker position on torture and encourages us to examine how the UN Convention Against Torture (1965) Article 1 is clearly being abused by UK and world-wide governments. \nFeeding the Darkness is on at the Little Theatre\, for one night only\, Friday 24 January 2020\, starting at 7.45pm (doors open 7pm). Tickets are £10\, and are available from the Bookcase\, Market Street\, Hebden Bridge\, and from The Little Bird Café\, 53 Halifax Road\, Todmorden. \nThis production has been commissioned by Q-CAT (Quaker Concern for the Abolition of Torture) and is raising money for the Survivors of Torture Activity Fund.\nTo book a performance or for further information please contact: Journeymen Theatre- www.journeymentheatre.com lynnmorris32@yahoo.co.uk mob: 07791210687

SUMMARY:Big Comedy Little Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Canalside Comedy is gearing up for its next evening of comedy\, on Sunday\, 8 March. Top circuit names Paul Tonkinson and Scott Bennett are joined by newer acts\, Liam Pickford and Celya Ab and your host for the evening will be the talented Bobby Murdoch. \nYorkshire man\, Paul Tonkinson has long upheld his esteemed reputation as one of the finest stand-ups the UK has to offer.

SUMMARY:When We Are Married
DESCRIPTION:By J.B. Priestley\, directed by Ray Riches \nClecklewyke\, a town in the West Riding\, 1908. The Helliwells\, the Parkers and the Soppitts are highly respected pillars of their community…but not for much longer. Married on the same day in the same chapel\, 25 years earlier\, they gather to celebrate their Silver Wedding anniversaries\, only to discover that the vicar wasn’t licensed. They were never married\, and have been living in sin for the last 25 years! \nHorrified social embarrassment turns to the realisation that they’re free from the shackles of long\, tedious marriages. Home truths are dealt\, bullies get their come-uppance\, and the hen-pecked are hilariously and most satisfyingly liberated. \n  \nOriginally included in our abandoned 2020 Season\, When We Are Married marks the return to a regular programme\, at Hebden Bridge Little Theatre. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n
