Barry Collings Entertainments presents
Chas & Dave
Chas Hodges and Dave Peacock have never gone out of fashion,
but the legendary Cockney duo are currently basking in the adulation
of a dedicated cult following of young and old after appearing
at last year’s Glastonbury Festival on three separate stages.
Now back at our Manor, they will be performing hits from their
Greatest Hits album and DVD Live At Shepherd’s Bush Empire, including
such Cockney classics as Rabbit, Ain’t No Pleasing You, Gertcha
and, Sideboard Song. Guaranteed to have you on your feet, you’d
be Snooker Loopy to miss it.
Jim Davidson has established himself as one of Britain’s most
popular stand-up comedians since emerging from television’s New
Faces more than 30 years ago. For his brand new show Jim is as
hilarious, X-rated and as controversial as ever and is sure to
inflame the PC brigade as he tackles all manner of forbidden
subjects.
Not suitable for anyone aged under 18
£ 19.50
“Britain's greatest living stand-up comedian ... takes the audience
out of its comfort zone ... with his brilliant comedy” The Independent
Brendan
has, quite simply, become an Irish institution and is as synonymous
with the Emerald Isle as Guiness and the Blarney Stone. Brendan
started out as a carrot farmer before making his name in the
entertainment world and during the past 30 years has played some
of the world’s most prestigious venues and chalked up 15 number
ones in his native country. Brendan will be looking to the audience
to sing-a-long to such popular classics as O'Brien Has No Place
To Go, Catch Me If You Can and Do You Want Your Old Lobby Washed
Down. Shine a light for Brendan for this experience you will
never forget.
£14 (£12 conc)
"Brendan's unique singing voice and showmanship clearly
sets him up as a very special entertainer” http://www.wellbankhall.co.uk
Art
By Yasmina Reza, translated by Christopher Hampton
Serge has bought a modern painting for a huge sum of money.
His best friends, Marc and Yvan are divided in their opinion.
Marc hates it and thinks it’s a complete waste of money. Yvan
attempts, unsuccessfully, to placate both sides. If your friendship
is based on tacit mutual agreement what happens when one person
does something completely different and unexpected? The question
is: Are you who you think you are or are you who your friends
think you are? Art sees the return to Harlow Playhouse of the
talented Global Productions, whose previous productions include
Pygmalion, Lord Arthur Savile’s Crime (both of which were enormous
hits at the world famous Minack Theatre in Cornwall), An Inspector
Calls, and the award-winning Educating Rita.
£10 (£8 conc)
“The twists and turns were truly gripping and each member
of the eight-strong cast brought their own touch of magic to
the proceedings” Harlow Star (Reviewing 2007’s Murder In Company)
Back by popular demand, We’ll Meet Again evokes the camaraderie
and fighting spirit of those caught up in the Blitz during
World War Two. Audience participation is warmly encouraged
in this bright and breezy wartime revue, featuring songs by
the likes of Vera Lynn, Donald Peers, Gracie Fields, George
Formby and Bing Crosby, as well as routines from such famous
comedians as Robb Wilton, Max Miller, and Tessie O’Shea. An
afternoon of Hits from the Blitz, this nostalgic nod to yesteryear
will no doubt stir a few memories of how music and laughter
kept Britain smiling through her darkest days.
£11 (£9 conc)
10% off for groups of 10 or more
“A wonderful presentation of songs, music and comedy from
the wartime years” Comment Online
