SPIKE THEATRE IN ASSOCIATION WITH UNITY THEATRE AND THE MET PRESENT THE GAMES

Cost:  £12 (£9 concessions)
            £6 restricted view
Time:  8pm in the Djanogly Theatre
Age:    Suitable for 12+ (please see warning)

Running time: 70mins without an interval

An ‘undiscovered’ Aristophanes comedy – the story of three Greek nobodies caught up in a celestial bet between Zeus, Hera and Hercules.

The unwitting heroes - Stanzas (a terrible poet), Darius (the runt of the litter) and Hermaphrodite (born a girl) - travel to compete in the ancient Olympics and take on the heroes of the sporting world with epic results for mankind.

Gathering a clutch of 5 star reviews at Edinburgh Fringe, this ridiculously funny show uses clown, original music, song and shadow puppetry to render their
audience helpless with laughter.

"Definitely triple gold"

KEPOW THEATRE COMPANY PRESENTS KEVIN TOMLINSON: ON THE EDGE!

Cost:  £12 (£9 concessions)
            £6 restricted view
Time:  8pm in the Djanogly Theatre
Age:     Suitable for 7+ years

Running time: 115mins including interval

Fresh from a sell out world tour of Canada, America, New Zealand and Norway. This wonderful improvised comedy theatre show explores all those moments in life when we are “on the edge”. Falling in love, leaving home, getting a job, bungee jumping, you name it, this show explores it!

Masks, puppetry and even a slide show are sometimes included in this show which has received 5 star reviews wherever it has been seen, and is now being considered as broadcast potential by the BBC. Essentially a comedy - with touching moments in it - On the Edge has been seen at over 200 venues across the UK.

Kevin Tomlinson and Abi Hood (The Bill) take suggestions from the audience and then improvise amusing or touching scenes, based on these ideas.

Following the huge success of his first visit to Lakeside with The Nearly Naked Chef, and fresh from huge success in a lunchtime slot at the Edinburgh Festival, Hardeep returns to Lakeside with his chat show with curry!

Hardeep combines his first true loves of cooking and chatting in his own unique, articulate and utterly charming way. He will interview local celebrities and guests whilst cooking up a curry that audience members can get the chance to sample.

"Kohli’s cookery and anecdotes left a reassuringly warm aftertaste"
**** The Times

"The audience loved him and although I wasn’t one of the lucky ones to taste his curry the smells were amazing, his guests were engaging and fun and Hardeep made an approachable, informative host"
