STOMP- London Theatre

29/01/2009

Join us for top seats at discount rates to see Stomp!


STOMP
has no words - everyone can understand it. It has little or no melody in the traditional sense, so it doesn't matter if your taste in music is jazz, classical, dance or pop. STOMP is about rhythm, which is common to all cultures. Everyone knows rhythm, if only from the beating of their own heart - it is the basis of all music.

STOMP is about a group of people, with very strong personalities, who work together using simple building blocks to create something complex , something everyone can identify with: everyone has, at some time, to engage in group activity, whether they like or know the people they are working with or not. It's the little idiosyncrasies, the differences between people, and the games of one-upmanship that ensue, which define the group dynamic.

 Meet us @7.15pm  in the bar for your complimentary drink!

Andrew Lloyd Weber’s Sunset Boulevard

11/03/2009

'Full of throttle & Full satisfaction' (Sunday Times)


Norma Desmond was the greatest silent movie star of them all, until the advent of the talkies made her a has-been. Joe Gillis was a struggling screenwriter until, by chance, he pulled his car into the driveway of 10086 Sunset Boulevard, home to the reclusive Miss Desmond. This chance encounter would change their lives, forever.

Craig Revel Horwood’s poignant, compelling and inventive new production sold out prior to the opening of its run at the Watermill Theatre, Newbury this summer and now transfers to the West End’s intimate Comedy Theatre.

Andrew Lloyd Webber’s stunning musical adaptation of Billy Wilder’s classic 1950 film captures the haunting world of the Golden Age of Hollywood. With book and lyrics by the Oscar-winning partnership of Don Black (Born Free, Diamonds are Forever) and Christopher Hampton (Les Liaisons Dangereuses and Atonement).

Members please note, your booking/s and your complimentary drink's order will need to be in by Feb 09
