The Marvellous and Unlikely Fete of Little Upper Downing
Little Bulb Theatre
Tue 21st February 2012
Most people haven’t even heard of Little Upper Downing, let alone realise that it was once home to the greatest folk duo of all time, that is until the Little Upper Downing Folk Society came to town.
With just enough props – and passion – they share a tale of two unlikely heroes; Derek Badger and Christopher Roaring embark on a journey of self
discovery through fog, friendship, folk music, and the odd ribbon dance.
Little Bulb are a multi award winning touring theatre company who explore the minute human details which, in a world so big, are easily swallowed up.
Duration: 2hrs, with intervals
Post Show Discussion.
“A little show with a lot of heart.”
Lyn Gardner, The Guardian
Ticket Prices: £12/£10 Concessions (£5 Under 26 & Students)
Time: 7.30pm

Stewart Lee
Carpet Remnant World
Sat 17th March 2012
A new full length touring show from the acclaimed star of BBC2’s Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle, ‘The funniest thing on television’ The Guardian.
What can a sexless middle aged married man, whose life now consists mainly of watching Scooby Doo cartoons with a four year old boy, possibly find to write comedy about? Formerly stand-up’s youthful iconoclast, Lee now gawps blankly at News 24 as Britain burns down around him, and blinks weirdly at the vast wayside retail outlets during endless journeys to and from increasingly indistinct provincial theatres.
Once he lived on the pleasure planet. Now he is trapped in Carpet Remnant World.
And so are you.
“ Heralds a new brand of
political stand-up.” ****
The Guardian
“ A deeply unpleasant
slimepit of bitterness.”
Jan Moir, Daily Mail
Duration: 1 hr 30 mins
Ticket Prices: £17.50/£15 Concessions
Time: 8.00pm
