Scamp Theatre presentsThe Virginia Monologues: Why Growing Old is Great

Written and performed by Virginia Ironside

Directed by Nigel Planer

“...a gentle, life-affirming ramble through the joys of being a

sexagenarian – the bus passes, the bird watching, the

glamorous dressing gowns.” - The Independent

When an agony aunt reaches sixty, she can lie like a

trooper, jump off a bridge – or take to the stage. Virginia

Ironside explains that unlimited free drugs, fun funerals,

grandchildren and sex – or, even better, no sex – make the

sixties the best – and funniest - time of your life…

The Virginia Monologues premiered at the Edinburgh

Festival Fringe to great acclaim and played limited season

of UK sold out gigs in 2010.

"Virginia’s become, effectively, a stand-up comedian. Her

show is really funny…. I urge you to see it.”

- Arthur Smith ‘Loose Ends’ BBC Radio 4

“This doyenne of Fleet Street delivers her observations

with precision, style and wit. Her writing is beautiful, funny,

sensible and smart – and her show, directed by The Young

Ones’ Nigel Planer, is an absolute delight.” - Scotsman

Tickets £10, £8 (concessions)

Michelle Williams, Paul Dano

The Kings Speech (12A)Dir: Tom Hooper. 118 Mins

Colin Firth, Geoffrey Rush, Helena Bonham Carter

Laden with Oscars and BAFTA which richly rewarded one

of the most popular British films of recent years, The King’s

Speech is a model of absorbing story-telling, fine acting

and richly observed history. It’s also probably one of the

last chances to see this year’s multi-award winning film on

the big screen where it belongs.

Tickets: £4.50 (£3.50 concessions)

Saturday 9th July at 2.30pm

Stig of the DumpBy Clive King

Is Stig real or is he the product of Barney’s boyhood

imagination? Lou sees Stig, and so do lots of other

people, but does this mean they really go back in time to

the building of the stone circles? This wonderful musical

production of Clive King’s famous story, with lots of

opportunity for the audience to take part, will be a truly

magical experience.

During the light hearted first act rehearsal some children

are rehearsed into small parts in the show while the rest

of the audience are taught the chorus songs. This is family

theatre at its very best.

Said by the author to be the best adaptation of his novel, this wonderful production will be

another moving and stimulating experience of high quality musical theatre for both children

and adults.

Continues over page

Clive King's wonderful story of Barney and his Neolithic friend Stig has

been a firm favourite with children and adults since it was first published

in the early sixties. Barney and Stig's many adventures in and around the

chalk pit, near his grandfather's house, culminate in a fascinating journey

back in time to the days when there were only Stigs and stone circles.

With beautiful costumes, an ingenious set and wonderful music from

Robert Hyman, this production will continue Image Musical Theatre's

tradition of providing the very best touring productions for theatres and

primary schools.

Tickets £6.50 and £4.50 (concessions)

£20.00 family ticket (2 adults + 2 children)


Win Win (15)Dir: Thomas McCarthy 106mins

Paul Giamatti, Amy Ryan

Disheartened attorney Mike Flaherty, who

moonlights as a school wrestling coach, stumbles

across a star athlete through some questionable

business dealings. Yet just as it looks like he’ll get a

double payday, the boy's mother shows up fresh

from rehab and flat broke, threatening to derail

everything. A touching comedy about family life.

The Magnets

"a cappella band The Magnets are complete pros...they're a band to watch in 2011" -

The Guardian

They are the singing secret that the stars have kept to themselves, the vocal group with a

word-of-mouth reputation for spicing up the parties of supermodels, heads of state and

billionaires with their blend of glorious harmonies and jaw dropping beat-boxing. But now,

after selling out London’s legendary Roundhouse, electrifying performances at the Isle of

Wight and Glastonbury Festivals, and their current sell-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe, The

Magnets are emerging from the shadows as one of Britain’s hottest musical acts.

Literally a ‘six-man sound machine’, The Magnets make all their music with their mouths

alone, including the drums of vocal percussionist/beat-boxer Andy Frost and the richly

textured bass of Fraser Collins. However, this is no attempt to mimic instruments, but rather

the blending of six distinctive voices to create a unique sound that rivals any band with guitars

and keyboards.

At the heart of The Magnets music lies a gift for extraordinarily imaginative arrangements that

radically restyle and subvert songs from artists as diverse as Kraftwerk and Beyoncé.

Highlights include a sun soaked lounge version of Blur’s ‘Girls & Boys', a sultry 'Poker Face'

by Lady Gaga (recently performed for Scott Mills on Radio 1), and their trademark

mega-medleys, currently a show-stopping A-Z of movie themes from A-Team to Zulu.

Now centre-stage in the current revival in vocal harmony music, seen everywhere from Glee

to The Choir, The Magnets have risen from humble beginnings as street performers in

London's Covent Garden. They have enjoyed a colourful subsequent history, including an EMI

record deal, support tours with Tom Jones and Michael Ball, and continuous international

touring from Singapore to the Cayman Islands. They have recently been seen and heard on

ITV1’s Magic Numbers, BBC Breakfast, and BBC Radio 1 and 2.

"a cappella singing straight from the Gods…The Magnets are the epitome of cool" -

Edinburgh Evening News

Hanna (12A)Dir: Joe Wright 111mins

Saoirse Ronan, Cate Blanchett,

Eric Bana

“Atonement” director Joe Wright

shows off his ability to handle

action-movies with this breathless

tale of 16-year Hanna as she

sweeps through North Africa and

Europe on a mission to track down

her past. The sense of a modern

fairy-tale is enhanced by Cate Blanchett

as a nasty queen from the CIA.


Wednesday 27th July at 12noon

Fading southern belle Blanche Dubois depends on the kindness of

13 Assassins (15)Dir: Takashi Miike 141mins

Kôji Yakusho, Takayuki Yamada

Not so much an update on the classic Japanese period epic, 13

Assassins virtually re-invents the form as a small group of samurai

Friday 5th August at 1.30pm

Parent & Baby Screening: Arthur (12A)Dir: Jason Winer 110mins

Russell Brand, Helen Mirren

In the role of a drunken playboy Russell Brand’s Hollywood career

Dudley Moore. Watched over by housekeeper Helen Mirren, Arthur

goes for laughs as well as love.



Some Like It Hot (PG)Dir: Billy Wilder 120mins

Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon

Voted the best American comedy of all time, Billy Wilder’s cool and

sparkles as brilliantly as ever.

This extraordinary documentary of the late German choreographer

Pina Bausch is a collection of stunning, breathtaking dance pieces

using Pina’s company, the Tanztheatre of Wuppertal, both in the

Louise Bourgoin, Mathieu Amalric

Derived from a popular French comic strip the director of

The Fifth Element and Leon spares no expense (it’s budget

Falstaff from no less than five Shakespeare

Le Quattro Volte (U)Dir: Michelangelo Frammartino 88mins

Guiseppe Funda, Bruno Timpano

Practically wordless Le Quattro Volte (The Four Times) is a majestic

celebration of life and living as it weaves through the four states of

hill farmer in rural Italy and ending with dust in the wind this sublime

mediation features the joy and the wonder of life itself.


Friday 19 August at 1.30pm

Silver Screen Matinee: Monsieur Hulot’s Holiday (U)Dir: Jacques Tati 114mins

Lanky, accident-prone Monsieur Hulot goes to the sea-side for his

vintage.

Huge (cert TBC)Dir: Ben Miller 85mins

Noel Clark, Johnny Harris

Very much a labour of love from writer/director Ben Miller (the other

half of TVs Armstrong & Miller). Huge follows the fortunes of a comic

duo as they slog their way up towards the big time, and it’s stuffed with

appearances from the stars of stand-up from Stephen K Amos to Jo

Brand, Harry Hill to Eddie Izzard.


Friday 2nd September at 7.30pm

Bridesmaids (15)Dir: Paul Feig 125mins Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolf

Annie (the hilarious Kristen Wiig) and her wayward bunch of brides-

maids when they fly to Vegas for a friend's wedding and all hell breaks

loose.

Shazia Miraz'In that global menagerie of comedy Mirza is that

rarest of rare creatures. She guarantees an

audience with her biting deadpan observations' -

The New York Times

Shazia is an award winning British Asian stand up

Comedian and columnist from Birmingham sticking

the figurative knife into political correctness with

devastatingly funny effect. She performs all over

the world and has toured the US, Sweden,

Denmark, France Holland and Germany.

Her vast array of TV credits includes CBS ‘60

Minutes’, NBC's ‘Last Comic Standing’,

Paramount’s ‘The World Stands Up’ and BBC’s

‘Have I Got News for You’.

Diane Spencer'A rollickingly good slice of frank, un-gimmicky stand-up. She could be the female Jim

Jefferies, with an honesty and humility that makes her abject embarrassment riotously

hilarious' **** - chortle.co.uk

Nominated for Best Female Comedian by the New Zealand Comedy Guild, Diane is a

globetrotting gagster who is witty, wordy and intelligently armed with hilariously challenging

stories. She performs with such an affable humility she might have you thinking of the girl next

door, but swiftly turns heads as she explodes in a raucously rude and rib-tickling manner.

Ruth E Cockburn'She does something the best comedians do; finds material that the audience recognises from

their own lives, and simultaneously makes them realise how foolish they are.”' – Underground

A regular fixture at ‘Laughing Cows’ at Manchester’s legendary Frog & Bucket comedy venue

and an established playwright with her work having being performed at numerous festivals

from Edinburgh to Sydney; Ruth’s comedy is a perilously potent mix of spot-on, slightly

surreal social commentary and brilliantly inventive, hummable and instantly hilarious songs.

Compere - Kate Mulgrew'An exuberant and affable personality with plenty of memorable jokes' - bbc.co.uk

A resident compere at several comedy venues, Ms Mulgrew supported the Boy with Tape on

His Face on UK theatre tour dates. Charming, witty and with just a hint of a wicked glint in her

eye, Katie’s oddball anecdotal humour is a joy to behold.

My Dog Tulip (12A)Dirs: Paul & Sandra Fierlinger 83mins

Christopher Plummer, Lynne Redgrave

A very grown-up cartoon based on J R Ackerly’s memoir of his

time spent sharing life with a rescued German Shepherd dog is

practically a hymn to the companionship and respect enjoyed by

man and beast. It also embraces the dirty aspects of a dog’s life

but loving a pet is as much about cleaning as preening.

A programme of six short films made for the Central Office of

Information between 1946 and 1950 presents not only a nostalgic

Gainsborough Amateur Operatic Society presentsBlitz!

Coming from Lionel Bart, the composer of 'Oliver!', you

can be assured of a toe-tapping evening of memorable

tunes, comedy and pathos in 'Blitz!'

In 1940 the East End of London is taking a terrible

pounding from Hitler's bombs. Life, however, goes on,

centring around the matriarchal Mrs Blitztein and her large

family - which includes her petty-criminal son Harry and

her beautiful daughter Carol. They all fight their own

particular battles with neighbours and authorities alike,

through many situations, many humorous, some tragic,

and eventually find their own individual peace in that

war-torn world.

'Blitz!' features many hit songs, including "The Day after

Tomorrow", "Who's This Geezer Hitler?", "Far Away",

"Down the Lane" and "Duty Calls". The large cast includes

a children's chorus which feature in “We’re going to the

Country" and the show stopping "Mums and Dads".

A Great British musical!

Potiche (15)Dir: François Ozon 103mins

Catherine Daneuve, Gérard Depardieu

France, 1977. Suzanne is the submissive wife of

ferocious factory owner Robert, but when a combination of

striking workers and a heart attack keep Robert at home,

Suzanne flourishes as his replacement in the boardroom.

Even the return of an ex-lover can’t hold her back. Very

funny. (Potiche, by the way, means a trophy wife).


Friday 23rd September at 7.30pm

The Tempest

‘A theatrical tour de force’ - The Scotsman

An old man is comatose and near death...the play of The

Tempest is his last living second, a time in which his loss

is assuaged and his enemies forgiven. With an

enchanting mesh of mime, masking, movement, and the

music of voice, the two actors conjure storms and

apparitions, lay bare treasons and counterplot, and finally

transport you to a ‘brave new world’ of love and

reconciliation.

The two-man Tempest is an audacious and exhilarating

adaptation of Shakespeare’s tumultuous farewell to the

stage by Geoff Bullen with a specially commissioned

score by the internationally renowned composer Tot

Taylor, including contributions from Stacey Kent, Alan

Barnes, and Simon Warner.

Minimal, magical and not to be missed!

Tickets £10, £8 (concessions)

two kids must actually start to like each other. A film that

will get the whole family laughing.

A cracking French thriller that zooms along like a runaway Metro train

turns on the consequences of a male nurse saving a crook, who then

finds himself chased around Paris by cops and robbers alike. If you

enjoy movies from the edge of your seat Point Blank can’t be beaten.



Parent & Baby Screening: Something Borrowed (12A)Dir: Luke Greenfield 112mins

Kate Hudson, Ginnifer Goodwin

Friendships are tested and secrets come to the surface when

Darcy. A sprightly rom-com with just enough realism to keep its feet

on the ground that will categorically banish the blues.

Beginners (15)Dir: Mike Mills 105mins

Ewan McGregor, Christopher Plummer

Heartbreaking yet at the same time often hilarious

Beginners begins with two revelations that almost

literally floor the son of a father in his mid-70s. The first:

his dad is dying of cancer. Second: his dad’s really gay.

Add a romantic entanglement in the son’s life as well and

you have one of the most touching dramas of the year.
