Bookish is a brand new project by theatre makers and performers Laura Mugridge and Tom Adams. It's five books, each inspired by a different book.


As part of the development of the project, they are offering customers of Rye Books an opportunity to see the first two shows, The Dairy Book of Family Cookery and Tales Of The Unexpected, both contain live, original music and brand new stories.



The Dairy Book Of Family Cookery.

Laura and Tom look at the classic 1983 recipe book, they both had it in their houses growing up, so made a sweeping generalisation that everyone did. The show will include an interview with the photographer of the meals, a report of when Laura and Tom went to a diary and and a blow by blow account of when Laura did a dinner party with only meals from the book.


Tales Of The Unexpected- Roald Dahl

This collection of short stories is dark, funny and,well, unexpected. Research so far has included bees, tattoos and taxidermy. Tom has also looked into what makes a good short story, and where Roald Dahl went for inspiration.


Come along on 7th April at 7.30pm to see these two mini shows by two award winning performers. There may even be wine, there'll definitely be a cake.

      Well if not housing with a bit of social attached, perhaps a local supermarket or a restaurant/ chain food place. Can’t think of anything else  that would for the bill unless a private dentist or even something like Tessa Jewel to serve that section. Pity that skate park might go - guys and gals put so  much work into it but have to  move with times. Community centre?  Anyone have any other ideas? Nice to explore….. Meant Jowel - not Jewel…

      I have noticed this year that those plants of mine that 'berry' have berry-ed up excessively this year, particularly the mahonia. Old wives tales suggest this would suggest a harsh winter is in the offing - it will be interesting to see if this saying bears fruit (see what I've done there?).

      Do you feel unsafe in London?

      That totally passed  me by- agree with  you totally - think  she must be going thru a bad patch - as Jazzer has mentioned somewhere else, has totally changed her tune but saying that, we all have bad  days and need to get things off our chest. Moving on….never been a fan of Croydon myself - use to have to relocate clients there years  - like everywhere some nice parts and some  not so nice. Not a place  I would go to for a mooch or shopping myself.

      Thanks Penguin. It could be a coincidence. But after years of road safety being on the local agenda they finally put the crossings in months before Dulwich Estates regain the lease on The Grove.   The Estate understands there is strong local interest in improving this area and we hope to be in a position to share some exciting updates in the near future. The temporary skatepark will remain unaffected. “Temporary skatepark” is telling.
