CHORALE ? A Sam Shepard Roadshow | 16-29 June at Bussey Building


Recommended Posts

CHORALE ? A Sam Shepard Roadshow is coming to SE15!


I am a local producer and proudly present my first show which now comes to London to a local theatre venue, the CLF Art Cafe in the Bussey Building.


Sam Shepard is America's most adventurous and poetic living playwright. His work begins and ends with a road: the route to promise and fulfillment, or damnation - though sometimes the two seem perilously close.


Here is a rare opportunity to experience his work through this unique roadshow that travels the length of that road, backwards, forwards, and any other way it is possible to go.


After a UK tour we are now showing the early piece The Holy Ghostly, the Beckettian dustbowl poem The War in Heaven and the newly devised piece The Animal (You) ? all with a live music score ? in repertoire with the short film Savage/Love by Shirley Clarke. Our musician from band Herons! will also hold free concerts in the bar of the CLF Art Cafe on three nights during our two week run.

    • I’m in exactly the same position.  They badgered me for ages to have a water meter fitted.  I’d prevaricated simply because it’s so tedious dealing with these people but eventually gave in when the communications became increasingly frequent and aggressive and it was done in March 2023. I just assumed I’d then be charged on actual consumption but I received an email this morning with details of the latest price increase and it said, “Since your property doesn’t have a water meter, your bill is calculated in advance based on fixed rates rather than water usage”.  I’m sure they’ve realised I’d be paying much less if they billed me on actual consumption but have not gone out of their way to inform me.  Trawling through their website, for me anyway, is an unutterably tedious chore, but I think I’ll now have to work up the energy over the weekend to pick up the phone on Monday morning and have a word with them.  
    • Great Service again from Andy.  Contacted him with a couple of issues with toilet cistern and shower.  He came over and sorted it all out quickly. Good advice given, reasonable charge for the jobs.  Highly recommend Andy!   
    • Just seen this.  Your post was a bit unnecessary.  I was simply responding to the previous post that children should be cycling on the pavement. But as you say I know shed loads about transport.  Not to the depths that some go down to the minutia.  Some call me the space cowboy.  Some call me the gangster of love.  I think of myself as the people's poet.  You have to laugh at yourself. Echoing what DKH said, we weren't there, you don't know the parent was making a snide remark, My favourite Dulwich parent story was a few years ago were friends when we were in the Herne garden a few years ago, who let their children run riot.  Bless.  One decided to turn the hose on spraying some poor drinkers.  Now most of us would be mortified, but the friends welcomed their child's creativity.
