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


Recommended Posts

CHORALE ? A Sam Shepard Roadshow in SE15!


I am a local producer and proudly present my first show which now comes after a UK tour to London to our 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.


Please visit www.presencetheatre.com for a breakdown and more detailed information and where you can find a link to purchase tickets!


Mondays Theatre for a Fiver ? see the whole Roadshow within 7 days for only ?10!


The after show gigs by Herons! (http://heronstheband.com) will take place on Tuesday 17th, Wedneseday 18th and Tuesday 24th in the CLF Bar are for free from ~9.30pm! Come and join us for a listen and a drink!

    • Niko 07818 607 583 has been doing jobs for us for several years, he is reliable, always there for us, highly recommended! 
    • I am keeping my fingers crossed the next few days are not so loud. I honestly think it is the private, back garden displays that are most problematic as, in general, there is no way of knowing when and where they might happen. For those letting off a few bangers in the garden I get it is tempting to think what's the harm in a few minutes of 'fun', but it is the absolute randomness of sudden bangs that can do irreparable damage to people and animals. With organised events that are well advertised there is some forewarning at least, and the hope is that organisers of such events can be persuaded to adopt and make a virtue of using only low noise displays in future.
    • There was an excellent discussion on Newscast last night between the BBC Political Editor, the director of the IFS and the director of More In Common - all highly intelligent people with no party political agenda and far more across their briefs than any minister I've seen in years. The consensus was that Labour are so unpopular and untrusted by the electorate already, as are the Conservatives, that breaking the manifesto pledge on income tax wouldn't drive their approval ratings any lower, so they should, and I quote, 'Roll The Dice', hope for the best and see where we are in a couple of years time. As a strategy, i don't know whether I find that quite worrying or just an honest appraisal of what most governments actually do in practice.
    • They are a third of the way through their term Earl. It's no good blaming other people anymore. They only have three years left to fix what is now their own mess. And its not just lies in the manifesto. There were lies at the last budget too, when they said that was it, they weren't coming back for more tax and more borrowing. They'd already blamed the increase in NIC taxes on what they claimed was a thorough investigation. They either knew everything then or they lied about that too .   They need to stop lying and start behaving. If they don't the next government won't be theirs, it will be led by Nigel Farage.  They have to turn it round rapidly. Blaming other people, telling lies and breaking promises isn't going to cut it any more.
