WHALE is a multimedia, alternative comedy special that combines clowning, stand-up, and haiku poetry to explore how far we will go to avoid being honest about our feelings.
Sharing haikus and short stories, Sam is doing everything he can to distract both himself and us from a dark secret. This shapeshifting solo show doesn’t stop for sixty minutes, but how long can Sam keep up this act?
Four actors. Four Shakespeare shows. Endless possibilities.
You – the audience – decide everything, from the play to the performance style. Even which actor plays which part. This hilarious, unpredictable new show, featuring actors whose past experience includes the RSC, Bristol Old Vic, Cheltenham Everyman, Dubai and the West End promises an unforgettable evening of Shakespeare unlike anything you’ve ever seen before!
“Delightfully Daft” (The Stage)
“A chaotic, ambitious, side-splittingly funny interactive Shakespearience” (Westhoff Reviews)
“Though this be madness, yet there’s method in’t” (William Shakespeare)

From humble beginnings on TV’s Opportunity Knocks (where she came second to a singing dog), through her years as Maplin’s chalet maid Peggy in the hit BBC TV series Hi-de-Hi!, to her West End and national touring roles in Godspell, Annie and Little Shop of Horrors, and her more recent TV appearances on Celebrity Masterchef, Gimme Gimme Gimme and Would I Lie To You?– it’s been an action-packed half-century of sheer entertainment. And she’s only getting started!
Su’s new one-woman show Still Fully Charged brings a national treasure face-to-face with an adoring public to celebrate the amazing characters she has been fortunate enough to play, the incredible friends and colleagues she met along the way, and the staggering range of music she has performed and recorded throughout her illustrious career.

Since 2005, the Comedy Club 4 Kids has been getting the best stand-ups, sketch acts and cabaret stars to do their thing for an audience of children (aged 6+) and their families… but without the rude bits! The show is family-friendly but without any patronising idiocy. In fact, it’s just like a normal comedy club, but it’s on during the day, kids are allowed in, and thus there is a higher-than-usual chance of the entire audience claiming to be called Bob.
Twenty years later, the company has expanded from one London residency to being countrywide, running shows and workshops all over the UK from Peebles to Portsmouth, even producing a book on how to write and perform stand-up, and hosting our own Radio Nonsense podcast to bring the sillies to families all over the world.
Grab your coconuts and go on a quest for the Holy Grail.. (or Foley Grail, if you will!)
Upon your arrival, you will be handed a package of foley-delights. Follow your cue-master to add live sound effects – en masse – and make one of the most laugh-out-loud films of all time even funnier!
Released in 1975, Monty Python’s Holy Grail is a comedy masterpiece and cult classic. King Arthur, King of the Britons, faces a multitude of obstacles, including the tenacious Knights of Ni, a rude Frenchman and a killer rabbit on his quest to find the Grail.
This is a silly screening for silly people. We encourage you to dress for the occasion, shout out your favourite lines and arrive upon your invisible horse.
Film certificate: 12A.
