Giants of Science
Venue: The Georgian Theatre Royal
Time: 7.30pm
A raucous romp through the hilarious history of science with this comic duo.
Howard Coggins knows nothing about Science. Stu Mcloughlin knows even less.
Nevertheless, they have agreed to give a lecture on the subject, and after enlisting the help of the smartest scientific sages of the ages, that’s just what they aim to do.
But even with the likes of Albert Einstein, Galileo, Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin and… um… Kriss Akabusi along for the ride, the chances of the dim-witted duo making it through the evening with any sense of dignity remaining intact seems less than likely.
Still, they’re determined, like a pair of atoms missing a couple of electrons, to stay positive. With jarring jokes, pitiful puppetry, and the silliest of scientific songs, you can expect an entertaining and hilarious evening. It might even be… scien-triffic!
14+ age recommendation

Acclaimed musicians Chris Green and Sophie Matthews take in 600 years of musical history in 90 minutes!

Featuring long forgotten songs and tunes (not to mention jokes!) Chris and Sophie paint a vibrant and vivid picture of our musical DNA, mixing the familiar and the obscure, the raucous and the reflective and the courtly and the commonplace.
Add to that the wit of Blackadder and 1066 and All That and the stage is set for a veritable musical feast!

Quentin Crisp: Naked Hope
Venue: The Georgian Theatre Royal
Time: 7.30pm
From a conventional upbringing to global notoriety via The Naked Civil Servant, Quentin Crisp was an extraordinary raconteur and wit.
Openly gay as early as the 1930s, Quentin spent decades being beaten up on London’s streets for his refusal to be anything less than himself. His courage, and the powerful philosophy that evolved from those experiences, inspire to the present day.
This much-acclaimed solo play, starring Mark Farrelly, shows Quentin in his beloved Chelsea flat in the 1960s, and in his final years in his adopted New York.
Naked Hope is a gloriously uplifting salute to a true one-off, and a timely reminder of the urgent necessity to live every day as your real self...no matter what they say.
Farrelly’s mastery of his audience is total. Brilliant. ★★★★ Time Out
Age recommendation: 12 years+
Tickets cost from £11 to £16 and are available from the Box Office on 01748 825252 or via the online booking service.

Shylock
Venue: The Georgian Theatre Royal
Time: 7.30pm
The tragic, funny and often unbelievable life of fiction's most famous jew.
Is Shylock, the Jewish money lender from The Merchant of Venice, a villain or victim?
Gareth Armstrong's award-winning solo play, performed by Rhodi Miles, confronts these Jewish stereotypes through the eyes of his only friend (and the only other Jewish man in the whole of Shakespeare) Tubal.
Promoted to centre stage from his minor role in The Merchant of Venice, he proves a born comic storyteller.
Celebrating the richness of Shakespeare's language and conjuring up a whole cast of characters from Portia to Pontius Pilate, from Romeo to Max Reinhardt, and from Barabbas to Richard Burbage, this dazzling, moving, often hilarious play is a fascinating exploration of Shylock and his people.
Tickets cost from £11 to £16 and are available from Box Office on 01748 825252 or via the online booking service.

Steve Knightley: Roadworks
Venue: The Georgian Theatre Royal
Time: 7.30pm
An evening of songs and storytelling with this legendary star of the folk and acoustic music scene.
Steve Knightley has spent much of his life on the road, collecting songs, stories, anecdotes and observations – with the odd disaster along the way.
Best known for his work with the award-winning acoustic roots group Show of Hands, Steve has performed in venues from the Albert Hole in Bristol to the Albert Hall in London. His impressive back catalogue of songs are modern classics, still filling the folk clubs and festival fields, and forever influencing the next generation of folk artists.
In 2019, Steve once again takes to England’s highways and byways to present ‘Roadworks’ – a show which builds on the success of his sell-out 2018 solo tour ‘Songs and Stories’. This is a stripped-back, one-man show that is infused with wit, warmth and alchemy, and beautifully illustrated by his trenchant songs of history, love and conscience. Anyone who’s ever wondered what it’s like to be a touring musician will love this rare insight into life on the road.
Tickets cost £20 and are available from the Box Office on 01748 825252 or via the online booking service.

Short Stories
Venue: The Georgian Theatre Royal
Time: 7.30pm
RADS present an evening of three one-act plays by Noel Coward, Richard James and Gillian Plowman.
STILL LIFE – Noël Coward
Coward wrote this short play in 1935 for ‘Tonight at 8:30’, a cycle of ten one-act plays. This is the play that he expanded into the screenplay for ‘Brief Encounter’ and takes place in the refreshment buffet at a provincial railway station. A pair of lovers are conflicted by their own sense of duty and morality.
BEING ROSE – Richard James
Rose looks back over her life and we see her memories of the important people and key moments of her life replayed before us. As her confusion increases, a doctor's diagnosis explains it all.
Richard James trained at the prestigious Bristol Old Vic Theatre School and is well known for his appearances on children’s television and touring the UK in stage adaptations of David Walliams' most famous books.
THE JANNA YEARS – Gillian Plowman
Ruby's boarding house is home to an odd mix of characters in this moving and well-observed play about four lonely people.
Plowman's writing receives wide recognition for its ability to handle important and sensitive topics with humour and insight. Many of her one-act plays are constantly being performed in festivals and colleges.
Tickets cost from £7.50 to £13.50 and are available from the Box Office on 01748 825252 or via the online booking service.

Top antiques expert David Elstob will be hosting a free valuation day at The Station for all your antiques, fine art and collectables.

While there is no obligation at all attached to the valuations, anyone wishing to sell an item will be given the option to have it included in the next auction at the Bedale saleroom.

Dear Diary
Venue: The Green Howards Museum
Time: 7pm to 8.30pm
Join the museum team for an entertaining and poignant evening of readings from some of the literature in our care.
It’s often difficult to meaningfully display examples of text within our museum cases so we thought we’d use this Museum Talk as an opportunity to make a feature of the written word.
Innermost thoughts, and insightful observations drawn from a range of memoirs, letters and diaries in the museum’s extensive collection of personal papers, plus some surprising entries from official records.
Tickets are £5 and can be booked by phone or online.

Shanghai: Revolutionary City
Venue: The Green Howards Museum
Time: 7pm to 8.30pm
Museum Director, Lynda Powell explores the role of the men sent to Shanghai to serve British interests.
During the 1920s, Shanghai was crawling with spies, missionaries, political agitators and colonial entrepreneurs. Many countries, including Britain, made lucrative treaties with the Chinese, enabling them to establish trading outposts outside the ancient fortress city, and channel much-needed cash into near bankrupt post-war economies back home. The Green Howards were part of this intoxicating environment.
Tickets are £5 and can be ordered online or by phone.
