STEPHEN K AMOS : BREAD AND CIRCUSES

Comedy |
13th December 2017

Wed 13 Dec | Doors 7.45pm | £17.50

Brexit. Trump. No more Mary Berry on the Great British Bake Off. Things are looking bleak, so wouldn’t it be better to just forget all about it? Comic maestro Stephen K Amos might not be able to provide bread to the hungry masses, but no one else is going to put on a better circus. Leave your problems behind for the evening in the company of the ‘effusively charming’ Amos and who knows? Maybe the world will seem just a little bit brighter.

After all, when Ancient Rome needed to distract itself from politics, a few solutions were suggested, but none hit the spot quite like the simple idea of giving the people cheap food and plentiful entertainment – ‘panem et circenses’ or ‘bread and circuses’. Our circuses might no longer involve gladiator fights to the death, but the same principle applies. Modern politics is a confusing mess, so no one can blame you for giving it a miss in favour of a night of laughs.
 
‘Deliciously deft…we roared at ad-libbing that was first rate throughout…you’ll leave the show smiling’ The Times

We're also running a special pre-show Insight event to conincide with this show. Why not join us prior to Stephen K. Amos' performance, in the Warehouse Cafe for a little pre-show light entertainment… 'Three Ways to Write A Great Joke' along with a light buffet. Starts at 6.30pm | £5 Members | £6 Non-members. Simply call Box Office to book your tickets!
