Thank you so much for all the get well wishes generally, Phil really appreciates them and has asked me to let you know on his behalf.

Roy, my crew and I would also like to thank everyone personally who attended the show Saturday night at the West Cliff Clacton for their understanding on the night when I had to make the announcement to stop the show and also the theatre manager Rob, Duty Manager Ralph, all the FOH staff and stage/tech management Keith & Dee and all the backstage staff for the sympathetic and professional way they dealt with the ….I’m sure for all of us ….. unprecedented situation mid show, hopefully one we won’t ever encounter again!

Tickets from last Saturdays mid show cancellation will be valid for the rescheduled show on Thursday 17th October, for those who were there Saturday night Roy will change his material round as much as possible in the next 3 months for the rescheduled show, sure there will be some new stuff in the first 40 minutes for you !!! and of course there’s still 40 mins of the show you haven’t seen yet and an ending (trust me) not to be missed, so hopefully you all come back and also hope to see some of you Clacton fans may who not have been able to make last Saturdays show, so hopefully the new date works for you.

Obviously we understand this date may not work for everyone so as promised for those who can’t make the rescheduled date you can obviously obtain a refund from the theatre.

The Lion & The Unicorn

FRIDAY 18th OCTOBER 7.30pm

On the evening of 13th October 1939, six weeks after war has been declared on Hitler’s Germany, Winston & Clementine Churchill meet with Neville & Anne Chamberlain, for a private dinner.

Prime Minister Chamberlain has seen all his efforts to negotiate peace with Hitler shattered, whilst Churchill has been recalled to the cabinet, his dire warnings of the Nazi threat vindicated.

History tells us this was the only time the four ever met alone together socially, and there is no official record as to what transpired during that unique evening…

From the pen of Robin Hawdon (God and Stephen Hawking, A Night In Provence), this compelling new play is by turns epic and intimate, dramatic and moving, and never less than enthralling throughout as it asks the question, how far should one go to pacify a threatening dictator?

Presented as a radio-play-live-on-stage with sound effects and a cast of seasoned performers, you will be transported back to wartime London as Crime And Comedy Theatre Company bring to life the first ever production of this fascinating new drama.

Mark Watson

SUNDAY 10th NOVEMBER 2024 @ 7.30pm 

Mark Watson’s 12-year-old son has just got a phone. His 70-year-old dad has been through the most frightening experience of his life. Both a dad and a kid himself, around the midpoint of his life, the Taskmaster star and multiple award-winner – now also famous as one-third of YouTube cult sensation No More Jockeys – returns.

He’ll consider the search for meaning that we’re all on, with or without Google. There’ll be a lot of jokes, and a show that’s different every night.

★★★★★ ‘A genius-level comic doing what he does best… it’s magical to watch and just so funny’ Time Out Melbourne 

★★★★★ ‘Quite unlike anything else I’ve seen in almost 20 years of covering the Fringe…witty, warm, perfectly judged’ Telegraph

★★★★ ½ ‘An hour or two of our limited span on Earth in his uplifting, witty company is time excellently spent’ Chortle

★★★★ ‘A master at letting us in on his vulnerability’ The Times

★★★★ ‘This is a stand-up operating at the very top of his game’ Independent
