SUMMARY:The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists | Faversham Assembly Rooms
DESCRIPTION:Due to ongoing refurbishment of The Alex’s main hall\, this show will take place in Faversham Assembly Rooms\, on Preston Street. \nThe Ragged Trousered Philanthropists\nadapted by Neil Gore from the book by Robert Tressell\,\ndirected by Louise Townsend \nNeil Gore presents a one-person version of the classic novel by Robert Tressell featuring projection\, political conjuring tricks\, live music and song. Meet the famous characters and enjoy the scenes\, speeches and songs\, featuring the Great Money Trick as its centrepiece. \nThis enduring and absorbing classic story of a year in the life of a group of Edwardian painters and decorators is brought to life by Neil Gore using his extensive knowledge of the book and the play\, having performed it in many versions over forty years. \n‘The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists’ follows a group of workers as they renovate ‘The Cave’\, a three-storey town house\, for Mayor Sweater. It traces their hardships and struggles for survival in a complacent and stagnating Edwardian England. These workers are the ‘philanthropists’ who throw themselves into back-breaking work for poverty wages in order to generate profit for their masters. They are joined by artist Owen\, whose spirited attacks on the dishonesty of Capitalism along with his Socialist vision\, highlights the exploitation in their workplace but also focuses on the inequality in society as a whole. \n\n“Tremendous” The Times\n“A one person Tour-De-Force” Clare Brennan (The Observer) \n“10/10 Sensational” Liverpool Echo\n“A strong and robust show that brings the characters\, humour and inspirational ideas of this great book to life. It is needed now more than ever. You’ll leave the theatre and join the struggle!” Ken Loach\, Film Director \n\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GM9lWrzw7I

SUMMARY:The Irish House Party
DESCRIPTION:Important Notice: Fire at the Alexander Centre\nFollowing a fire in our main hall on New Year’s Eve\, the event has been rescheduled to Sunday\, 7 March 2027. \nWe apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding. \nTo read more about the fire and its effects\, please click HERE \n\nAt last\, an Irish music show that has come out of Ireland without the clichés that usually follow! There are no twee costumes or backing tracks here. Instead you get incredibly talented musicians and dancers who simply want to bring you the sound and fun of Ireland in an intimate and homely setting. \nThe live music\, Irish dancing and banter is infectious and enters the psyche in seconds. The show itself features All Ireland champion musicians and world champion dancers who combine a unique blend of light hearted audience interaction with fascinating stories about the music and the instruments themselves. \nThe original show was set up in Dublin by a group of musicians who wanted visitors to the city to experience what a real Irish house party is like. It’s all presented in a fun and humorous way resulting in a fabulous theatre going experience. \nDon’t miss the chance to experience a true taste of an Irish House Party live on the theatre stage! \n“Really enjoyed your performance tonight\, wonderful musicianship. An Maith!” Dara Ó Briain\n“Music\, culture\, warmth\, humour\, entertainment – This is Ireland! “ The Times\n“It was spectacular! It was one of those shows where the artists and audience found their vibe within seconds and it just went off!’” Tung Auditorium\, Liverpool
