The Winchcombe Players Present

The Vicar of Dibley

A stage adaptation by Ian Gower and Paul Carpenter

Based on the original BBC TV series

Written by Richard Curtis and Paul Mayhew-Archer

Produced by Tiger Aspect Productions

It's the mid 1990's and Britpop rules the airwaves. When the new vicar arrives in the sleepy English village of Dibley the last thing the locals are expecting is a woman. But the irrepressibly cheerful Reverend Geraldine Granger soon wins over the hearts and minds of her flock.

All of the familiar characters are here including Mrs Cropley and her interesting cuisine, Jim Trott with his vocal tics, the dippy star-crossed lovers Alice and Hugo,  the colonically-challenged farmer Owen and David Horton the pompous parish council chairman.

Not suitable for children under 12 due to some adult content.  Tickets £15 in the main auditorium or £16 on the balcony (includes a £1 booking fee added at checkout)

Note that balcony seats are accessed by a very steep and winding staircase and are on church pews.

A concert of light classical and popular music for a summer evening's entertainment.

An all-string jazz quartet of violin (Fenner Curtis), guitars (Andy Bowen and Sam Hughes) and double bass (Tomasz Williams), inspired by the music of the 1930s, '40s and '50s: from Benny Goodman, Charlie Christian and Artie Shaw to Django Reinhardt, Stephane Grappelli and the master of tango Astor Piazzolla.

Their Parisian flavoured jazz and gypsy swing has been delighting audiences for over 15 years from major jazz festivals to the BBC's hairy bikers and the opening of Gloucester Services.

Tickets £16 including £1 booking fee added at checkout.

Seating will be theatre style. Doors and bar open 45 minutes before the performance starts.

A Sons of Town Hall show is more than a concert, it's an immersive experience unlike any other. American songwriter/author David Berkley and British songwriter/ producer Ben Parker are the men beneath the hats in this transatlantic folk duo. They are also stars of the hilarious radio-theatre podcast series Madmen Cross the Water.

Sons of Town Hall is creating an entirely new performance genre: part live concept album, part performance art; the pair conjure their timeless mythic universe under the aliases Joshua Chester Jones and George Ulysses Brown, 19th century vagabonds who travel the world in a hand-built boat to escape troubled pasts and search for adventure and love.

The Sons weave wild stories between their heartbreaking and rousing songs, taking audiences on a deeply imaginative trip every show. For fans of Simon and Garfunkel, Tom Waites and Monty Pytoin alike, concertgoers are uplifted and inspired, transfixed and transformed, in awe of Sons of Town Hall's harmonies, and drunk on adventure and the tragic beauty of the human condition.

Tickets £18 including £1 booking fee added at checkout.
