Luke Wright

Stay-at-Home Dandy Decadent booze hound, Luke Wright would love to spend his life flouncing around looking fabulous, but back in rural Suffolk he’s got the school run to do.

Spend halfterm with lonely science teacher Mr Hooper; and cry ‘NOT IN MY NAME’ with the irate villagers of Much Harpingon.

Vamos Theatre present

Nursing Lives A heart-warming wartime tale of bravery and love from the UK’s leading full mask theatre company. The story... When Flo, a feisty seventysomething, learns that the hospital she trained at during the Second World War is being demolished, she decides to take one last look – and stop the bulldozers in their tracks... Her illicit visit becomes a personal celebration of friendship, courage, adventure and romance. But is what Flo remembers really the truth, or is history ready to be re-written?

A love story set in the early 1980s of Thatcher’s Britain, Nursing Lives takes us back to the hardworking, heart-breaking, swing-dancing world of the UK’s wartime hospitals. Like all Vamos Theatre shows, Nursing Lives is wordless, telling its story through physical communication, a strong visual design and an original soundtrack. This is a humorous and poignant production from one of the best of the UK’s full mask theatre companies Nursing Lives is supported by Arts Council England, Sanctuary Care and Worcestershire County Council.

Penge native and star of ITV2 Carly Smallman brings you her Edinburgh Festival smash-hit show full of funny songs and stories about romance, online abuse and how to love yourself (even if you, too, are a ‘fat walrus’.) She had it all – a new home, a gorgeous boyfriend, and a regular job on Viral Tap (ITV). But after the first show aired she found herself on the receiving end of some very nasty comments about the way she looks – ‘@itv get Miss Piggy aka @carlysmallman off the air’ Carly’s telly credits include The Rob Brydon Show (BBC), Secret Interview (Channel 5) and various E4 and BBC3 appearances.

Tom Allen Life/Style

Life/Style is about taking whatever life throws at you but still trying to look your best. Plus! Are we too obsessed with what other people think? Is there such a thing as a gay lifestyle? And is dressing up in period clothing ever an acceptable way of dealing with anxiety? No one has Tom Allen’s skewed view of the world, his unique storytelling ability or his talent for being both young and old, insider and outsider, confident and fearful. In 2005 he won both So You Think You’re Funny and the BBC New Comedy Awards. In 2010, Attitude Magazine called him a gay role model.
