An evening of mediumship with Tony

Chance to Dance Winter The STAG Community Arts Centre, Sevenoaks – January 21 Now in its 17th year, Chance to Dance has once again invited dancing schools, many of which are in the local area, to come together and perform on a professional sized stage. Chance to Dance staged its first performance at STAG Theatre in 1995 when 10 dancing schools were invited. Each year since then, c2d has grown with more schools participating (not only dancing schools, but school dance clubs) and more performances each year. While it is hoped to showcase a good standard of dance, the event also looks for the enthusiasm to perform and show a love of dance.
Suggs: My Life Story in words and
music Churchill Theatre, Bromley – January 23 Suggs: My Life Story in words and music hands you an access-all-areas backstage pass to the Madness frontman's mind as he attempts the dare-devil stunt of single-handedly unravelling the mysteries of his own life. Join him on an emotional rollercoaster through the ups and downs of an astonishing 30-year career spanning pop music, radio, television,
film...and the pie and mash industry. Witness him cannon ball to the heights of pop success, stumble and plummet down through the trap door of failure, and then trampoline back up to catch the passing trapeze of showbusiness success. With musical accompaniment and pointless interjections from his loyal, pianist-come-manservant.

Historical figures and events will come alive on stage and hover at your fingertips. From the horrible Henries to the end of evil Elizabeth, hear the legends (and the lies!) about the torturing Tudors. Find out the fate of Henry’s headless wives and his punch-up with the Pope. Survive the Spanish Armada as it sails into the audience!

The exciting cast and crew bring you an American Diner right into the theatre where 'Big' Tony Tremendo, the diner owner, delivers a show packed with authentic vocals, a live band, comedy and dancers. Relive the fabulous songs of a great rock 'n' roll era wrapped up in a Happy Days family style feel. Meet the waitresses, Maisey, Daisey and Shirley... the Twistettes.

Phil Beer Playhouse Theatre, Whitstable – February 18 Phil Beer is the multi-instrumental half of the West Country’s award winning acoustic duo, Show of Hands. With a professional career of over 36 years, Phil has a great deal of material to draw on for his solo appearances, which are an eclectic mix of traditional tunes, covers of Bruce Springsteen or The Hollies, together with his own compositions and songs from his contemporaries. All are songs and music of memory and significance sung in the subtle and melodic Phil Beer style and interjected with musings and amusings to an almost personal audience. It is a treat of past and current favourites from one of the most popular musicians on the acoustic circuit.
