Stones In His Pockets
// 11 May
King King // 19 May
Award-winning blues rock band, King King, will
be heading to The Hawth with special guest,
South African blues rock sensation, guitarist and
singer-songwriter, Dan Patlansky. Having scored
two recent radio hit singles on Planet Rock Radio
with the songs Crazy and Hurricane, and a recent
nomination for Best New Band at this year’s Classic
Rock Awards, King King are going from strength to strength. In 2014,
King King won a total of five 2014 British Blues Awards, including Best
Album and Best Band. The nods came from BBC Radio 2 presenter,
Paul Jones, and Classic Rock’s The Blues Magazine. Their support slot
on John Mayall’s 2014 UK tour proved to be a game changer.
This production is presented
by The Theatre Chipping
Norton and The Dukes
Lancaster, in association with
Oxfordshire Theatre Company.
Two actors play a vast array of
eccentric and lovable characters in this universally loved, worldwide comic
theatre sensation. Written with poignancy and sincerity, and performed at
breakneck pace, this play has made a deep connection with audiences
in over 30 countries. A quiet Irish village community is turned upside
down with the arrival of a Hollywood film crew looking for the ‘real’ Ireland
for their latest schmaltzy blockbuster. A pair of extras, Charlie and Jake,
watch with amazement, envy and delight as cultures clash, divas strop
and everyone fights over the last portion of lemon meringue pie.
