Six for the Charleston - and Two for Love
Bath Unity Players Fun, fast and furious, two married couples, two admirers who turn up unannounced, staff with ideas above their station, cross-dressing, crossed-wires – just a glimpse of the Bath Unity Players’ summer play. A musical farce set in the 1920’s with original music and delightfully witty dialogue. Not to be missed! |

Alfie Moore: I Predicted a Riot
Phil McIntyre Entertainment After eighteen years serving with the Humberside Force Alfie certainly has a lot of stories to tell, and after five years working the clubs Alfie certainly knows how to tell them. In this show he talks about the history of protest and riots (including ones that he has been personally involved with!) with lots of digressions regarding his experiences on the beat.
From the Nika riot in 532 AD through the May Day riots in 1517, right up to date with the recent English summer knockabouts Alfie talks about what causes these incidents and what it feels like to be on the other side of the riot shield.
Find out what it’s like to be on the front line dealing with the most challenging awkward squad of them all: The General Public.
Have you never wanted to ask a policeman where he kept his truncheon?
Alfie Moore was one of the breakout stars of ITV's hugely popular Show Me The Funny programme hosted by Jason Manford as well as BBC3's Bizarre Crime. |

Al Parrish
Al Parrish’s huge, charismatic stage presence, his boundless energy, and “that voice” brought fans to Tanglefoot shows at the Rondo. Since Tanglefoot's demise in 2009 Al has been touring Canada and the USA non-stop. Using the songwriting and story-telling magic he honed during 17 years of international touring and the creation of six CDs, he has developed a charming and riveting show which includes new, original material, some carefully chosen covers and a few Tanglefoot favourites. All these songs are accompanied on acoustic guitar, his trademark double bass, or simply sung a cappella. |

Silly Songs of Shakespeare
New Old Friends Rondo favourites New Old Friends return with a five-star show that fully fulfils its title; there are songs, they are silly, and they are loosely connected to Shakespeare. But fear not those who aren’t devotees of the Bard’s work, this is a show so musically and comically inventive that even those who hate the nation’s poet will enjoy. Spend the evening with Fearg and The Songettes; the world’s first Shakespearean tribute band. There is a plethora of different musical styles and interpretations on display, each one as silly as the last and guaranteed to make you laugh.
“a riotous evening of amiable lunacy... leaving this critic gasping at the sheer skill of it. Genius.” – ***** Venue Magazine |
The Rondo Theatre is supported by Bath and North East Somerset Council.
