SUMMARY:Twelve People Telling True Stories — Phone-Free\, Alcohol-Free\, Central London
DESCRIPTION:There is a room in central London where\, one Saturday a month\, twelve people sit in a circle and tell each other true things. No one is on their phone. No one is drinking. And nobody has to say a word if they don’t want to. \nThe Story Blanket runs intimate storytelling circles for people who are tired of the same three conversations. Where do you work. How was your journey. Have you been away anywhere nice. The format is deliberately simple: twelve people\, one question\, and an hour and forty-five minutes with nothing else competing for anyone’s attention. \nThe afternoon has four parts. The Arrival is ten minutes with a hot drink before anything formal begins — no one is put on the spot\, and there’s time to settle. Then The Question: a single prompt is offered to the room\, and whoever wants to answer it does\, four or five minutes each\, no notes and no preparation. Past circles have started from questions as simple as “your favourite place in the world” and gone somewhere nobody expected. \nThe Pause comes next — twenty minutes of tea\, coffee and snacks\, and the conversations that tend to start the moment the formal part stops. Most people say this is the best bit. Then The Return\, where the circle picks up the same question again\, except by then the room has changed and people say things they wouldn’t have said an hour earlier. \nTwo rules\, and only two. Phones go into bags when everyone sits down. And there’s no alcohol — not out of principle\, but because the conversation goes somewhere different without it. \nWhat there isn’t: networking\, name badges\, icebreakers\, or any obligation to perform. “Listening counts as participation” is stated plainly on the ticket page\, and it’s meant literally. Plenty of guests sit quietly through the first round and speak in the second. Some don’t speak at all\, and that’s a completely normal way to spend the afternoon. \nMost people come on their own. The format is built for it — a circle of strangers turns out to be easier to be honest in than a room of people who already know your version of yourself. \nThe first circle ran on 1 August 2026. One guest wrote afterwards that she “left feeling genuinely moved” and found herself “rediscovering parts of my own past\, including little forgotten pieces of childhood I hadn’t thought about in years.” Another called it “the perfect antidote to digital fatigue.” \nThe next circle is Saturday 17 October\, from 1:15pm to 3:00pm\, in central London. The sitting is capped at twelve people. The room holds more; they seat twelve\, so that everyone who wants to speak can. \nCoffee\, tea\, water and sweet and savoury snacks are included. Allergens are clearly labelled\, though specific allergies can’t be catered for. The full address is emailed to ticket holders twenty-four hours before\, and tickets are fully refundable up to seventy-two hours beforehand. \nThere’s an Early Seat rate of £24 for the first four tickets\, then £34.99 for the remaining eight. \nGuests are invited to bring something small to hold — a book they’re reading\, a photograph\, an object with a story in it. Nobody has to use it. Most people find they want to. \nTickets: https://buytickets.at/thestoryblanket?ref=whatsonnorth\nWebsite: thestoryblanket.co.uk

SUMMARY:Simon Yates of Touching the Void – My Mountain Life
DESCRIPTION:A fascinating and humorous evening\, acclaimed by both regular theatre patrons and outdoor enthusiasts alike! \nOn the remote Siula Grande in Peru in June 1985\, mountaineer Simon Yates found himself in a desperately unenviable position. He was slowly being pulled off the mountain face by his injured partner\, Joe Simpson\, dangling on the rope 50 metres below. His decision to cut the rope saved both their lives in the epic of survival that followed and with the publication of the book ‘Touching The Void’\, later film and stage play\, both climbers became household names. \n\nIt was an experience that could have put many off the sport of mountaineering – but not Simon. Over 35 years later\, he is still a very active exploratory climber and guide\, making several expeditions to the mountains each year. From the Arctic to the Antarctic\, Alaska to Central Asia there is hardly a significant range that he has not visited. \n\nCome along and witness Simon’s tireless journey from that mountain in Peru to some of the remotest on the planet and share with him the drama\, excitement and beauty of modern\, lightweight alpinism. Told with wit\, dry humour and lavishly illustrated with images and film collected on his great climbs. \n\n“Simon is a totally engaging speaker\, who both entertains and inspires.”

SUMMARY:LIVE (next to) THE APOLLO Presents JEN BRISTER + Friends
DESCRIPTION:Live Next To The Apollo\, the celebrated premier stand-up comedy club which resides at the iconic Riverside Studios in London – just down the street from THE legendary Hammersmith Apollo!  \n \nAfter rave reviews from Centenary audience members\, Live Next To The Apollo returns to Berkhamsted this Autumn. Previously we brought stars of Live At The Apollo Sara Pascoe\, Finlay Christie\, Laura Smyth\, Stephen K Amos and Hal Cruttenden to the Centenary Theatre. \n \nJen Brister is a critically acclaimed stand up comedian and writer who has been seen on BBC’s Live at the Apollo\, Mock the Week\, Frankie Boyle’s New World Order\, Hypothetical and Sara Pascoe’s Comedy Lectures on Dave. She is a regular performer on the UK and international comedy circuits and has written and performed on BBC Radio 4’s The News Quiz\, The Now Show and presented for BBC 6 Music. \n \n● “Bold sketches\, surreal ideas and slick banter. Keep an eye out.” The Sunday Times \n● “Furiously Funny.” The Guardian \n● “Her energy is explosive. Her use of space and delivery mesmerising” The Sunday Times \n● “Gorgeously talented” Time Out \n● “Blisteringly funny…Brister is a truly natural and gifted performer” The List \n \nMike Gunn A misspent youth and a series of grim jobs cultivated his cynical outlook on life and a perverse desire led him to the world of stand-up. A self-confessed pessimist\, he describes himself as “not a natural choice for a career in laughter”. He has a rare ability to walk close to the line of what audiences find acceptable and yet still remain likable and funny. His reputation for being a bit unfriendly\, a touch dark and even morose is really not true. In real life he’s loving\, warm and philanthropic. Just a bit misunderstood. Mike has supported Michael McIntyre\, Jo Brand\, Alan Davies\, Lee Mack on tour. His TV credits include TV Credits: Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow\, Celebrity Deal or no Deal\, Harry Hill’s TV Burp\, Al Murray’s ‘Time Gentlemen Please’\, Soccer AM \, The Comedy Store (Comedy Central). He is currently a regular on the Sky Poker channel! \n \n● “ONE OF THE TOP TEN STAND-UPS IN THE COUNTRY” The Independent \n● “MIKE GUNN WILL MAKE YOU DIE LAUGHING” The Guardian \n \nEli Hart was a finalist in the Leicester Square New Comedian of the Year 2024 awards and then went on to win the BBC New Comedy Awards 2025. He has a remarkable astuteness for the minutiae of mundane existence. He wears his glum disappointment with pride\, and has a downbeat deadpan delivery that suits his West Midlands accent so well. Imagine a Brummie\, even gloomier young Jack Dee! \n \nThor Stenhaug Norwegian comedian Thor Stenhaug has just returned from his debut solo UK tour. He completely sold-out his run at the Soho Theatre in September\, which followed on from his sold-out Edinburgh Fringe run last summer. Thor has offered tour support for big hitters such as Josh Widdecombe\, Jack Dee and Fern Brady. He was shortlisted for British Comedian of the Year – despite not being British! \n \n● “Stenhaug’s observational storytelling is effortlessly compelling… his material is razor-sharp” The Telegraph \n● “Norwegian comedy god of thunder has a storming debut.” The Scotsman \n● “Warm\, polished and replete with layered gags and clever callbacks” Edinburgh Review \n \n16+ age. Adult language and themes. Very occasionally acts may change from that advertised\, due to their TV and tour commitments\, which are beyond our control. Be assured we will always bill a premium line-up with laughs guaranteed!

SUMMARY:All Together Now – The Beatles & Friends Show
DESCRIPTION:All Together Now – THE BEATLES & FRIENDS SHOW is totally unique in being the first Beatles tribute concert to put together the finest of Fab Four bands with original 60s stars who played with or alongside The Beatles. \nFeaturing LIKE THE BEATLES who have made international TV appearances\, sold out theatres and become – as John Lennon would say – the “toppermost” Fab Four tribute band right down to the sound\, look\, personalities\, mannerisms and accents of John\, Paul\, George and Ringo. \nAlso starring original 60s artists: \n* ROD DAVIS who sang and played banjo in Lennon’s first group THE QUARRYMEN that included Paul McCartney and George Harrison before evolving into The Beatles. \n* KARL GREEN\, former bass player/vocalist and frontman with HERMAN’S HERMITS who topped charts worldwide – briefly rivalling The Beatles in America – with hits like “I’m Into Something Good” and “No Milk Today”. \n* TERRY RICE-MILTON\, lead singer of CUPID’S INSPIRATION on powerhouse hits “Yesterday Has Gone” and “My World”. \nLIKE THE BEATLES have won widespread acclaim for their high-octane stage performances that transport audiences back to the heady days of Beatlemania\, The Cavern\, Merseybeat\, Flower Power\, the Abbey Road sessions\, the rooftop gig and much more. \nFormed in 2008 they are one of the first Beatles tribute bands to get together from a generation who grew up after John\, Paul\, George and Ringo disbanded\, so they bring a freshness and energy that other acts don’t have. \nHaving sourced the best in authentic costumes\, equipment and instruments from around the world\, LIKE THE BEATLES are in a league of their own when it comes to replicating the look and sound of the world’s greatest band. \nBrothers Stephen and Nicholas Guest play the parts of John Lennon on his Rickenbacker guitar and Paul McCartney with a trademark Hofner viola bass while Daniel Powell takes on the role of George Harrison on Gretsch guitar and Michael Lyons plays Ringo on a Ludwig Black Oyster drum kit. \nThe presence of ROD DAVIS in All Together Now – THE BEATLES & FRIENDS SHOW gives the audience a rare chance to see one of the absolute originals behind the birth of The Beatles – a genuine member of THE QUARRYMEN group that brought John Lennon\, Paul McCartney and George Harrison together for the first time. \nROD’s link with Lennon and the formation of THE QUARRYMEN goes back to his days at Quarry Bank High School in Liverpool where the original line-up all hailed from and from where the group got their name. \nHe was still a school when he joined THE QUARRYMEN in 1956\, impressing Lennon and the others with his banjo playing at a time when skiffle and rock ‘n’ roll were becoming all the rage. \nROD left the group in 1957 and went on to Cambridge University while always staying involved in the music business\, reforming THE QUARRYMEN with fellow member John Duff Lowe in 1994 and touring with Cynthia Lennon\, Denny Laine and the Merseybeats. \nKARL GREEN was a key member of HERMAN’S HERMITS who scored no less than 10 top 10 hits in the UK including the No.1 “I’m Into Something Good” and two No.1s in the United States with “I’m Henry VIII\, I am” and “Mrs Brown You’ve Got A Lovely Daughter”\, both in 1965 when they actually outsold The Beatles. \nKARL was bass player/vocalist with the Manchester group from their formation in 1963 and became lead singer in the wake of Peter Noone going solo in 1971. He stayed with the band until 1980. \nWith their jaunty beat sound HERMAN’S HERMITS burst onto the world stage in 1964 with their chart-topper “I’m Into Something Good” and then had a further nine top 10s in the UK alone with “Silhouettes”\, “Wonderful World”\, “A Must To Avoid”\, “No Milk Today”\, “There’s A Kind Of Hush”\, “Sunshine Girl”\, “Something’s Happening”\, “My Sentimental Friend”\, “Years May Come\, Years May Go”. \nKARL remains a much-in-demand performer today\, regularly touring in the United States where HERMAN’S HERMITS were very much part of the so-called British Invasion with The Beatles. \nTERRY RICE-MILTON’S magnificent soaring vocals propelled CUPID’S INSPIRATION high into charts around the world with the highly memorable “Yesterday Has Gone” in 1968 that is still played by radio stations today. \nMaking the most of TERRY’S standout voice the band chose “My World” as their follow-up complete with a propulsive orchestral backing that lifted the song to new vocal highs.
