Houdini’s Greatest Escape

About Houdini’s Greatest Escape

Harry Houdini is the world’s greatest entertainer.

Just as his death-defying escapology stunts have him and his wife, Bess, on the cusp of a career-defining performance for King Edward, he finds himself framed for murder by a gang of criminals in cahoots with the chief of police.

Can Harry & Bess escape the plot and clear their names?

And how is their rival, The Superstar Spiritualist medium, involved?

All will be revealed in this hilarious 39 Steps-esque thriller, played out in Chippy favourite’s New Old Friends’ (Crimes on Centre Court, Crimes Camera Action) inimitable, award-winning style of physical comedy, sparkling wit and just a touch of chaos.

Featuring a hard-working cast of four playing multiple roles on an almost harder-working set, this show will have you laughing and gasping throughout at the magic of theatre and the ‘real’ magic of illusions designed by TV’s Pete Firman (BBC One’s The Magicians).

About The Theatre Chipping Norton

The Theatre Chipping Norton, sometimes called The Theatre, Chipping Norton or Chipping Norton Theatre, is a theatre, an arthouse cinema, a gallery and a concert hall in Chipping Norton.

The theatre has has 217 seats, including stalls and a balcony. It is a resource for the community, and it is also a professional venue, welcoming over 55,000 customer visits every year.

It is something unique, but it is also different things to different people. It is the cause and subject of many arguments and debates; and a fair amount of acclaim and affection. It is complicated and a little eccentric.

It is not a little theatre. It likes to make a big noise.

Coppers & Gold

About Coppers & Gold

Coppers & Gold is a double bill of short comedies from veteran performers Kate Stafford and Nicholas Collett, based on the infamous Brinks-Mat robbery of 1983 when £26 million was stolen and never recovered.

‘Coppers‘ is set in a fictional Home Office, where the Minister and the Chief of Police grapple with the embarrassment of having rings run around them by a criminal gang.

How to manage the press, the huge public interest in the heist, and pressure from the Prime Minister who wants instant results?

Political speeches go horribly wrong, press conferences descend into chaos, and the secrets they have been hiding for years threaten to reveal themselves with hilarious consequences.

The second part of the evening is ‘Gold!’, a sharp new comedy with a big heart and loads of cracking pop hits from the 1980s.

Julie and Dave are a normal suburban middle-aged couple living a quiet life but hiding a big secret – a huge stash of gold bars stolen from some very bad men four decades ago.

Now, their daughter wants an expensive Instagram-worthy wedding, and the elderly gangsters are out of jail and looking for their gold. What are they going to do?

Sinatra: Raw
2024-04-20 19:30 - 21:10 | Kenton Theatre, Henley-on-Thames, 19 New Street, Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, RG9 2BP
Richard Shelton in Sinatra: RAW

About Sinatra: Raw

The critically acclaimed, multi-award-winning show ‘Sinatra: RAW’ stars actor and singer Richard Shelton, accompanied on piano.

Wolverhampton-born and fondly remembered from TV’s ‘Emmerdale’, Shelton is internationally acclaimed as one of the world’s best interpreters of Frank Sinatra’s music. ‘Sinatra: RAW’ brings to life the man who defined an era and whose musical legacy will never die.

Palm Springs, 1971 – Frank Sinatra prepares for his last pre-retirement intimate show. But his blue eyes are red-rimmed with memories and regret. He drinks ‘One For My Baby’ too many when things take an unexpected twist. This is the 2.00am Sinatra you dream of meeting – dangerous, unpredictable, brilliant.

Regrets? He’s had a few. Sinatra gathers a few friends together in the Purple Room at Palm Springs to sing a few songs around the piano, smoke a few cigarettes and reminisce. As the Jack Daniels goes down, the memories surface. He rails against the iniquities of Mafia allegations, a trail of broken love affairs, a life as the leader of the Rat Pack and a life in Hollywood littered with indiscretions and even a suicide attempt.

At the heart of it is the great love of his life, Ava Gardner – arguably the most beautiful actress in Hollywood and known as ‘The Body’. She’s no pushover and meets him drink for drink and punch for punch as he recalls the heartbreak of their doomed love affair and marriage.

Despite it all, Sinatra emerges triumphant in a belting rendition of ‘That’s Life!’, summing up the substance of the man, and we see what made him such an enduring icon.

Richard Shelton’s masterful take on Ol’ Blue Eyes is a must-see. Pitched somewhere between concert and confessional, this modest show has greatness in it. Shelton’s vocals are remarkable, manifesting not only Sinatra’s sliding rhythms and nuanced phrasing but also the timbre of that famous instrument.

Reviews

“His voice wraps you up. It helps that the Sinatra songbook contains pure gold. But, again, the veracity of Shelton’s flinty performance adds a fillip to his interpretations of the music.”
The Times

“This show packs a surprising emotional punch and Shelton delivers terrific versions of Sinatra’s greatest hits. No wonder the production sells out all over the world.”
The Spectator
