SUMMARY:Comedy:  JOE THOMAS TALKING ALL THINGS THE INBETWEENERS!
DESCRIPTION:We’re talking all things The Inbetweeners at this very special event with actor/comedian Joe Thomas! \n  \nIt wasn’t long after audiences were first introduced to hapless sixth-formers Will McKenzie\, Neil Sutherland\, Jay Cartright and Simon Cooper that The Inbetweeners became one of the nation’s best loved shows. With its endlessly quotable lines and outrageous laugh-per-second banter\, the sitcom attracted record-breaking viewing figures and inspired two incredibly successful feature films. \nCelebrating seventeen years since the show’s debut\, Joe Thomas (aka Simon Cooper) is here in conversation all about the series and taking questions from the audience! Hearing all about Joe’s favourite Inbetweeners moments and behind the scenes misadventures\, as well as its impact on his own life as an actor/comedian\, this promises to be an exciting evening of humour and insight from one of the nation’s best loved young sitcom stars. We’ll also\, of course\, be touching on Joe’s other work\, including Fresh Meat\, White Gold and Taskmaster! \n\nJoe is happy to stay around for a short while after the event and grab a quick photo with every attendee*!\n \n*Photos to be taken with attendees own phones/cameras. Kindly note: this is a quick photo opportunity\, not a Meet & Greet.

SUMMARY:Jazz: QOW Trio
DESCRIPTION:Riley Stone-Lonergan – tenor sax\, Eddie Myer – double bass\, Spike Wells – drums \nA really exciting band for us to have at the club\, QOW TRIO are touring to promote their barnstorming third album on the prestigious Whirlwind Records\, with the fearless threesome roaming further than ever before into the uncharted hinterlands where the deep jazz tradition of the tenor trio\, laden with melody and swing\, ventures into the untamed regions of free improvisation. \nAt the heart of the band is the unmistakeable beat of drummer Spike Wells\, who this year celebrates his 80th birthday and the 65th year of his extraordinary career at the forefront of UK jazz\, providing the driving force behind everyone from the UK’s Tubby Hayes and Bobby Wellins to USA stars Stan Getz\, Dexter Gordon and Roland Kirk plus countless others. \nSpanning the generations and riding at at his side are rising star saxophonist Riley Stone-Lonergan\, whose intriguing compositions and boundless creative imagination as an improvisor continue to dazzle and delight\, and big-toned bassist Eddie Myer rounding up the posse. Their first album ‘QOW TRIO’ was selected as critic’s choice by Jazzwise Magazine for 2021. The follow-up ‘The Hold Up’ was described by BBC Music Magazine as ‘a stunning achievement” and awarded 4**** by The Times and The Scotsman. They’ve spent the intervening time touring across the UK and EU and developing their sound to a new creative peak. Now ‘The Rule Of Three’ shows that three really is the magic number with their most coherent\, wide-ranging and adventurous set of recordings yet. From Ayler to Strayhorn\, from be-bop to calypso\, from cowboy movie to free-jazz shootout\, there’s a surprise at every turn\, but always delivered with total sincerity and conviction and a driving desire to bring the audience with them every step of the way. \n“QOW TRIO are a simply phenomenal live act” – Kevin Whitlock\, Jazzwise \n“From fine to sublime\, the follow-up to this generation-spanning trio’s debut album is a stunning achievement… massively recommended.” – BBC Music Magazine \n“This sets the bar high for album of the year. It’ll take some beating.” – Matthew Wright\, Jazz Journal \n
