SUMMARY:Jazz Philip Clouts
DESCRIPTION:Making a welcome return to Davenham\, South African born Philip Clouts brings his quartet playing original compositions from his latest CD `Umoya`. On this album\, Clouts’ African inspirations extend beyond Cape jazz to pan-European folksong\, soul-jazz and even drum ‘n’ bass. \nClouts was born in Cape Town and the music of his homeland has stayed with him as he has continued on a voyage of discovery that has led him across all five continents\, soaking up Caribbean calypso and the soulful strains of the Indian subcontinent while honouring and learning from jazz heroes including Bill Evans\, Keith Jarrett\, and Charles Lloyd. \nSince moving to Dorset in 2006 he has responded to his new surroundings with impressionistic compositions that complement and chime with his world music interests\, resonating with folky themes and packing pungent rhythmical punch. \nQuartet Lineup \nPhilip Clouts keyboard/composer\nSamuel Eagles saxophones\nTim Fairhall double bass\nTed Carrasco drums \nBookings can be made via email jazz@davenham.co or telephone Harry on 07717 224 238 / 01606 74502 Doors open 7.30pm music at 8pm.Tickets £12 on the door \nIf you are suffering from Covid symptoms please do not attend and in any case advise us if you are unable to attend for any reason. \nFrom JAZZ@DAVENHAM TEAM\nGREAT GIGS\nFABULOUS BANDS \nClick to see the full Jazz Programme \nSPONSORED BY TATTON BREWERY\nwww.tattonbrewery.co.uk

SUMMARY:AUDITION - 'Allo 'Allo by Jeremy Lloyd & David Croft
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nAUDITION NOTICE – ALLO ALLO \nAuditions will be held on Thursday 20 and Friday 21 July 2023  – 7.30pm at the theatre. \nMembers and non members welcome! \nWritten by Jeremy Lloyd and David Croft \nDirected by April Johnson (april@btinternet.com 07711 709946) \nRun dates: 21- 25 November 2023 \nRehearsals: To be agreed at first read through. Starting with read throughs week commencing 21 August 2023 \nFor this production we need larger than life characters and true comic timing. We want the audience to be enthralled and entertained! So\, if you are a strong performer and would love to be part of this production\, come along and audition! We will have so much fun doing this show\, all we ask is that you learn lines early so we can focus on the character interaction\, the comedy and physical theatre element. \nCHARACTERS \nRENÉ ARTOIS Male\, middle-aged French Café Owner\, playing age 40-60. This is the central role\, René is on stage most of the time and drives the show’s narrative. René is the only character to frequently break the 4th wall to speak directly to the audience. René is a self-confessed coward who tries to remain impartial whilst always protecting his own best interests. He is a harangued but charismatic everyman and despite a rather ordinary appearance seems to have an irresistible allure\, particularly to his two young waitresses and also to Gruber\, a friendly German Officer who likes to frequent the café. This is a physical role which will involve lots of sexual innuendo and a number of amorous scenes! \nCOLONEL KURT VON STROHM Male\, playing age 40-60\, German. The Colonel is the corrupt town commandant who likes to line his own pockets with stolen Nazi treasures. He is a frequent visitor to the café where he seeks favours from the waitresses. He also forces René to conceal stolen artefacts for him and in return keeps secret the knowledge that René is hiding the British airmen in his basement. He is greedy\, vain and self-serving yet remains quite likeable despite all of this. Ideally\, the Colonel should be played by someone who is stocky. The Colonel wears a “wiglet” for a large part of the play. Sings/speaks a line in one of Edith’s cabaret songs. \nCAPTAIN ALBERTO BERTORELLI Male\, playing age 20-50\, Italian. Bertorelli is a flamboyant\, bombastic Italian captain attached to the German forces. He believes himself to be very charming and has a keen eye for the ladies\, but he loves nobody more than he loves himself. Bertorelli is over-the top in both his speech and physicality. Bertorelli is in league with Colonel Von Strohm and also plans to profit from undeclared stolen Nazi goods. He sings /speaks a line in one of Edith’s cabaret songs and has to impersonate Hitler in Act 2. 4 \nHERR OTTO FLICK Male\, playing age 20-50\, German\, preferably blonde but not essential. Herr Flick is an agent of the Gestapo. He walks with a limp and uses a stick as a walking aid/weapon! He is reportedly Himmler’s godson and aspires to be like his Nazi hero. Flick is entirely emotionless and cold\, yet still manages to demonstrate a repressed /mildly sadistic passion for his assistant Helga. Flick is nearly always seen in long leather coat\, pin stripe suit\, leather gloves and glasses. In this show he plays the violin\, dances a tango (stiffly) and also disguises himself as a sexy cinema usherette. Please do let us know when auditioning if you are adept at any of these skills! \nLIEUTENANT HUBERT GRUBER Male\, German\, playing age 20-60. Gruber is a kindly German officer\, who doesn’t much enjoy his official duties (with the possible exception of time spent in his “little tank”). Gruber does enjoy his visits to the café though\, and lives in hope of expanding his relationship with René\, with whom he feels he has a special bond! Gruber frequently walks in on René in a variety of compromising or embarrassing positions. The subtext of course is that Gruber is hopelessly in love with René\, which should be played with subtlety and not overtly camp. \nGENERAL LUDVIG VON SCHMELLING Male\, German\, playing age 40-60. General Von Schmelling does not appear in the TV show but is a similar character to General Von Klinkerhoffen. He is a senior officer who takes his military duties very seriously indeed. He is a strict\, authoritative figure who takes a very dim view of the Resistance\, and corruption within his own ranks. Everyone is terrified of him\, with the exception of Herr Flick. Schmelling is supposed to have a wooden leg and he could also wear an eye patch. \nOFFICER CRABTREE Male\, British\, disguised as a French “poloceman”\, playing age between 20-50. A gem of a part\, this character has some of the most popular catchphrases from the series\, e.g. “Good moaning! I was just pissing by…” etc. Crabtree is a British undercover agent posing as a very sombre French policeman. His knowledge of French is very weak\, and he often uses the wrong vowel sounds leading to comical misunderstandings! The actor taking this role would ideally be tall and slender. This is a physical role and will involve some compromising positions! \nROGER LECLERC Male\, French\, playing age 60+ (can be aged up for the part). An elderly forger and escaped convict he now works for the French Resistance. Leclerc appears in a variety of different disguises (all unconvincing)! In the TV series\, Leclerc was also the pianist who accompanies Edith in the café\, but it’s not imperative Leclerc is a piano player as we can fake it! \nRAF AIRMEN: FLIGHT LIEUTENANTS FAIRFAX AND CARSTAIRS 2 x Male Roles\, British. Fairfax and Carstairs are the British Airmen in hiding in René’s café\, awaiting repatriation with the help of The French Resistance. Should be played as the quintessential “chocs away” happy-go-lucky Brits. Whilst these roles are very memorable from the series\, there are relatively few lines for these parts in the stage show. The airmen pop out of various hidden locations on the set. We may build these roles further to include between-scene sketches as well (TBC). These parts can be doubled with a backstage role and would require relatively little rehearsal. \nEDITH ARTOIS Female\, French\, playing age 40-60. Demanding but faithful wife of René Artois. Despite being a terrible singer\, Edith believes that she is a musical star and regularly performs a cabaret at the café which is usually badly received by the patrons. Edith has 2 musical numbers in the show\, which need to be comically off-key! Edith is very gullible\, passionate and long-suffering. For the audition\, as well as script work we will ask you to perform a short burst of a song of your choice\, preferably with some movement as well. The song can be anything\, but think about the kind of song Edith might sing! Your challenge is to try to make me laugh – singing out of tune won’t be an issue but a bonus! \nYVETTE CARTE-BLANCHE French waitress\, tall and attractive\, ideally brunette. Playing age 18-40. Yvette is a good looking waitress who is having a passionate affair with René. She hopes to elope with him one day. As a side-line Yvette & Mimi “entertain” soldiers in one of the upstairs rooms of the café. Yvette also takes part in the grand cabaret\, so she may need to be able to sing and dance. As part of the audition for this role\, we may ask you to perform a short burst of a song of your choice\, in a comedic and saucy (ha!) style with some movement as well. \nMIMI LABONQ French waitress\, short\, cute. Playing age 18-40. Mimi Labonq is a feisty waitress and secret assassin working for the French Resistance. Mimi is also having a passionate affair with René unbeknownst to Edith or Yvette. She is tempestuous and fiery and often has to be held back from attacking German visitors in the café. As a sideline Yvette & Mimi “entertain” soldiers in one of the upstairs rooms of the café. Mimi also takes part in the grand cabaret so she may need to be able to sing and dance. As part of the audition for this role\, we may ask you to perform a short burst of a song of your choice\, in a comedic feisty style – please think about adding with some movement as well. \nMICHELLE DUBOIS French\, local leader of the Resistance Movement\, playing age 20-40. Catchphrase: “Listen very carefully\, I will say this only once”. Michelle has persuaded a reluctant René to help them hide 2 British Airmen in the cellar. She frequently appears in disguise and is highly passionate about her cause. Speaks with a French accent except when talking to the British Airmen when she adopts an exaggerated upper class English accent. \nPRIVATE HELGA GEERHART German\, playing age 20-40\, preferably blonde. Attractive secretary to General Von Strohm. Helga is in a strange sadomasochistic relationship with Herr Flick. Helga has to strip down to her sexy lingerie in one scene (TBC!!!). She also will be performing a very uptight tango in another scene. Helga is clipped and severe but a sexy seductress lurks underneath her harsh exterior. \nPLUS 4 x Extra actors (Male or female) to appear in various café scenes and also double as stage crew.

Speaks with a French accent except when talking to the British Airmen when she adopts an exaggerated upper class English accent. \nPRIVATE HELGA GEERHART German\, playing age 20-40\, preferably blonde. Attractive secretary to General Von Strohm. Helga is in a strange sadomasochistic relationship with Herr Flick. Helga has to strip down to her sexy lingerie in one scene (TBC!!!). She also will be performing a very uptight tango in another scene. Helga is clipped and severe but a sexy seductress lurks underneath her harsh exterior. \nPLUS 4 x Extra actors (Male or female) to appear in various café scenes and also double as stage crew.

SUMMARY:Jazz Jeremy Sassoon's MOJO
DESCRIPTION:MOJO (Music Of Jewish Origin) charts the history of Jewish artists and songwriters through the ages. It is narrated and played by Jeremy from the piano\, accompanied by his exceptional trio\, and bears all the hallmarks of his inimitable style as an entertaining raconteur. It is well researched but the musical story is told from a personal perspective. \nJeremy explains “The theme of Jewish songwriters has been covered before\, but I noticed that these usually concentrated on a relatively narrow time frame encompassing the Great American Songbook and Broadway musicals. I decided to widen the scope into a story that covers this period but then progresses through rock and roll and into popular music\, right up to the present day. Without wanting to give away too much\, my songwriters range from George Gershwin and Irving Berlin through Leiber & Stoller\,  Leonard Cohen and Carole King\, to Barry Manilow and Amy Winehouse. All in 90 minutes or less!” \nSo\, expect great music\, several laughs\, some audience participation and a few surprises as Jeremy takes you on his personal journey through the contribution of Jewish songwriters to the wonderful world of contemporary music. \n================================================================================== \n\nThe box office is able to take bookings for one gig at a time\, but do make a note of the dates which are of interest to you during our forthcoming season so that you can make your bookings at the appropriate time. \n\n\n\nIf possible\, make your requests via email\, but don’t forget to give us a little bit of notice if you know that you are going to be unable to attend.  We appreciate that there will always be unavoidable\, unforeseen circumstances\, but clearly we want to make places available and fill all possible seats\, particularly for gigs in high demand. \n\n\n\nWe are not a profit making organisation\, but we do want to keep breaking even in order to keep music live. \n\n\n\nBookings :  email jazz@davenham.co \n\n\n\nPlease do not assume that your places are confirmed unless you have had a response from J@D and\, if you have not\, please contact us again \n\n\n\nOR \n\n\n\ncall Harry on 01606 74502 or 07717 224 238 \n\n\n\nDoors & Bar 7.30pm   Gigs start @ 8pm   Tickets £15  \n\n  \n\nIf you are suffering from Covid symptoms please do not attend and in any case advise us if you are unable to attend for any reason.
