Chichester Festival Theatre Announce Winter Season 2016

Ken-Stott-and-Reece-Shearsmith-in-The-Dresser-Photo-by-Hugo-GlendinningWe’re confirmed fans of Chichester Festival Theatre  here, and for us their announcement of a new season is a bit like Christmas! The Winter 2016 season has a great range of entertainment and there’s sure to be something for everyone’s tastes! Edward Fox, Liza Goddard, Amanda Holden, Felicity Kendal, Robert Powell, Reece Shearsmith, Ken Stott and Imogen Stubbs are among the stars appearing in plays by writers from Alan Ayckbourn to Ronald Harwood, alongside contemporary work from Frantic Assembly and Spymonkey.
A-Room-With-A-View-_-Felicity-KendalFavourites such as Moscow City Ballet, the Christmas Concerts and BBC Concert Orchestra return, and there’s plenty of entertainment for families and youngsters from toddlers to teenagers, including Chichester Festival Youth Theatre’s Peter Pan for Christmas, and the hugely successful Running Wild which comes home to Chichester after a successful London run.
The tribulations and triumphs of a weekly tap-dancing class; the life of a beloved Poet Laureate; the shattering truths behind family life; a comedy of errors in an English country garden; the heady romance of period Italy; a wartime backstage drama; the wonder and danger of the Indonesian jungle – all can be experienced from the comfort of a Theatre seat this winter.
Before all those, however, our final productions of the Festival 2016 season see us collaborating with the National Theatre as we bring their highly acclaimed political drama This House to the Minerva Theatre stage, followed by the ‘giddily blissful’ pairing of two of Shakespeare’s greatest romantic comedies, Love’s Labours Lost and Much Ado About Nothing, from the Royal Shakespeare Company. Both these productions will be transferring to the West End following their Chichester runs.

"Certain games you look to, maybe against like the likes of Cardiff or Sheffield or Nottingham" - Josh Roach looks to the season ahead for the Belfast Giants

With player announcements in full flow, CHL fixtures next month and the Elite League season hot on its heels what better time to get back to chatting with players on what they are up to and their thoughts on the season ahead. Fresh off announcing his return to the  Belfast Giants we caught up with Josh Roach . “We're starting to get close to that pre-pre-season time, so I’m enjoying a little bit more relaxing before we get back into it… it won't be long.” Roach tells us, before sharing how he has spent his summer. “I was home for a quick visit right at the end of the season and then we went on a little holiday, but other than that I've just been on the island. It's kind of nice to have some downtime in Belfast and explore around here a bit more.” “You don't really get the opportunity many times to stay for summer in the place you play, so you get comfortable. This is year five for me, so it is really is like a second home and honestly, it feels more weird t...

Building for the new season in Belfast

With Adam Keefe's testimonial and their HospICE Hockey fundraising game in the rear-view mirror, it's time for Belfast Giants to set their sights on the season ahead and their first announcement, late last week, was a belter as they confirmed Keefe would return for another season as head coach. In addition to Keefe's return the first player signing of the new season has been announced, with the return of fan-favourite forward Scott Conway. The team's top scorer last season, is beloved by Giants fans and the sort of character this league needs more of. His ability to wind up the opposition means opposing fans love to hate him and he does a brilliant job of finding motivation for his teammates and weak spots in the opposing team's armour. Conway may have been the first returnee to be announced, but the news is coming thick and fast now, with Scott's linemates David Goodwin and JJ Piccinich back for more and Ben Lake committing to his sixth season at the SSE Arena....
