Once
upon a stormy night, while
the wind and the rain were
howling outside, the Royals
were all tucked up warm in
bed. Suddenly there came a
knock at the door and a very
wet, very untidy girl was
brought inside. Featuring
puppets and dreamlike projections,
this quirky and inventive
adaptation follows a Prince
in search of a ‘real’
Princess, a clever queen,
a girl who is not as she first
appears, a tower of mattresses
and of course a tiny pea.
Suitable for ages 2-5.

Jude
returns to The Lowry with
her unique blend of observational
comedy, witty wordplay, poetry,

you make it happen? Is there
a link between happiness and
virtue? From falling in love
to appreciating the work of
one's spleen, Jude's upbeat
performance has wide appeal,
a strong feel-good factor
and the ability to leave you
with a suspicion that maybe,
just maybe, everything’s
going to be OK... «

There
aren’t many bands who
can have their videos played
on MTV2 and have real ales
named after them but there
also aren’t many bands
like The Lancashire Hotpots.
Their first album Never Mind
The Hotpots with its comedic
folk observations on 21st
Century life reached No 2
in the BBC 6 Music Album charts.
Their new album Pot Sounds
offers further comic insights
into topics such as climate
change (Don’t Make The
Polar Bears Cry) and Saturday
afternoon shopping (I Fear

John
Cooper Clarke is the Bard
of Salford and, possibly the
funniest man in showbiz. His
poetry is from the street
and his jokes from the working
mens clubs. He began performing
around Manchester as opener
for bands such as Buzzcocks,
the Fall and Joy Division,
in the punk era and hasn't
stopped since. His rapid fire
delivery can be heard, backed
by The Invisible Girls, on
classic albums such as Snap
Crackle and Bop, and his book
and film Ten Years In an Open
Necked Shirt. His best known
tracks include Evidently Chicken
Town and Beasley Street. Both
observations on the grimness
of growing up in post war
Salford. JCC has been namechecked
as a massive influence by
the Arctic Monkeys and his
works introduced to a whole
new generation of fans. John
is the rightful headliner
to the first Salford Festival
of Music Comedy! CP Lee is
a maverick performer, his
seminal band Alberto y Los
Trios Paranois were hugely
influential in the late 70s,
combing pop humour with great
music. The Salford Sheiks
deliver rock standards with
and Eastern twist. Gideon
Conn is a local singer songwriter
who is making a big name for
himself with his quirky, humurous
songs. His style is unique
and he will go far. His first
album arrives soon. This will
be a night of classic music
and comedy for all!

FOR
ADULTS ONLY!!! This
free-wheeling comedy of sexual
manners is London’s

recent years. Taking its lead
from Schnitzler’s La
Ronde, F**king Men is a portrait

sex and intimacy in modern
day America. This insightful
drama looks at a succession
of male couples and strangers,
as they negotiate the before
and after of lust, love and
betrayal and the pursuit of
sex. Some stories are poignant,
some hilarious, but collectively
they provide a fascinating
snap shot of the modern-day
male. Performance
times: Thursday 8pm, Friday
& Saturday 7pm.

The 60s are in full swing!
Joe Orton, hailed as the greatest
comic playwright since Oscar
Wilde, has arrived! But success
has its price. After 16 years
of creative collaboration
with his lover Kenneth Halliwell,
the scales have tipped, and
someone will be left behind.
Starring Little Britain’s
Matt Lucas
and Chris New (Best Newcomer
nomination, Evening Standard),
this dark, funny and moving
play imagines what really
happened; how their co-dependent
attachment became recrimination
and finally revenge. A new
play by Simon Bent. Inspired
by John Lahr’s biography
& the diaries of Joe Orton.
There is a 2pm matinee
on the Saturday.

Following
a sell-out run at the Barbican
Theatre in London with their
previous show Helium, Slung
Low brings a world première
to The Lowry. Milo is a graphic
novelist and his latest offering,
They Only Come at Night, is
eagerly awaited by all in
the know. And now you’re
in the know. You are invited
to the VIP launch of Milo's
most exciting work to date
– a graphic novel on
the imaginary events that
took place one night when
creatures took over a multi-storey
car park. But the rumours
on the internet are suggesting
that maybe those events weren't
so imaginary after all. That
maybe Milo is in over his
head shining a light on a
world that is best left in
the shadows? This show is
a theatre installation, a
promenade piece where seating
will not always be available.
Contains violent images and
scenes of a frightening nature.
Saturday's shows start
half an hour earlier at 8pm.

Sammy, a cast of puppets,
toe-tapping music and award-winning
puppeteer Heath McIvor as
they take you on a magical
journey through the Forest
of Dreams. Take the music
of Disney, the drama of The
Lord of the Rings and the
emotion of Les Misérables.
Then blindfold them, beat
them, regain their trust,
beat them again, and you might
end up with something resembling
this Edinburgh Festival hit
show. Walt Disney gets his
comeuppance in this skewed
tribute to the tales of our
childhood. «

Take
one huge hit sitcom from BBC
TV, place on a stage in a
world première national
tour starring Andrew Dunn
(Tony) and Shobna Gulati (Anita)
from the original cast of
the TV series. Blend in Victoria
Wood’s writing, undoubtedly
some of the funniest on television,
and whip into a play based
on the second TV series, following
the reluctant love story of
Bren and Tony, egged on by
Dolly, Jean, Twinkle and Anita.
Mix in caretaker Stan’s
words of wisdom and coat with
regular appearances by Philippa
from Human Resources and Petula,
Bren’s dreadful mother,
and you have a recipe for
madness, mirth and twelve
rounds of toast!
There is a 2pm matinee
on the Wednesday and Saturday.

He
is known and loved by millions
through his broadcasting on
BBC Radio, his books and TV
appearances. Following his
sell-out appearance in 2006,
Rabbi Lionel Blue returns
to draw on his own experiences
and offbeat sense of humour
to tell a selection of stories,
incidents and conversations
whose dotty inconsequential
flavour will appeal to people
from all religions, and from
none. He’s thoughtful
and funny with it, mixing
humour with humility, compassion
and common sense.

DUE
TO POPULAR DEMAND, THE LOWRY
HAVE MOVED THIS SHOW TO THE
LYRIC THEATRE WHICH IS LARGER
THAN THE QUAYS THEATRE, SO
TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE AGAIN!!!
Five years after he last
toured the UK he’s embarking
on a truly unique stand-up
comedy tour. A lot of acts
will tell you they’re
covering the length and breadth
of the country… but
Dave’s really doing
it. Dave Gorman: Sit Down,
Pedal, Pedal, Stop And Stand
Up will see the intrepid comedian
covering the extremes of the
British mainland as he travels
from this land’s southernmost
point to its northernmost
tip, taking in the most easterly
and westerly points along
the way. If nothing else he’ll
get to see four lighthouses.
Dave will be performing each
and every night of the journey
but as this is a tour that
promises to reach parts of
the country that other tours
just don’t reach, it
goes without saying that the
venues will sometimes be a
little unconventional too.
He’ll play in 2000 seat
theatres but also 30 seat
village halls. He’ll
be performing in a barn, the
odd hotel function room and
– odder still - a railway
dining car. Oh, and did we
mention he’s going to
do the whole thing on his
push bike? The travelling,
we mean. Not the gigs. That’d
be silly. He’ll be standing
up for those. If he still
can. He’s 38 and not
especially fit. 1500 miles.
32 days in the saddle. 32
nights on the stage. His Mum’s
told him not to do it but
he won’t listen. DAVE
GORMAN RETURNS TO THE
LOWRY ON MARCH 13TH 2010
IF YOU WANT TO SEE HIM PERFORM
AGAIN. «

Hilarious,
horrifying and ferociously
entertaining - an achingly
tender insight into what happens
when we become stuck in the
stories we tell ourselves
about our lives. It’s
11 o’clock in the morning
in a council flat on the Walworth
Road in London. In two hours’
time, as is normal, three
Irish men will have consumed
six cans of Harp, fifteen
crackers with spreadable cheese,
ten pink biscuit wafers and
one oven-cooked chicken with
a strange blue sauce. In two
hours time, as is normal,
five people will have been
killed. From Galway to Edinburgh,
from London to New York, The
Walworth Farce has wowed audiences
everywhere. Currently on an
extensive world tour, Druid
returns to The Lowry (The
Cripple of Inishmann, 2008)
with this remarkable and compelling
play by Enda Walsh. If you
haven't already had a theatrical
highlight this year, this
one is sure to be it. There
is a matinee on the Wednesday
and Saturday at 2.30pm.

This
much-loved singer-songwriter
is widely regarded as one
of the finest guitarists in
the world. His latest album
Western Bell features 11 solo
guitar pieces on 6-string,
12-string and a lap slide,
and harks back to the free
jazz explorations of Ornette
Coleman and Coltrane. A brilliant
improviser, he is known for
his ability to put a new spin
on any song any time he plays
it, making for a brilliant
live performance. «
