Jive Talkin’

Comments Off on Jive Talkin’

Renowned as the original and very best Bee Gees tribute show, and THE ONLY Bee Gees tribute show that has actually performed with the original Bee Gees! In 1997 Gary & Darren from Jive Talkin’ performed LIVE on HEART FM with the Bee Gees and received great compliments from both Maurice and Barry Gibb.

As with the original Bee Gees, Jive Talkin’ is very much a family affair, with brothers Gary and Darren Simmons taking the roles of Barry and Maurice Gibb, with Darren’s son Jack joining the group in 2014 and taking on the role of Robin Gibb. The guys are supported musically by a four piece band with lead guitar, violin, cello and drums, to ensure that every note in every song is just right!

Wherever the group play they receive superb plaudits; “The Soundalike quality is quite sensational” (The Stage)“Amazing similarity to the real Bee Gees” (Wakefield Express), Absolutely Brilliant (Maurice Gibb), WOW (Barry Gibb)…

For a truly amazing experience and an opportunity to hear all the great Bee Gees hits; Tragedy, Night Fever, Massachusetts, Stayin Alive, Jive Talkin, etc, in a 2 hour explosion of music and vocal harmony, this is a night not to be missed!

THEATRE: Abigail’s Party

Comments Off on THEATRE: Abigail’s Party

This well-known and popular play is a suburban situation comedy of manners, and satire on the aspirations and tastes of the ‘new’ middle class that emerged in Britain in the 1970’s. 

 

Performed at The Caxton Theatre, Grimsby

Written by Mike Leigh

Directed by Debbie Shepherd

Opens Saturday 25 April through to Saturday 2 May 2026

 

Set in the London-side of Essex (theoretical Romford), Beverley Moss invites her new neighbours, Angela and Tony, over for drinks.  They moved into the road just two weeks ago.  She has also invited her neighbour Sue, a divorcee, whose fifteen-year-old daughter Abigail is also holding a party back at their home. Beverley’s husband Laurence is typically late home from work and the ‘gathering’ starts off in stiff fashion as the virtual strangers tentatively get to know each other.  As the ‘hostess with the mostest’ Beverley endeavours to keep the drinks flowing. The alcohol takes effect on the evening.  Sniping, flirting, naivety and too much stress is a cocktail for disaster as the play concludes.
