The Gin Chronicles at Sea

After last year’s ‘The Gin Chronicles: A Scottish Adventure’, The Misfits of London return to The Leatherhead Theatre with “The Gin Chronicles at Sea”, a vintage, radio-style comedy harking back to the Golden Age of The Goons, Tony Hancock, Noel Coward and general mid-century mischief and mayhem. After a surprise visit from his Aunt – a woman of teutonic girth and fearsome oratory – upper-class twit John Jobling decides he should take a holiday, opting for the delights of the Atlantic Ocean aboard one of the most luxurious passenger liners in the world. In a rare fit of common sense, Jobling insists his housemaid Doris Golightly accompany him. What should be a charming voyage across the sea with cocktails, lashings of shuffleboard and no necessity for amateur detection whatsoever becomes instead… well, it’s certainly not what Jobling & Golightly had in mind! Join us for laughter, singing, mystery and a raft of different voices and fast-paced 1940s repartee in this ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ adventure. “A Must-see!” (Broadway Baby) Ticket Prices Adult: £20.00 | Concessions £18:00 | Member £17.00 Please note: A restoration fund of £1.50 per ticket will be charged in addition to the ticket price, to assist with the cost of ongoing maintenance. Dates & Times Thursday 4th June 2026, 7:30 PM BOOK NOW!

Kingston Chamber Concert

Kingston Chamber Concert Musical and Amicable – Mozart String Trios and Flute Quartet in D. Mozart’s sparkling first flute quartet (K285) was commissioned by amateur flautist Ferdinand De Jean and completed in Mannheim on Christmas Day 1777. His monumental Divertimento for string trio (K563) was composed in Vienna in 1788, with Mozart playing viola for the first performance. Meanwhile, over in England, the original Musical and Amicable Society was in full swing – a collective of musicians who met in the Cherry Street Tavern “for practice and recreation”! We take you back to the soundworld – and conviviality – they all shared. Entrance opposite John Lewis. Tickets available in advance and on the door.
