What's on in Dolemeads

Somerset, England

Dolemeads sits snugly in Somerset where the rain often comes down but the culture never dries up. The Victoria Art Gallery has been showing off new work for years, and there is usually a market stall nearby selling everything from pottery to pies. It is a proper place to spend an afternoon without needing to drive miles away. Even if the skies are grey, you can find plenty of local charm right here in town. Near Here keeps track of what is on so you do not have to ask your neighbours for updates. We make sure you know where to go before the rain starts really hammering down.

Al Steele & Friends - Let's Play the God Game

Al Steele & Friends most recent concept album is an irreverent tale of God's and Men. It has been described as the unholy offspring of Sister Act and The Matrix! Al has been one of the lead songwriters in The Korgis for the last 7 years, and responsible for all the videos and stage sets since then. This is the story of a computer programmer called Gordon the God. He creates the heavens and (notably) the Earth in seven days including a couple of misfits called Adam and Eve. The Gods then place bets on how it will all end up. However, all is not well in Gordon’s camp, as he has broken some rules, in particular the one about fraternising with humans. This comes to the attention of ‘GOD’, who incidentally is his ex, and holy hell ensues! As you would imagine this does not end well... or does it? This would-be Musical would disgrace the stage of any West End theatre! It stars Danielle Nicholls (Danielle Nicholls Band, The Korgis) as God - a first for the females(!), Lyndon Morgans (Songdog) as Adam, Elaine Gilmore (Simply Bacharach) as Eve, Lorna Darknell as Demeter, Paul Smith (The Korgis) as a Nephilim, and Al Steele (The Korgis, Shabbey Road Studios) as the upstart God, Gordon. This is a full band event so expect a crammed stage and various levels of outrageous behaviour.
