1) COVID TICKET NEWS – LEICESTER SQUARE THEATRE AND BEYOND

We are now in the same position as in March 2020, where there is a tension between advice to avoid places and events, and the fact that the gvt aren’t actually closing pubs and theatres.
I can’t reschedule the tour of SNOWFLAKE TORNADO a 4th time, as that would push it back to 2024 and there is no real support for any losses incurred by venues or to support all the freelancers involved in this undertaking, so I will be doing the dates wherever possible, and doing them enthusiastically.

I expect each venue will come up with their own advice, but here’s the official line for the next two weeks at Leicester Square Theatre 4th – 13th January

If you have Covid 19 and can provide evidence to the box office of positive PCR tests within 72 hours of the show you will be offered a refund.

If you are unable to attend due to Covid 19 related reasons the box office will attempt to resell your tickets but they cannot guarantee a refund until they are sold.

See https://www.leicestersquaretheatre.com/covid-update/

These shows are SOLD OUT but you can join a queue for returned tickets – choose
date and click through to join waiting list here

On a related note, unless the venue’s foyer is especially open plan and airy, I won’t be selling stuff and taking questions after the shows as usual as I expect they will want to keep the human traffic flowing.

I very much look forward to feedback every night and am very sad about this, and also pretending that I am essentially in retail stops me stressing about the shows. I look forward to the familiar faces and their families and will miss seeing everyone.
Plus, I have just had a load of fucking hats made.

7) MY CULTURAL YEAR 2021

Here is all the culture I consumed in 2021 in order.
The * system is not especially thorough, in the way it would be if I were writing reviews, and is just how I felt at the moment I noted down the name of the culture I had consumed, so please don’t e me asking for clarification. But for the record…

The best new film I saw in 2021 was Henry Blake’s County Lines; the best new comic/book was Joe Sacco’s Paying The Land (from 2020 admittedly), a typically even handed Sacco docu-comic, which this time helps us understand the growing global call for indigenous people’s rights and reparations, and is beautifully written and drawn; the best TV was Peter Jackson’s Beatles epic Get Back, which changed the way I feel about the group but was also just an incredible overview, almost in real time, of ideas taking shape and relationships changing and coalescing; the best bit of theatre – from a covid-depleted range – was the staged version of Dylan Thomas’ Under Milk Wood at the NT, but the best single moment of theatre I saw was the 12 Days Of Christmas routine in the Hackney Empire Pantomime, which felt timelessly brilliant; I saw loads of great live music this year, surprisingly, stand-outs being a revivified Hawkwind’s mind-blowing krautrock blowout at the London Palladium and Eliza Carthy’s last minute unaccompanied solo set upstairs at the Fountain Inn during the Laugharne festival, which was a privilege to behold; the year’s stand-out album for me was English Primitive by David Lance Callahan, where the Wolfhounds’ frontman gave his usually acerbic social commentaries a kind of visionary mythic quality, weaving them into extended cyclical mantras of folk-blues guitar to create a magic realist state of the nation musical address; loads of great archive releases this year too, the one that surprised me the most being a crystal clear recording of The Fall in imperious mode live at St Helen’s Tech in 1981; the best comedy I saw was Johnny And The Baptists at Soho theatre and they are quite simply one of the funniest acts you will ever see, and yet, despite being committed socialists, they are never on TV even though it is controlled by the ‘commissars of woke’, so maybe the BBC needs to set up some kind of genuinely left-leaning comedy show to correct the balance; it was great to see the overlooked Fitzrovian writer and painter Nina Hamnett’s work collected and displayed at the bohemian hangout Charleston Farm; pleasingly I thought my actual wife Bridget Christie’s Mortal was the best bit of radio I heard in 2021; the best food I ate this year, and perhaps ever, was an ordered off-menu Lamb Phaal from the Railway Tandoori in Newnham in the Forest of Dean – it seems like a dream when I remember it now… an astounding near-psychedelic experience that I hope I can repeat one day and would recommend to all seekers of culinary transcendence.
