Alistair McGowan comes to historic Ham House Stables

Following his sold out ‘3-in-1’ show at the 1901 Arts Club in January, we are delighted to announce that Alistair McGowan has agreed to give a repeat performance at historic Ham House Stables.

Monday 16 June at 7pm

Alistair McGowan : 3-in-1

Poetry, comedy and piano 

BAFTA-winning comic, actor and writer, Alistair brings you the comedy and impressions for which he is known and loved, plays short piano favourites by Chopin, Grieg, Elgar, Satie and others, and reads from his newly-published poetry collection.  Expect beautiful music, poignant poems and spot-on mimicry. It’s three great shows in one!

The stables were built in 1610 as the stable block for Ham House mansion. Join Alistair in this historic setting on the edge of beautiful Richmodn Park for a convivial evening of music and entertainment. Meet the performer afterwards and mingle with other music lovers.

Alistair McGowan : “Erik Satie : his words, his music, your ears”

Using Satie’s own surreally comedic writings and extracts from his letters as well as playing many of his best known short piano works, Alistair tells the story of Erik Satie’s bizarre, brave and lonely life. With vocal contributions from soprano, Charlotte Page. “A perfect Edinburgh show” (Stephanie Merritt, The Observer) 

Tickets will be on sale soon. If you haven’t yet discovered the 1901 Arts Club, an intimate salon-style small venue close to Waterloo station, now is the time to do so! (See our listings for other concerts at this exquisite gem of a venue).

‘Extraordinary originality, superb simplicity, and fingers of steel hidden behind muscles of velvet. He is an otherworldly young man – he plays with the genius one finds in those who know how to forget themselves, naturally placing themselves at the right point to meet the music, this mystery of the moment’ – LE MONDE, Paris

Praise for 7 Star Arts events:

“a truly uplifting evening- beautiful music!”

“such a friendly atmosphere…”

“Inspiring, inspired”

Viv McLean
