Miles Jupp - On I Bang
Theatr Brycheiniog
Comedy | ComediSince Miles’ last tour finished at The London Palladium in 2017, he’s been in The Full Monty on Disney Plus, The Durrells and Why Didn’t They Ask Evans? on ITV, as well as a heap of episodes of Frankie Boyle’s New World Order and Have I Got News For You.
He’s made an award-winning radio series, he’s published a novel and he's played the Emperor of Austria and Europe in Ridley Scott's Napoleon.
Yet one sunny day in the middle of all this, he suddenly suffered a brain seizure. This led to the discovery of a tumour the size of a cherry tomato, and a rather pressing need to undergo major neurosurgery. Obviously, one doesn’t wish to make a big deal of it, but the experience has left him with a story to tell and a few things that he’d like to share with the room. So that’s exactly what he’s doing in his new show On I Bang – a tale about surprise, fear, luck, love and qualified medical practitioners.

Wynford Jones and Geoff Cripps
Theatr Brycheiniog
Live Music | Cerddoriaeth FywWynford Jones and Geoff Cripps’ towering presence on the folk circuit over four decades has been immense. Both founder members of much-loved 80s folk-rock pioneers The Chartists, Wynford and Geoff retain all their energy and verve. Wynford’s songs articulate, like few others can, the radical Welsh working-class experience…and the poignant memories of growing up in the Valleys. All are underpinned by the sensitive playing of multi-instrumentalist Geoff, a visionary campaigner for folk music whose work on the arts scene has nurtured new generations of performers. The duo’s current stage act has been given fresh impetus by the digital release of The Chartists’ long-unavailable masterwork Cause For Complaint. It is an album that left Wales’s pre-eminent modern songwriter Martyn Joseph awestruck. “I can’t recall a moment in my lifetime when we needed the siren call of protest more than now,” he said. “We need the spirit of these songs…to remind ourselves of who we truly are.”

In part, this is what caused his notorious breakdown, but it didn’t hold back his creativity as he created masterpiece after masterpiece.
