Darker Tales & Fairy Stories for Grown Ups...
All good stories get better the later and darker it becomes.
Join storyteller Gav Cross and perhaps a late night ghost or two.
Certainly a twist on some old classics.
Almost certainly a smile.
Perhaps a nervous glimpse over the shoulder?
As we scratch our way into the darker routes of the stories we think we know.“Gav Cross treats children like they're horrible and adults like they're children and the results are hilarious and magical. Gav brings energy, joy and a refreshing approach to traditional storytelling, getting the audience involved and keeping them on their toes with the unexpected twists and turns of his tales.”
Larmer Tree FestivalThe audience were hooked by every word as they were led a merry dance through stories.”
Pound Arts“... just on the right side of darkly comic... ”

Mark Thomas: 40 In Stand Up Years

at Festival Drayton Centre
Market DraytonMark Thomas: 40 In Stand Up Years
19:30 - 22:00 5th September 2026
More InformationMark Thomas celebrates 40 years at the mic. In that time he has changed laws on tax, jailed arms dealers, kick started a comedy circuit in Palestine, given evidence before three Parliamentary select committees and has taken the police to court three times and won. The world’s moving far too fast to predict what the content will be but it is the normal stuff of government and personal mayhem, expect jokes, rants, politics, swearing, staring into apocalypse and possible nudity as he emerges from large cake singing happy birthday Mr President.*
*Cake correct at time of publication.
Join Mark as he tries to turn “what the f**k is going on” into a cogent hour of stand up.
