Fitzrovia_radio_earsham

The critically acclaimed and sell out show The Fitzrovia Radio Hour is coming to Earsham Village Hall on Sunday 24th November 2013, at 2pm, with support from the arts and community development charity Creative Arts East.

Recreating the unique spirit of 1940’s radio plays and brilliantly evoking a dinner-jacketed age of casual imperialism and stiff upper lips, The Fitzrovia Radio Hour is performed with cut-glass theatricality blending homage and satire.

Throughout the radio plays, sound effects are created live: a Bakelite hairdryer imitates a heating torch, a desk fan becomes an aeroplane, and multiple types of cabbage help to stage a fight scene. Rippingly good fun!

Reviews of The Fitzrovia Radio Hour includes:

Absolutely spiffing teatime show that recreates the innocent, clipped, Bulldog Drummond spirit of Forties live radio drama… ripping yarns. – Daily Telegraph ****

Huzzah for the Empire’s finest! Vowels are as neatly clipped as the gentlemen’s moustaches, upper lips as stiff as their shirt collars, and emotions are kept as concealed as a woman’s knee. – Mail On Sunday ****

You can see The Fitzrovia Radio Hour at Earsham Village Hall on Saturday 24th November at 2pm. This event is organised in partnership with Creative Arts East with funding from Norfolk County Council,

South Norfolk District Council and the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation.
