The English Civil War and a Brighton council estate might seem like unlikely bedfellows for a new comedy play coming to Reading’s South Street next week, but they are, and they fuse together in a suprising way.
Victoria Melody is the star and creator of Trouble, Struggle, Bubble and Squeak, a comedic show directed by Mark Thomas. It blends storytelling with stand-up comedy, allowing the past and the present to collide and highlighting the importance of communities in our lives – both nearly 400 years ago and in the harsh reality of the 21st century.
Victoria Melody & Mark Thomas present Trouble, Struggle, Bubble and Squeak at South Street arts centre in Reading on Thursday, October 9 and Friday, October 10.
