SUMMARY:Superfan - Alma Tavern Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Iris\, Molly\, Suzy and Dorothy are four thirteen girls who have formed an obsessive fan club around heartthrob movie star Paul Chamalordi. They’d rather spend their time running top fanpage @chamalordiupdates or bidding on a strand of his hair on Ebay than go talk to gross boys their age. \nWhen they win a fan competition to go to Los Angeles and meet their idol\, it seems like a miraculous bid for their dreams to come true. But ugly cracks come to the surface – in their idol\, in their relationship to one another and in the stories they have built around love\, admiration and girlhood. \nThe sharp comedy explores the obsessive nature of girlhood\, fandom culture and the painful experience of growing up.

SUMMARY:Starshore - Alma Tavern Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Marcus Sahir brings his brand new show\, Starshore\, to the Alma Tavern Theatre this summer. \nIt’s a one-man comedy drama\, written and performed by Sahir\, exploring themes around eating disorders and mortality. It focuses on recovery\, queer friendship and the forces of nature that can both destroy and heal us in turn. \nYears after forging friendship in an eating disorder ward\, Aadhi and Kara re-unite on a hiking trip to the sea\, determined to be new people and put the past behind them. Aadhi has never seen the ocean before. Kara sees it every summer\, and can’t wait to show him. \nBut old demons die hard\, and deep waters reflect ugly secrets. As the days go by\, the fears they’ve hoped to bury are brought to the surface\, and their bond is tested in ways neither could have imagined. \nCan starlight be kept? Or do we always fall back to darkness? \nBristol-based Sahir is known for his work locally\, including Today I fought A Tiger\, Cardboard Village\, The Courts and Morally Grey for Lightbox Theatre. \nThe show is produced by Marcus Hadley.

SUMMARY:Glove Fulla Vaseline - Alma Tavern Theatre Bristol
DESCRIPTION:Andrew Brooke brings his comedy show Glove Fulla Vaseline\, to the Alma Tavern Theatre this July. \nThe show is currently out on tour with all previous dates selling out. \nThe former teacher’s show is based upon his thirty years of teaching John Steinbeck Of Mice and Men to disengaged secondary school students. \nGlove Fulla Vaseline turns his experiences into a funny\, musical and painfully recognisable look at the realities of life in the classroom. \nAudiences can experience the triumphs and tribulations – and chaos – of teaching the GCSE text to so many reluctant GCSE students. \n

SUMMARY:Touched - Alma Tavern Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Pilots Thumb Theatre Company comes to the Alma Tavern Theatre this summer with their new production of Touched. \nThe Devon based theatre company are performing in Bristol for the first time as part of a new tour. \nTouched was originally written by Danny Strike inspired by a short play by Laura Quigley. It’s been adapted and rewritten by Beth Scott-Hewlett. \nBritain didn’t collapse overnight—it slowly came apart. Jobs disappeared\, trust eroded\, and people stopped looking each other in the eye. Then the Urban Regeneration Programme arrived. Not a revolution. Just a system that slipped quietly into people’s lives and called itself order. \nSome welcome it. Some fear it. Most are simply trying to survive it. \nIn a world designed to keep everyone apart\, they find something rare: connection. Not quite love or friendship. More like the quiet ache of being altered by another person. \nThe Programme claims it can fix society. But to fix something\, you often must strip it down—remove the messy\, human parts first: fear\, pain\, hope\, longing. The need for one another. And if we lose those things\, what’s left of us?
