SUMMARY:Special Event: Charles Dickens\, Conjuror
DESCRIPTION:A Special Event!\nAs a timely follow on to Julie’s Dickens Walk\, we’ve managed to secure the services of author\, magician\, and Dickens expert Ian Keable to present his show: \nCharles Dickens\, Conjuror: Playbill of his Most Famous Show\n \n\nCharles Dickens was an amateur conjurer for around seven years of his life\, from the time he wrote A Christmas Carol to David Copperfield.  His best known performance was on the Isle of Wight in 1849; he wrote a highly amusing\, and informative playbill to promote this show.  This playbill\, where Dickens called himself the ‘Unparalleled Necromancer’\, provides the focus to talk about how Dickens was inspired to take up magic\, which other conjurers influenced him\, whether he was any good as a conjurer and how he depicted\, and wrote about\, magic in his own books\, articles and letters.  The talk includes a description of some of Dickens’ tricks from his own repertoire\, plus some performances by Ian.  Any questions are allowed – apart from ‘how do you do it!?’ \n\nCheck Ian’s website for more details\, including video of his TV appearances. \nThis show comes highly recommended so it is bound to be popular. Please arrive in good time for an 8.30 start.

SUMMARY:Down the Canal\, with Barry and Gill Goodman
DESCRIPTION:Astonishingly\, it’s nearly three years since Barry and Gill entertained us with their Traditional Treasures\, an evening of revelations and songs about the oddities of English life. \nNow they’re back with their new presentation\, Down the Canal\, the story of Britain’s canals in words\, pictures and song. As they describe it: \nA look into the history of Britain’s canals – the builders\, the life of the working community\, the decline of the working boats and the revival of the waterways in recent times\, illustrated with photographs\, archive pictures and songs (with which you are very welcome to join in!). \nIf I’m not mistaken\, this picture on Barry’s website was taken at our Hall!\n  \nBarry describes himself as a singer\, musician\, songwriter\, caller and folk arts educator. Lots more information is available at his website: http://www.barrygoodmanfolk.co.uk/

SUMMARY:Midsummer Soirée? Tertulia? Picnic? Be there!
DESCRIPTION:Full Details Now Available Here\nThe belated appearance of the sun has brought out Andrew’s Mediterranean streak! This week he will host a ‘bring and share’ event\, aiming for the relaxed and sophisticated atmosphere of an Ibiza beach bar at sunset. \nThe Hall on Tuesday Evening (artist’s impression!)\n  \nThis will follow\, of course\, the COPSE diy tradition\, and contributions are invited from all. \nFirst\, what will be laid on?\n\nThere’ll be sangría\, made to an ancient Brogan family recipe\nOther drinks\, as may be found in the darkest recesses of our store room\nMusic and video to capture the imagination (I know\, it takes a lot of it to convert South Croydon to Ibiza\, but still . . .)\nBeach games are a possibility we’re exploring\n\nAnd what can we all do? (I hear you ask)\n\nBring picnic food to share\, especially with a Med tendency. (Feed a few\, mass catering not expected!)\nBring drinks\, hard or soft\, if sangría or store room pot luck isn’t your thing\nRaise the tone of the occasion by summer themed readings of your choice – prose\, poetry\, song or incoherent howl\, all are welcome\nIf possible\, dress for the occasion. The choice is yours\, though we may draw the line at mankinis.\nFor music\, we’ll make an Ibiza Beach Bar playlist. You may not want to leave this in my hands  – send your suggestions to Ken\, any time up to Tuesday evening\nAny spare flowers from your gardens or other legal sources would be welcome to display in the hall – and take them home or otherwise donate them after\n\n  \nAnd\, averse as we all are to washing up\, bring your own eating and drinking equipment and take it away afterwards. \nAny questions? Ask Andrew or Ken. \n  \nCome along\, and enjoy – ¡buen provecho todos!\n\n(Early Warning\, superseded by full details above)\nAn evening of sophistication – elegant canapés\, daring cocktails and dazzling conversation among your fashionably-coiffed and designer-clad COPSE colleagues. \n \nOr possibly not. \nDetails soon.
