SUMMARY:Rich Hall: Chin Music
DESCRIPTION:Chin Music’ has two meanings. One is idle talk. The other is a brushback throw in baseball or cricket to intimidate the batter. \nBoth describe Rich Hall’s comedy. Idle but intimidating. Sharp\, quick\, splenetic\, and sublimely improvisational. If you’ve never seen him\, you need to grab a seat because he never disappoints. Ever. \nRich has won critical acclaim across the globe by performing to sell-out audiences each year at the Edinburgh Fringe\, throughout sell-out UK tours and at comedy festivals worldwide. His grouchy\, deadpan style has established him as a master of absurdist irony and the king of rapid-fire wit. \nNotable TV appearances include regular appearances on QI\, Live At The Apollo\, Have I Got News For You\, and Never Mind The Buzzcocks. \nLearn more or book your tickets via the link below.

SUMMARY:An Audience with John Doyle
DESCRIPTION:Watermill Theatre is delighted to welcome award-winning director\, former Watermill Associate Director and friend – John Doyle – back to the theatre this summer. \nJohn developed his signature ‘actor-musician’ style whilst at the small but mighty theatre – with his notable 2004 production of Sweeney Todd\, later transferring to Broadway (and earning Doyle a Tony Award for Best Direction of a Musical). This success was followed by a similar actor-musician transfer of Sondheim’s Company\, in 2006\, which won the Tony Award for Best Revival of a Musical. Doyle’s tenure at the Watermill (which ended with his final production\, Merrily We Roll Along\, in 2008) redefined the Watermill’s identity. \nIn his 2025 memoir\, Opening Doors: Reimagining the American Musical\, John Doyle reflects on his 50-year journey in the theatre\, moving from a “hardscrabble youth” in the Scottish Highlands to his Tony Award-winning success on Broadway. The memoir details how his signature “actor-musician” style was born not just from artistic vision\, but from practical necessity. He describes the conditions at the Watermill Theatre and other regional venues where small budgets and tiny stages (often lacking orchestra pits) forced him to “think outside the box.” By integrating actors as storytellers who also play their own instruments\, he found a way to “shrink-wrap” large musicals while amplifying their emotional power. \nHead along for a thrilling conversation with John\, and the opportunity to hear more about his work and his latest book. John will also be signing books after the event\, and there will also be a small selection of books available to purchase on the day. \nThis is a fundraising event\, which means all profits will go towards the theatre’s ongoing fundraising.

SUMMARY:Small Fish - Graeme Coulam
DESCRIPTION:Coulam is a small fish in a big pond. But he’s evolving like the rest of humanity. Or is he? Just because Dawkins says something\, it doesn’t make it true. On the other hand\, you can’t trust religion either\, so what are you supposed to think. If there is a God\, how come Man Utd won so many trophies in the 1990s. If there isn’t a God\, how come so many atheists behave as if there is. And now that Curly Wurlies are shorter than they used to be\, and Trump is in the White House\, who cares anyway? Expect tangents\, cul-de-sacs and more U-turns than Starmer as Coulam navigates the BIG questions with his tiny goldfish mind. \nThis event is part of West Berks Comedy Festival\, taking place throughout July.
