Rob Beckett
GiraffeComedian, presenter and panel-show superstar announces new tour Giraffe for 2025. Smashing the life out of the M25, M1, M5 and any other road that’s in my way. From Bromley to Brisbane, my new show Giraffe is going worldwide. Expectations on me: put on 3 stone from takeaways and post-show drinking. Expectations of you: leave the gig happier than when you arrived. My wife thinks it’s going to be tough for me to be away from the family, and don’t get me wrong, I do love my children/podcast content providers… but I also enjoy a lie-in and a hotel buffet breakfast. I think I’ll cope. What else is there to do? Sit next to your partner on the sofa, scrolling TikTok in silence again? You did that the last three nights. See you there! Host of Sky’s Rob Beckett’s Smart TV and Rob & Romesh Vs. He’s also the unmistakable voice of Channel 4’s Celebs Go Dating and the smash-hit podcast Parenting Hell. “Hilarious” – The Mirror “Naturally funny” – The Times “Hilariously observational comic… brings roars of laughter” – Arts Desk bohmpresents.com

Kundalini Yoga Class - All Levels, Every Monday
Using movement, mantra, meditation, and breathwork, Kundalini yoga helps shift energy, invigorates the body, and allows you to release anything that is no longer serving you. Expect to leave feeling brighter, energised, and ready for the week ahead. With 8,000 sets, no class is the same, and a lot of the exercises are held for only for a few minutes at a time. Kundalini is great for overactive minds, ADHD, and anyone who thinks that yoga or meditation is not for them. Give Kundalini a try! The first class cost is $11, then it's $16.50 per class after that. Cash payable on door. Bring a yoga mat or towel and water, plus any cushions/bolsters if you need them as we're on hardwood floors. Parking is available to the right of the community centre. Please note the class is in the Activity Room, to the right as you walk in. Chairs are available if you'd prefer to be off the floor.

Lawrence Mooney: Dead Set Country
Lawrence Mooney: Dead Set CountryMooney’s gone country. Deep country. Dead Set Country. He likes the word country because it’s got a rude word in it if you EMPHasise it properly. Dead Set Country is Lawrence’s brand new hit show that’s all about a city boy gone bush. Roughed up by locals, mourning dead wombats, talking with horses and having an abiding affair with a tractor - in short Mooney is Dead Set Country. Following on from the acclaim for his past three shows Beauty, Embracing Your Limitations and Pigeonhole he’s back with Dead Set Country. This time he’s covered in dust, speaking slower and line dancing. It’s Clarkson’s Farm meets Lawrence Mooney’s head on collision with country Australia. “You’re not from round here are ya mister?” Lawrence Mooney is an acclaimed stand-up comedian who across a thirty-year career has been regarded by critics and fans as properly hilarious whether appearing as himself, one of his many characters, live or on the tele. Lawrence has toured the country with his best mates in the hit show The Comedians and can be seen regularly on The Front Bar on Seven and The Back Page on Fox Sports. www.lawrencemooney.com... “Australia’s Greatest Comedian … a sheer comic genius!” Glam Adelaide ★★★★★ “A true master...Lawrence Mooney just continues to smash it” Scenestr “Mooney’s ability to transform ordinary rural life into laugh-out-loud brilliance” THE LIST UK
