WIND IN THE WILLOWS – GAOS @ Théâtre de Marens
Nov 6 – Dec 19 all-day
WIND IN THE WILLOWS – GAOS @ Théâtre de Marens

GAOS is proud to present it’s Christmas Show; “The Wind in the Willows” by Kenneth Graham. One of the best-loved works of children’s fiction which follows the adventures of Mole, Rat, Badger, Toad, and their friends. Follow the animals on this comical modern-day production, scripted by Alan Bennet, where their adventures and misadventures populate the entire story. From an idyllic riverside picnic to a snowy encounter in the Wild Woods, and from poop-pooping in Toad’s shiny new motor car to escaping jail! But watch out for the weasels who plot to take down the protagonists and take over Toad Hall. Will they succeed or does good overcome evil?

Save the date! We would love you & your family to join us.

On Fri 6th, Sat 7th, Sun 8th Dec, or Fri 13th, Sat 14th, Sun 15 Dec at the Theatre de Marens, Nyon.

Tickets from 25 CHF!

Ticket sales open Saturday 2nd November through: TheatreinEnglish.ch and GAOS.ch

FAST. FUNNY. MADE UP - Improvised Comedy @ Mr Pickwick's Pub

Fast. Funny. Made up. The improv comedy show for those who love to laugh!

Feeling blue as the winter holidays end? Find yourself forlorn as you take down the decorations? Catch yourself staring at the calendar and thinking, with rising panic ‘Wow. 2020. A new year. A new decade.’?

We’ve got your back.

Grab a friend and start the year off right with Geneva’s premier Renegade Saints improv: the faces are familiar, the scenes are fresh.
As always:
– Tickets go on sale from 19h00 just outside of the room
– Doors open at 19h30
– Show starts at 20h00
– Tickets are 10CHF at the door (cash only)

The Renegade Saints are a well-oiled improv comedy machine. Blending a range of backgrounds in a typically Genevan international community style, the Renegade Saints have been bringing their patented wit and side-splittingly hilarious fast-paced improv style to this glamorous basement stage since 2013.

You can catch them monthly at the Mr. Pickwick Pub (normally the 2nd Thurs of each month), at festivals, and book them for private shows, workshops for your organization. They also run improv classes.
