Hauntings
Hauntings is a spellbinding evening of three tales of the supernatural during which the award-winning actor, Gerard Logan, will take you to world of invisible, but terrifyingly present, spirits.
Gerard Logan's masterful storytelling of two of the world’s greatest writers of ghost stories, E.F. Benson and M.R. James guarantees a spinetingling evening not to be missed.
From E.F. BENSON comes:
Naboth’s Vineyard - in which just desserts are meted out to an unscrupulous lawyer.
The Hanging of Alfred Wadham - in which the forces of the devil test a man of faith to his limits.
From the acknowledged master of the ghost story genre, M.R. JAMES, comes:
Oh, Whistle and I’ll Come to You, My Lad - in which a medieval spirit strikes terrorizes an arrogant professor.
'Logan is astounding....He takes a strong script and flies it to the stars' ★★★★★ Edinburgh Festival 2016 Review
'Watching Logan work is like being privy to a wonder of nature and remains with you ... A true masterpiece of solo performance' ★★★★★ The Edinburgh Guide
Hauntings is also underscored by a beautiful, original and specially commissioned score by the award-winning RSC composer, Simon Slater.

Elton John by Stuart Epps
Stuart first met Sir Elton John in 1967 where he was the office boy at the Beatles music publisher Dick James.
This was the same year that Elton Met his lyricist Bernie Taupin. Elton was employed as a staff songwriter. Stuart was immediately impressed with Elton's talent. He started working as assistant for Elton's co-ordinator and Head of DJM records Steve Brown.
This involved everything to do with Elton's career including booking studios, musicians and promoting his early records to the BBC. In the Late 60s and early 70s he toured the states with Elton and his band as his personal assistant.
Whilst touring with Kiki Dee and Elton in 1974, Stuart was at the amazing New York Madison Square concert when John Lennon performed his last gig with Elton. He then went on to work at Elton's producer Gus Dugeoens Studio The Mill in Cookham. Here he worked again with Elton recording Hits including Song For Guy and Nikita.
Stuarts talk at Norden Farm also includes his work with other artists including Led Zeppelin, George Harrison, Chris Rea, Robbie Williams and Oasis.
