Clementine Bogg-Hargroves is returning to the Chiswick Playhouse stage to present her stand-up style one woman comedy-drama SKANK.

She had previously performed at the venue above the Tabard pub last autumn but is back for a short run from 8 - 10 February.

Nominated for the Times Critic's Choice comedy-drama and an OFFEST award, SKANK reflects the desires of 20-something's in 2022: a clean bill of health, the adoration of the public and some decent recycling facilities. Clementine Bogg-Hargroves stars as Kate, a young woman who is stuck - stuck in a job she doesn't understand or care about whilst, in her view, her untapped potential for becoming a Nobel prize-winning writer withers away.

Armed with a degree in Arabic and a stint at drama school, Clem wrote SKANK in 2019 and it was first performed on the top floor above a cafe in Yorkshire before a run of shows across London.

The performance begin at 7.30pm and tickets can be purchased here for £15.

Next month there will be an extended run of Elan Butler's 'A Little Rain In Monaco' which is being performed from 8 March - 2 April 2022 with tickets released this Sunday (6 February).

‘A Little Rain in Monaco’ is a contemporary LGBT+ play which discusses class, identity and mental health whilst putting a spotlight on the people stuck between success and desperation.

This site remains committed to providing local community news and public interest journalism.

Articles such as the one above are integral to what we do. We aim to feature as much as possible on local societies, charities based in the area, fundraising efforts by residents, community-based initiatives and even helping people find missing pets.

We’ve always done that and won’t be changing, in fact we’d like to do more.

However, the readership that these stories generates is often below that needed to cover the cost of producing them. Our financial resources are limited and the local media environment is intensely competitive so there is a constraint on what we can do.

We are therefore asking our readers to consider offering financial support to these efforts. Any money given will help support community and public interest news and the expansion of our coverage in this area.

A suggested monthly payment is £8 but we would be grateful for any amount for instance if you think this site offers the equivalent value of a subscription to a daily printed newspaper you may wish to consider £20 per month. If neither of these amounts is suitable for you then contact info@neighbournet.com and we can set up an alternative. All payments are made through a secure web site.

One-off donations are also appreciated. Choose The Amount You Wish To Contribute.

If you do support us in this way we’d be interested to hear what kind of articles you would like to see more of on the site – send your suggestions to the editor.

For businesses we offer the chance to be a corporate sponsor of community content on the site. For £30 plus VAT per month you will be the designated sponsor of at least one article a month with your logo appearing if supplied. If there is a specific community group or initiative you’d like to support we can make sure your sponsorship is featured on related content for a one off payment of £50 plus VAT.
