'Caught Short and Grumpy'

With spring fast approaching we have something to get you in the mood for the cricket season!

We are pleased to announce that Henry Blofeld returns to Grove Theatre on Friday 5^th March at 7.30pm, and this time he's Caught Short and Grumpy!

Whenever Blowers is at the microphone, laughter is never far away. He has an irreverent approach to life, often gets his knickers in a twist and everything he says, in the commentary box or on the stage, is often tinged with more than a humorous touch of wickedness. His new show combines all these attributes as he pokes fun at every aspect of his life, mocks pomposity and pretentiousness and there is no one he laughs more at than himself. In fact, Blowers spends a good deal of the time with egg all over his face.

This show will include lots about cricket, plus broadcasting, writing, food, wine and much more. Blowers is a self-confessed outrageously stuffy old fart who cannot stand much that goes on in life today. When it comes to things like Political Correctness, good old 'Elf and Safety, the European Union and all those beloved unelected whatnots in Brussels that try and rules our lives, he becomes, if not apoplectic, at least singularly grumpy. When it comes to such things, no holds barred, Blowers gives it everything in a good mix of humor, common sense and ridiculousness. He descends like several tons of bricks where he has to. He is constantly flexing his muscles in these directions throughout the show. He is one of the world's great eccentrics and should be bottled!
