Oh! Suburbia – Bob Karper at Lancashire Fringe Festival
Oh! Suburbia! is a one-man avant-garde theatrical review by multi-award winning Bob Karper, mixing film, songs, experimental dance and painfully true stories about unjust childhood punishments, playground heroism, meticulously planned escapes, tragedy and comedy, life and death and everything in between. You’ll love it! Come and see! Bob is not a dancer!
Where are the suburbs of our consciousness? What are the suburbs of ourselves? Multi-award winning raconteur/performance artist/musician Bob Karper has made a brand new, inidividually idiosyncratic show about growing up in the suburban American Midwest*.
When he was a boy, Bob’s world turned upside down. His buttoned-up anti-social plumber father joined the Palos Village Players amateur dramatics company, just as they were workshopping the 1970s phenomenon, Oh! Calcutta! According to Wikipedia: ‘The 1970s phenomenon, Oh! Calcutta! was an avant-garde theatrical revue filled with sketches on sex-related topics and featuring extended scenes of total nudity, both male and female.’ Nine-year-old Bob Jr’s** sheltered suburban life was never the same again…
Oh! Suburbia! presents funny, intriguing, surprising tales of life in our residential outlying districts in the form of an avant-garde theatrical revue, a one-man avant-garde theatrical review, mixing film, songs, experimental dance*** and live musical stories about unjust childhood punishments, playground heroism, meticulously planned escapes, tragedy and comedy, life and death and everything in between. You’ll love it. Come and see.
*In Palos Heights, a southwest suburb of Chicago. **Bob’s father is also called Bob. ***Bob is not a dancer.
Bob Karper is a performer, filmmaker and composer whose solo work features true stories mixed with film, song, projected images and a variety of instruments. Work he’s created has won the Herald Angel, Anti-Fest Best of the Best, Live Theatre New Writing and Empty Space Bursary Awards.
“Like Tom Waits soundtracking The Waltons, Karper is part performance artist, part one-man cabaret.” Neil Cooper, Glasgow Herald
“An unsentimental storyteller with an idiosyncratic and beguiling style” Maddy Costa, Guardian
“His musical talent is immense, his gift for expression impressive… Spare no effort, watch him work” John Lydon, FEST
“A profoundly interesting storyteller” Scotsman
“Karper is a Maestro” Mark Shenton, Stage

Lancashire Fringe Festival – the information you need
Press release
May 3, 2019
Performers announced for Lancashire Fringe Festival
Some of the UK’s most hard-hitting, controversial and funny shows are coming to Preston as part of Lancashire Fringe Festival.
Hugely respected names in contemporary performance will play alongside acclaimed poets and award-winning performers, giving the people of Lancashire a unique festival experience – and all the shows are free to attend.
Lancashire Fringe Festival, funded by the Arts Council, will see acclaimed performers like Kate Fox, Louise Orwin, Bob Karper, Joana Nastari, Louise Fazackerley, Lee Mark Jones, Ruth E Cockburn and Katie O’Brien perform across Preston between May 15 and May 24.
The festival aims to engage a wide range of audiences, particularly people who do not usually come and see live shows, and includes everything from comedy and poetry to shows covering complex social issues like addiction, sex work and fracking.
Poet Louise Fazackerley opens the festival at Vinyl Tap on Wednesday, May 15. She will be supported by three poets who she has been working with as part of the festival’s artists development programme.
Several newly-commissioned pieces of work by local artists have also been included in the line up, so regional talent gets a chance to perform to a wider audience. This includes Neil Procter’s Lancashire People’s Theatre who have paired 14 Lancashire-based writers with professional actors to deliver a series of monologues over two nights during the festival.
Preston Central Methodist Church hosts Katie O’Brien’s brilliant Catch 22 Years, which examines addiction in a unique and unexpected performance by the award-winning actress. That is followed by new work from writer Karen Featherstone who is performing I Surrender! for the first time.
The Harris Museum hosts four stunning pieces of theatre on Saturday, May 18, kicking off with Dan de le Motte’s comedy-lecture about the Royal Family and Daily Mail Online message boards, followed by the hotly anticipated Control Pant Symphony by Natalie Wardle and Goth Diary by Karina Azlanova. The night ends with the brilliant Oh! Suburbia! by Bob Karper.
Acclaimed writer and performer Louise Orwin brings her new show Oh Yes Oh No to The Continental on Sunday, May 19. This stunning piece of theatre – hailed as “bold, brave work” by The Guardian – looks at female sexuality, consent and power.
A fantastic double bill at The Ferret on Monday, May 20 sees new work by Lancashire’s Ruth E Cockburn alongside outrageous show A Rock N Roll Suicide by Lee Mark Jones.
Kate Fox brings her hugely successful touring show about strong Northern women Where There’s Much There’s Bras to the Harris Museum on Wednesday, May 22. Also on the same bill that night is Blackpool-based Jo Catlow Morris’ play Nanners With Banners, about the Preston New Road’s anti-fracking nannas.
Poet Benjamin Guilfoyle stops off in the city on Thursday, May 23 at Vinyl Tap to perform. His performance is part of a 12-day walking tour between Lancaster and Brighouse.
And the festival ends in style with hard-hitting show about about strip club workers called F*ck You Pay Me by Joana Nastari. This show is at UCLan’s Media Factory, and is a collaboration with of Derelict Mayhem, a two-day contemporary performance festival of new work.
Lancashire Fringe Festival, created by local producer Garry Cook, is using a Pay What You Decide model, where audiences making an optional donation at the end of each show. Some shows cost over £20 per ticket when performed at other venues across the country.
Preston-based Cook has already put on several one-off shows in the city this year, including pulling off a major coup for the city by persuading poet Hollie McNish to come to the Harris Museum for a sell-out gig in March.
Cook said: “The one-off shows I’ve been doing for the past year have gone down brilliantly with Preston audiences – everyone has loved them. And it’s the audiences who have turned up to these shows – some people come to every performance – who have helped make this festival possible. I can’t thank them enough.
“There are some absolutely stunning shows in the festival. It has taken a lot of work to get some of them here but I’m delighted with the line up, and hope the people if Preston and Lancashire will come and help make this festival a huge success so that we can carry on doing it for years to come.
“I want to encourage people who do not usually see this kind of performance to come to one or two shows and experience something remarkable. All these shows have been chosen not just because of their subject matter but because they deliver a message in a hugely engaging, entertaining and exciting way.
“Even if you think a show covers a topic that doesn’t interest you, you will be blown away by the visual storytelling techniques these artists use. There are some exceptional talents coming to Preston over these 10 days – it’s a wonderful opportunity for Lancashire people to see shows which usually only come to London or Edinburgh Fringe.
He added: “If you turn up, you will experience something that will stay with them for the rest of your life.”
Lancashire Fringe Festival takes place between May 15 and May 24 in various venues across the city. Find out more at enjoyshow.co.uk

Why you need to go to an event
I’m writing this from the perspective as a fan of the arts. By arts I mean exhibitions, performances and theatre, but not the theatre of big shows and musicals – they leave me feeling a bit empty inside.
This short article is about events – and how important it is to go to them. And when I use the word ‘events’, I mean art and photography exhibitions, live-art performances, contemporary theatre, stand-up comedy, processions and festivals. And I also mean kids play groups, bonfire nights, Christmas festivals, street theatre days or anything you can take your family to, except those god-damn awful fun days in pub car parks where parents get slowly p*ss*d and subconsciously show their kids that alcohol is an acceptable form of addiction.
Why am I writing this? And why do I feel the need to say this?
Most of our lives shuttle along at 100mph without any time to stop and think. If you’re a parent that speed will regularly hit 120mph, or until you’re engine overheats and you have a nervous breakdown (this is similar to doing a phd but you don’t get a job with a university once you’ve recovered). What this means in real terms is that we all have our daily and weekly structures in terms of the things we do, the things we have to do and the things we enjoy doing. And often this does not include going to events like the theatre (adult or children’s) or similar events. For some people, a free festival in a nearby town or a weird little performance in the back of a pub is just not on the radar.
I know this because that was me. I went a dozen years without seeing any type of theatre performance, save for the occasional panto with my kids. Live-art performance festivals, fringe festivals, comedy festivals – it’s not that they weren’t on my radar, I didn’t even know they existed. I was doing other stuff. Like watching television. And drinking.
But here’s the thing. Live events, like those described above, offer something to us as humans mentally that we don’t quite understand. Academics sometimes refer to the effect of art and culture on people as wellbeing. But that does not do justice to the experiences involved.
The best way I can describe it, which most people get, is comparing watching a football match on TV compared to being at an actual stadium. At Old Trafford or Anfield or Holker Street, Barrow (delete as appropriate), there is the extra, intangible ingredient of atmosphere and sense of thrill that can only be experienced in a crowd, as part of a crowd. It’s this feeling that comes from watching events in person that I am talking about.
And it’s this feeling – along with other invisible benefits like nourishment for the soul, mental stimulation, feeling good – which makes going to events of any type hugely important to our wellbeing.
If we’re talking about theatre, there’s two main obstacles here (I could actually come up with six but it gets too complicated talking about social issues and the inaccessibility of some subject matters to a non-traditional theatre audience). The two obstacles are: people thinking theatre is too posh for them; and people (who do go out a lot) preferring to spend their time binge drinking. I can accept that drinking is an experience – and quite a fun one – but when you sit there scratching your blotchy red alcohol-soaked skin, looking back over those nights on the lash stretched across three decades, all those memories merge blur into one. It’s the extraordinary nights which stand out.
And extraordinary nights usually mean seeing Maxine Peake at the Royal Exchange, experiencing the anarchy of spoof magic show Peter and Bambi Heaven at Edinburgh Fringe, learning about social protests at a Mark Thomas gig or spending two hours laughing at Daniel Kitson (he’s the best stand-up comedian in Britain by a mile but does go on the telly so you might not have heard of him. I’d recommend you get seek him out, get on his mailing list and see him live).
But live experience does not end there. There’s also a myriad of processions, dances and performances at festivals up and down the country which can trigger feelings of joy some of you reading this did not even know existed.
The effect of art and culture on the mind is immeasurable. And believe me, I’ve read some reports which have tried to measure it. It’s immeasurable because you can’t measure how someone feels. But what you can do is ask people about their experiences and question your own – and the answer is always the same: art and culture makes us feel good. And that’s why experiencing stuff like this so crucial, especially to those of us a bit worn down by life. The effect could be as quick as the flick of a lightbulb, or it could be a more gentle, slower provocation of thought and feeling. But it will always be good and always be worth it.
There is actually of lot of theatre and performance out there – and a huge amount of it is totally free (both indoor and outdoor events). I’ve seen my fair share of weird sh*t – and you could too. So do yourself a favour, give yourself some memories. Go and see some theatre, or enjoy some live art where, for example, a naked man cellotapes his cock up his backside. Yes, you too could have memories like mine.
There will be some amazing experiences at Lancashire Fringe Festival in Preston, between May 15 and 24. Some of the shows, in my opinion, are by the absolute best performers currently working in Britain today. Can’t quite believe they will be in Preston. And you know what? I’ve organised it all so that it is free to attend. This is your wake-up call – it’s time for you to make some changes in your life.

I Surrender! by Karen Featherstone comes to Lancashire Fringe Festival
Karen Featherstone will debut her play I Surrender! in Preston as part of the new development commissions for Lancashire Fringe Festival.
I Surrender! is a show about vulnerability, how good her dad was at swearing in Welsh and what happened on the worst day of her life.
Karen Featherstone has written plots for Coronation Street and Emmerdale, while her words have been heard at theatres including Manchester Royal Exchange, Liverpool Everyman, Hampstead Theatre, National Theatre Studio and on Channel 4. She was part of Graeae Theatre’s Write-to-Play programme.
Her previous work includes comedy Careless Sponsored Walks Cost Lives, about an SAS-style elite parent-teacher association, which premiered at London’s National Theatre Studio and in 2015.
BBC Radio Lancashire has broadcast her work in the Laugh Out Loud. She’s won a Northern Writers’ Award for her painful, comic description of a sexless marriage while Jimmy McGovern once wrote her a letter saying her writing was ‘evidence of genuine talent’.
I Surrender! is Karen’s first performance of this intensely personal show. It’s about discovering a new vulnerability since becoming disabled, her dad’s proficiency at swearing in Welsh and how, without meaning to, he was responsible for the worst day of her life.
Reviews:
“Karen Featherstone – definitely a writer to watch out for… Careless Sponsored Walks Cost Lives is a razor-sharp comedy about parents being strong-armed into joining elite parent-teacher groups at the school gates… had everybody laughing out loud.” Female Arts website
“Clever, jocular and painful…” Alison Moore, author.
See I Surrender! by Karen Featherstone at Preston Central Methodist Church, Lune St, Preston PR1 2NL 7.30pm on Friday, May 17.

Brilliant show Fuck You Pay Me is coming to Preston as part of Lancashire Fringe Festival. DO NOT miss this show.
Fuck You Pay Me is the debut play by award-winning artist Joana Nastari.
It was developed with support of Soho Theatre Young Company, Lyric Hammersmith, Rich Mix and development residencies at Wiltons Music Hall and with, Brainchild (AIM Festival Award 2015 and 2016).

About FYPM
More often than not, strippers are portrayed in the media as voiceless bodies, statistics or through cheap stereotypes.
Fuck You Pay Me is a no-holds-barred, explosive trip through the world of stripclub culture, telling a story often left out of public conversations surrounding sex work.
As Bea navigates the politics of the strip club, she explores stigma, shame and sisterhood, and discovers a little more about herself.
Writer and performer Joana Nastari says: “Even within social groups, there is still no topic that divides people like sex work does. I think this is because there’s so much to unpick in our cultural and social relationships to both sex and work. People either want to hear a scandalous tell-all about ‘happy hookers’ or a tragedy-porn sob story.
“I want my show to transcend these binary preconceptions about sex work and keep the audience on their toes.”
Joana Nastari is a Brazilian-British actor, poet, writer and organizer of events for the queer, Latin and sex worker communities. Joana is currently Associate Artist at Oval House Theatre.
She makes cross-form work about sex work, psychedelic drugs and matriarchal Brazilian families.
Joana has worked with, Sean Holmes, Steve Marmion, Simon Stephens, Roy Alexander Weise, Stef O’ Driscol, at The Pleasance, Lyric Hammersmith, Soho Theatre and the The Yard.
See Fuck You pay Me by Joana Nastari at Media Factory, University of Central Lancashire, at 8.15pm on Friday, May 24.

Wandering Poet Tour part of Lancashire Fringe Festival
The Woolly Hat Poet will be part of Lancashire Fringe Festival as he stops off on his own 12-date tour to perform in Preston.
Lancaster-based Benjamin Guilfoyle is walking 125 miles taking in 12 venues as part of his wandering Poet tour between Lancaster and Brighouse.
He will be joined on stage at Vinyl Tap, Preston by Lyndsay Price, Flora Martyr, Rikin Parekh and Lorna Smithers. The show starts at 7pm on Thursday, May 23.
And there will be a special appeal by Benjamin on the night – when he asks someone in the audience to put him up for the night.
But audiences on the 12-date tour are in for a shock – because he will make an on-stage appeal every performance for one of them to give him a bed for the night.
Benjamin is raising money for two charities – the Lancaster and District Homeless Action Service and the Lancaster Children’s Library – with every penny from ticket sales and donations while on the tour donated to the charities.
And to raise awareness of the issue of homelessness, the poet will have nowhere to stay each night of his tour – that’s why he will be asking you for a bed for the night.
Benjamin said: “The Wandering Poet tour is all about being kind and doing something for others to make their day a little bit brighter. I want to be able to use my poetry and this tour to make a difference, however small, and to support these two local charities because without support they might not be around that much longer.
“My poetry comes from a place of happiness. I use my poems to tell stories and to focus on the smaller things in life that we might overlook and those small victories that get us through our everyday lives.
“I hope I will make my audiences laugh and there will be at least one poem in the show that they can relate to on a personal level.”
The performance poet – know as The Woolly Hat Poet – heads out on the road in May for a gruelling 12-date tour, taking in Lancaster, Garstang, Preston, Wigan, Bolton, Prestwich, Salford, Oldham, Littleborough, Hebden Bridge, Halifax and finally his home-town of Brighouse on consecutive nights.
The Wandering Poet Tour is inspired by Yorkshire’s own Simon Armitage and his Coast to Coast walk in 2015.
Each show Benjamin will be joined by local poetic talent, musicians and artists to give each show a local voice.
