A message from Tony & Twizzle

Hi,
Anthony Chalmers and Isobel "Twizzle" Trilling here!
We just want to tell you about our new show, Tony and Twizzle, The Glory Years, which is coming to a theatre near you this autumn.
I'm sure you'll all be familiar with our cult TV series, Celebrity Wheelie Bins, the fourth series goes on air this autumn and I'm sure you all chant our catchphrase "What's up your passage?"
Well, the public has been begging us to come out on tour and do a little retrospective of our lives and loves in the theatre and film. We do extracts from some of our famous films and TV shows, including Some Vets do 'ave 'em, They've got a lot up top and cult gritty northern classic from the 1960's Wednesday Night and Thursday morning.
Plus Tony spills the beans about his time in rehab and the road to spiritual enlightenment. You, the audience have the chance to ask us some very personal questions during the show, or if you like, send us a blog and ask them here!
See you at a theatre soon!

  • Well, Oliver, I'm an old fashioned sort of girl, so I use lard, softened with a little olive oil, it certainly covers the cracks! Twiz

  • Twizzle, you look about 26 but a little bird tells me you are a few months older. How do you keep your skin so taut?

Funding situation

LipService are delighted to announce that the Arts Council England has revised its original decision regarding funding to the
award-winning theatre company.

LipService Theatre will receive one more year’s funding as a regularly funded organisation followed by a transitional period where the Arts Council will work with LipService to ensure the company’s survival.

The Arts Council had wanted to withdraw funding stating that LipService were so successful with venues and audiences that they felt the company could be commercially viable.

Sue Ryding stated ‘Obviously we are really disappointed that the decision has not been overturned in its entirety, but we are relieved that we have more time to pursue a new business plan and our programme of work for next year is secure’

ACE has acknowledged the huge support for LipService both within the industry, the local council and from the public, the strategic importance of LipService to the touring circuit and the high quality of the company’s work. Maggie and Sue are enormously grateful to all the people who took time and trouble to help with their campaign.

  • Heard the R4 programme on the arts council yesterday, couldn't believe that, in amongst all the other bizarre, destructive and perverse decisions Lip Service were due to lose their funding. Glad the situation seems to have been resolved. Saw all of the LS shows that came to the New Vic in Stoke, some of the best evenings in the theatre I've ever had. Good luck for the future and come back to stoke soon!!!
