James Rowland's award winning, trilogy of sell out shows: Learning to Fly (★★★★★ The Guardian), Piece of Work (★★★★ The Morning Star), and James Rowland Dies at the End of the Show (★★★★★ Three Weeks) will be performed one after the other, at CPT this October. A gentle, warm, hurtle through the breadth of a human life juxtaposed with some of humanities greatest Art (James wants to be clear that's like Shakespeare, Beethoven or Beyonce, not him).
22nd October - Learning To Fly
Critically acclaimed storyteller James Rowland's is telling the tale of a friendship he made with the scary old lady who lived on his street and her last wish: to get high once before she dies. “Joyful” ★★★★★ The Guardian
23rd October - Piece of Work
James has been touring his theatre shows for half his adult life. This year was different though. He received a letter that exploded his life, and the tour became a search for the person who sent it, for home and to maybe save a life. ★★★★ The Morning Star
24th October - James Rowland Dies at the End of the Show
What would you do with an hour? What if it was your last hour ever? For James the answer is easy: he wants to tell you a story. A story full of laughter and music and joy. A story about living. ★★★★★ “'If you’ve never seen Fringe stalwart James Rowland, stop reading and immediately book tickets: you can thank me later” Three Weeks
"Our children live in the most deprived ward in London and their parents cannot afford to pay for the classes and activities many more privileged children enjoy after school and at the weekends. A free-to-access youth group run by a local theatre in a professional setting is an incredible opportunity."
