We’re a Ramblers group aimed mainly at people in their 20s, 30s and a bit beyond, offering guided hikes and social events across Herts, Beds and south Cambs.
Join Stag Walkers for a Saturday night theatre social watching Trouble, Struggle, Bubble and Squeak, a mix of historical re-enactment, stand-up and storytelling, created by Victoria Melody, described as “the Louis Theroux of theatre.”
Directed by comedy legend Mark Thomas, this hour-long show is packed with heart, humour, and hijinks – perfect for lovers of theatre that makes you laugh, think, and maybe even take to the streets!
Trouble, Struggle, Bubble and Squeak offers a bold, funny, and heartfelt celebration of communities and the ordinary people who shape history. When Victoria Melody joined a historical re-enactment society, she uncovered the story of the 17th-century Diggers, who occupied common land. This investigation into their modern-day equivalents - community organisers and campaigners - uses storytelling and stand-up to explore land, power and working-class resistance.
A four-star Guardian review called the show “a joyful testament to people power, a heartening parable about the possibility of collective action.”
