SUMMARY:Mathew Horne: In Conversation! *
DESCRIPTION:Tickets £23.50.Doors open 7.30pm\, starts 8pm.This is for a seated audience.  \nA Colchester Arts Centre Exclusive! \nWe’re talking all things Gavin & Stacey at this very special event with none other than its lead\, Mathew Horne! \nIt wasn’t long after audiences were first introduced to Gavin\, Stacey\, Smithy\, Pam\, Mick and Uncle Bryn that the show became the nation’s best loved series; with its endlessly quotable lines\, charming (and sometimes very surprising!) storylines and its lovable larger-than-life characters\, audiences were instantly beguiled by the critically lauded BBC sitcom. Through many twists and turns\, and countless moments of hilarity\, creators Ruth Jones and James Corden gave us three series of the show and two Christmas Day specials\, the latter of which – the series finale – was the best watched programme on British television on the day. \nFor the very first time since the show’s finale\, Mathew Horne is sitting down in front of a live audience\, in conversation about his Gavin & Stacey journey – from his favourite moments\, behind the scenes anecdotes as well the show’s impact on his own day-to-day life. We’ll also of course be touching on Mathew’s other work including his comedy work with Catherine Tate and his working relationship with James Corden. \nBook now to attend this very special event and avoid disappointment!
