- 24-27 January. Watch out for the publicity for Crude Apache Theatre Co. and Punch House Band’s latest exciting theatrical and musical extravaganza at the historic Maddermarket Theatre, Norwich. This is the première of an original adaptation of the 1960 Ewan MacColl / Peggy Seeger / Charles Parker BBC radio ballad Singing the Fishing. Features full musical accompaniment by a specially augmented Punch House Band—ooh—which also includes new songs by PHB leader Tim Lane.
