STORYTELLING and song come together when Callum Patrick Hughes heads to The Gaggle of Geese in Buckland Newton this weekend.

Thirst is his hit show about love – love of pubs, love of community, love of family and a reminder that not everything you love is necessarily good for you.
The 27 Club is an informal list mostly of popular musicians, artists, actors and other celebrities who died at age 27, and in July 2018, two months before his 28th birthday, Callum nearly joined that list and was forced to discover who he is without looking through the bottom of a bottle.
The audience will join the acclaimed writer and performer for a riotous, warm and musical journey from a small Oxfordshire town, through Beijing’s Hutongs and the Scottish Highlands, to the bright lights of the ‘Big Smoke’.
Thirst is a love letter to sobriety and a celebration of all things alcoholic – exploring life, family, theatre, religion and the positivity of the pub and how creating a community under the roof of your nearest watering hole doesn’t have to involve alcohol.
Hughes is performing at The Gaggle of Geese on Sunday, March 5, with Artsreach, Dorset’s touring arts charity.
