HIC! or The Entire History of Wine (Abridged)

Saturday 27th March 2010
7.30pm

Performed by Julian Curry

A light-hearted history of wine and wine making, informative and entertaining, brought dramatically to life by a wealth of anecdote and quotation from wine lovers both real and fictitious.  How did wine begin?  Who put the bubbles in Champagne?  What do you do when a chap forgets to pass the port?  Wit and wisdom from the world of wine!  P.G. Wodehouse, Charles Dickens, Oscar Wilde, William Shakespeare, Dorothy Parker, George Meredith and more...

Performed by Julian Curry, better known as Claude Erskine-Brown in the popular TV series Rumpole of the Bailey and with wide-ranging stage and screen credits.

“HIC! is a hilarious and informed one-man play.  Laughing gear is a pre-requisite.” Wine Magazine
