Katherine Ryan: Kathbum
Epsom Playhouse, Epsom
Thursday 21 January, 8pm

The daughter of a strict Irish father and Canadian ‘stage mom’, smart stand-up comedian and television personality Katherine Ryan was not a winner growing up. Try as she might to shed her questionable and sparkly nature, she’s not sure we can ever truly escape our childhood indoctrinations. Described as ‘the queen of confessional comedy’, Katherine won Chortle’s best club comic of 2015 award, is a regular at the Edinburgh Festival and has appeared on many television shows, including Have I Got News For You and Mock the Week. She is currently on a tour of the UK with her new show Kathbum which covers both her usual critiques of celebrity culture and more personal material. Katherine will also appear at G Live on Thursday 25 February.

Hampton Court Palace ice rink
Until Sunday 3 January

With the Palace commemorating its 500th anniversary this year, what better time to visit and partake in what is fast becoming a winter tradition: a turn on the Hampton Court Palace ice rink. Prices have been frozen (ha, ha) at last year’s levels and with the
rink affording spectacular views of the red brick Tudor front of King Henry VIII’s beautiful palace, what more of an excuse is needed? Why not book an evening session on the rink and see the Palace lit up after dark whilst skating under the stars with friends and family? Alternatively, make a day of it: explore the Palace apartments and galleries, visit the Ice Bar and Café and skate at a time which suits. We recommend booking early for this festive treat: off peak and peak tickets are available with special rates for families, students, pensioners and groups. To coin a phrase, get your skates on!
