Family man Aiden Goatley takes us on a journey through his life, recounting his relationship with his father and how they bonded through films. A heart warming story about communication, “or lack of it,” ’10 Films With My Dad’ teaches us that our time together is precious, so why not sit back and enjoy a film together every once in a while? The show also features clips of Goatley’s own ‘remakes’ of his favourite movie scenes including ‘Jaws’, in which family dog and star of the show Kimble gives a fantastic interpretation of a fierce shark amongst the waves of Brighton’s seaside. ’10 Films With My Dad’ is a touching tale coupled with moments of good old family friendly humour.
Ryan’s Cellar Bar – Ryan’s Bar, 6 – 27 Aug, 8.45pm (9.45pm), free, fpp157.
