Welcome to the ticket page for the spectacle that is, and for one night only, An Intimate Evening with ADAM ISAAC.
I’m guessing because you are already here then you know about Adam, one of the most talented singers in Henley-on-Thames and far beyond! If you don’t know of him, where have you been? Adam is a truly multi-talented artist. He is a musician, performer, entertainer, singer and songwriter and a master in almost every genre of music. From singing solo with nothing but his guitar and a microphone, performing amazing covers of well-known party tracks with one of his bands Bloc Off The Wall, to drum and bass mosh pit mash ups, Adam also finds time to produce his own music with his own band who will all be there to support both him and us on this wonderful evening.
Whilst Adam is all about his music, we want to delve into his personal life too. Adam is now 42 and originally from the beautiful county of Devon, where he shared a family home with his mum, dad and sister Katy. Growing up Adam was sure he was going to be a pro golfer until an injury thwarted that dream. Having had a keen ear for music and an obsession with song writing from an early age he started to focus more on his music.
Since leaving Devon for the busier, faster paced life, Adam has experienced some huge successes. Adam has appeared on the top tv talent show The Voice where he was fought over by Will.i.am and Tom Jones with them battling through name dropping to win his loyalty. Names such as Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley were thrown in to the mix!
Adam annually travels the Alps to perform at some of the most well know resorts and bars that skiing has to offer.
Despite the successes Adam is, like all of us, human. His journey behind the scenes has also seen him experience some troubling lows, from mental health issues to kidney failure. Which ironically brings us to the exciting part of the evening. Adam is, and always has been, an open book on his life, even during the toughest of times, with regular updates, videos and social media posts on all aspects of his life in the belief that his openness, honesty and raw accounts would help and even inspire others. Through these experiences Adam has now written an album of his own music which reflect on all of his experiences, from his move to Henley, how he coped with the his diagnosis, and life on the other side, which he has chosen to share with you. These songs, until now, have not been shared with any audience.
On this very special evening Adam will be opening himself up to you, the audience, by inviting you to ask him anything. All you have to do is purchase your ticket. You will be prompted to submit your question prior to the check out. We do need this in advance to ensure all of the questions that are chosen are suitable for a live audience. Should your question be chosen to feature on the night you will be asking your questions to Adam personally.
And if this wasn’t enough, we will also have local legend DJ Jamie Taylor poised to take your requests until 11pm. Jamie is a firm favourite on the Festival scene, most recently at Rewind South. Having worked with some of the biggest names on the circuit, Jamie is equally at home playing intimate club nights or on a large festival stage. Fresh from supporting Norman Jay and warming up for Basement Jaxx, Jamie is also the tour DJ for funk soul group Brother Strut. Miss it, miss out!
Your ticket also includes Burgers from one of our sponsors The Bottle and Glass Inn and a welcome drink.
OUR ONLY REQUEST IS THAT YOU DRESS TO IMPRESS - YOU CAN INTERPRET THAT AS YOU WISH!
As mentioned at the start, The Chiltern Centre provides care to young adults aged between 16 and 30 years of age. But it does so much more than just care giving. It empowers young people living with disabilities to have fun, make friends, learn grow and develop whilst providing their families with the break that they need to recharge and rest. Your ticket and any further donations on the evening could pay for outings such as our annual weekend at Butlins, essentials such as equipment and maintenance but most importantly our care staff, without whom this would not be possible. And if you need anymore convincing, please find below a few notes on what the families say about us and the service we provide.
Yvonne, Daniel’s mum.
“I honestly don’t know what I would have done if I hadn’t found the Chiltern Centre. I appreciate everyone who supports and donates because we really wouldn’t have much of a life without it.
Lorna, Rachel’s mum.
“Now she is 18 she is not a little girl anymore, she’s not a child and she needs to start making her own way a bit more. That’s why something like the Buddies club (social club run by the Centre) is so great because she can just do her own thing with other people and not just be with us all of the time. It’s a space for her, it’s nothing to do with me. It’s helping her to grow into a young adult”
Sidra, Waqas’s sister.
“Nothing is too much for the Chiltern Centre. They’re just amazing. They understand my brothers needs, they support him, they talk to him, they respect him. For Waqas, having people who respect him and respect his views is probably the most important thing”
If you would like to visit the Centre and see for yourself how special it is, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
Seating for the event will be theatre style in the barn on a first come first served basis. The front row will be reserved for wheelchair access.
