James Gourlay – singer-songwriter

James Gourlay

Back for another year, here’s what James has to say for himself!

Born and raised in Guildford, 22 years old and a Surrey Showcase ‘veteran’. My aim is to bring a lively musical performance that is different from everything else that you will see. I’ll be performing a range of covers whilst putting my own spin on the songs. If you’re into fast raps, good times and bang average melodies, I’m your man!

A chuckle-full adventure of a show this year at The Nomad Theatre! In the village of Ample Bottom, Jack and his friends and family live in fear of the Giant and his nasty crew. After a bit of a mix-up with some beans and the family cow, will Jack’s visit to the cloud land end in victory?

A very popular show locally, the pantomime at Nomads is often full to the brim with theatre-goers enjoying our festive treats. With excellent reviews for both Cinderella in 2015 and Dick Whittington & his cat in 2017, plus a NODA accolade for Drama recently awarded to A Christmas Carol following the production in December 2018, the Nomads team are very much looking forward to the challenges and potential for fun that Jack and the Beanstalk will bring this year!
