Dear friends,
Due to some major works being scheduled this summer we have a shortened this Spring/Summer programme which means there are only four events left before the break! However, we still have some great entertainment for you.
Not to be missed is Quiet Genius with Ian Herbert, biographer for Bob Paisley. An interesting talk on the form of management adopted by the supremely successful Liverpool player and manager. Tickets just £7.50 for this unique event.
Bollington Festival Choir still have tickets left for next month's Shakespearian Shenanigans, an uplifting choral event celebrating 401st anniversary of The Bard's death whilst Bollington Beer Festival is almost sold out so you probably have micro-seconds to obtain tickets for that!
Finally, in July we see the welcome return of Sarah Doggett and Ben Beer. Sarah and Ben played for us as part of the East Cheshire Hospice concert event last year and are back with their own show.
Whilst you have been enjoying this seasons offerings the Programming Team have been busy working on our Autumn/Winter events which include; the final date of Eleanor Conway's 'Walk of Shame National Tour', the welcome return of children's singer/songwriter David Gibb, a return also for the gorgeously talented Edwina Hayes and the brilliant Bollington Belles, the ever popular Mikron Theatre with their new production of 'Best Foot Forward' and finally Frankenstein 1899 - more on that soon!
We will of course have all our regular Comedy Nights, Jazz Bands, Chamber Concerts plus a great Soul night organised by members of a number of our regular class groups and the season will be topped-off by Bollington Festival Players supremely popular Panto. It's going to be a good one!
