The Andy May Trio play high energy instrumental folk, inspired by the music of their native North East. A typical performance includes traditional tunes from Northumberland, newly-composed material by all members of the band and an introduction to the pipes, all delivered with a warmth and humour which is sure to draw in both folk afi cionados and newcomers alike for a dazzling show fi lled with virtuosity and energy.

Winstone Sat 12 Mar 2016 A wonderfully entertaining evening featuring a unique and enthralling band of four hugely successful multi-instrumentalists/singers, who have performed all over the world, from Sydney Opera House to The Edinburgh Festival. They draw on their English, Irish, Asian and Gallic heritage to present a sophisticated musical mélange of pop songs, Latin tunes, French chanson, gypsy jazz, folk and originals. With violin, cello, guitar, vocals and percussion.

Snow Child is a magical story about family, love and the power of dreams. The fi rst snow falls. Watching the village children play, a lonely couple yearn for a child of their own. They build a small fi gure from the ice and snow, and wish very, very hard … until the strength of their longing brings the magical snow child to life before their eyes! As the seasons turn, will the Snow Child and her parents fi nd their ‘happily ever after’?

Expect to hear music from all points of the globe, performed in that unique LPSO style!

Patricia Hammond, the ‘Canadian Nightingale’, has been performing the popular songs of the past since she was a little girl. Patricia strips the veneer from such favourites as ‘Keep the Home Fires Burning’ and ‘Pack up your Troubles’, restoring long-neglected verses to the wildly popular choruses and telling the stories behind the compositions. A truly beautiful and moving show.

How many times can one actor get killed during one performance? Find out in this brand new comedy based on the infamous tale of William Burke and William Hare. Three actors play all the parts and maybe, just maybe, are stretching the truth … quite a lot. In fact, Burke and Hare has a hysterical, rather than historical, basis. From the company that brought you The Hound of the Baskervilles, expect many murders, many men called William, and many more accents.

Open Sky bring to life two thousand year old stories using a happy mix of rhyme, movement, live music, song and puppetry. Monkey tries to wind up Buffalo. Pigeon saves Ant. Little Hare scares Deer, Ox, Tiger, and Elephant, until Lion steps in. And the Prince is indeed mighty, but is he mightier than the Giant? Based on stories for children told by the Buddha, each fable has a simple moral for young hearts and minds. An enchanting family show for ages 3 and above.

Laugh away those 21st century blues in the company of Flanders and Swann, here perfectly complemented by the words and wit of Sir John Betjeman. Featuring a cornucopia of songs, familiar and less familiar, the songs of Flanders and Swann are rooted in that vision of our recent past often called ‘Betjeman’s Britain’. Wallow in a little nostalgia for this by-gone world and the more gentle humour exemplifi ed by these arch-observers of the national character

Gloria Delaneuf is well-versed in mime, mask and the mysteries of stage-craft. Her UK tour manager, Josephine Cunningham, is not. Together they have created Gloriator – an awe-inspiring production of bravery, honour, and costumes made out of cardboard. Inventive, physical and very silly, Gloriator was created by the French/English female comedy duo Spitz & Co, and won the Critics’ Choice Award at Exeter Ignite.

The Churchfi tters is a folk band like no other. The four virtuoso musicians from England and France strut their stuff on a stage that bristles with instruments: fl ute, banjo, dulcimer, tin whistle, guitar, ukulele, stand up dustbin bass and a sackful of percussion. Throw in some exquisite harmonies, a slew of startlingly original songs and a few jokes that create instant rapport and you’ve got a high energy show that leaves audiences cheering for more.

The Baghdaddies play world music, specifi cally infl uenced by Balkan music, latin styles, calypso and ska with a British knees up sensibility that makes you question whether you are in Newcastle, Sarajevo or the Caribbean. They have played in Moscow, Madrid, Beijing and Barrow in Furness. They have played at Glastonbury Festival, and The Bell public house in Bath. They are amazing on stage and terribly good as wandering brass troubadours.
