Saturday, 15 March 2008 Stoke Golding Jubilee Fund Presented another superb evening of entertainment Swing into Spring with the big band sound of Brass, Wind & Fire
Stoke Golding Village Hall, All profits will go towards Village Hall refurbishments. Previously in the Village Hall... Old Rope String Band - Feb 2007 Hank Wangford - April 2006 Pavlo - November 2006 Daniel Smith Blues Band - Jan 2006
The New Rope String Band - February 10th 2007 Fiddles, mandolin, guitar, accordion & trumpet all featured in the recent brilliant performance by the New Rope String Band at the Village Hall. The fact that there was an accordion player in a string band paled into insignificance, as the show developed, with the addition of plastic pipes, beer bottles and even flippers! Traditional music, expertly performed throughout the show, played an equal part to facial expression, movement and ‘props’ resulting in a hilarious and eccentric mix that had the audience in stitches. Musical tennis, with notes batted around off violins, and the accordion falling apart spraying feathers around the stage then being plugged into a vacuum cleaner are just two examples of theatrical performance provided by the four extremely talented musicians. If laughter really does reduce stress levels (as in the words of one of their songs), then the audience must have been completely ‘chilled-out’ by the end of the show! Once again this was top quality entertainment in our local Village Hall. ************************************************************************************** British Country Legend - HANK WANGFORD - April 1st 2006 It hardly seems possible that The Hank Wangford Show was the 21st Village event organised by the Stoke Golding Jubilee Fund since their inception in 2002. The show was part of Hank Wangford’s 'No Hall Too Small!' tour. Hank was accompanied on the tour by Reg Meuross - one of the country’s greatest Country singer songwriters. We were treated to world-class country music from Hank Wangford and Reg Meuross as well as an insight into Hank’s unique and humorous view of life. We are most grateful to all our loyal supporters. The Hank show coincided with two other popular village events and it is a tribute to the loyalty of the regular audience that we still had a good attendance. Centre Stage Events are subsidised by our District Council, Leicestershire & Rutland County Councils and Arts Council England East Midlands.
