Now that the dust has settled after a
fabulous Folk Week, we have all had a good sleep and a bit of a recovery period,
you are probably wondering what on earth you are going to do with yourselves
until next August? Don’t worry – we’ve got some goodies lined up to
get your musical taste buds tingling. We shall be holding our annual out
of season CEILIDH on 20th October this year – the Cock and Bull Band
are always a big favourite so do come along and support us, and renew some Folk
Week friendships.
In the past Folk Week has had some
very successful evenings at the Theatre Royal, and we are delighted that we are
again working with Michael Wheatley-Ward in his new venture – The Sarah Thorne
Theatre Club – and we shall be putting on some great musical evenings at
Hilderstone Theatre in Broadstairs. See www.sarahthorne-theatreclub.co.uk
for details of this, which we hope will be hugely
successful. Why not join the club which gives you a discount on all shows,
advance booking privileges and the opportunity to support popular theatre and
music in Broadstairs. Use it or lose it!
CEILIDH with the Cock
and Bull Band - Ceilidhs are
FUN and never more so than when the fabulous Cock and Bull Band play their folk,
rock, roots, jazz and funk fusion in an unorthodox stomping swirl of
sound....one of the best dance bands around. Caller Pete Rees will guide you
through the dances. An evening of great fun for everyone. Tickets £7 in advance
