This musical powerhouse of a show starts with the explosion of Brit Pop in 1962, through to the era of Flower Power and Free Love of the late 60s.
Featuring incredible performances and beautiful bespoke costumes, Twist & Shout will transport you back to the sights and sounds of the Swinging Sixties. A non-stop feast of music featuring a live band and leading performers delivering a musical powerhouse of a show that includes hits such as She Loves You, Glad All Over, You’re My World, Jumpin Jack Flash, Something Tells Me I’m In to Something Good, Shout, Mr Tambourine Man, Ferry Cross The Mersey, and so many more.
The show will be supported by the brilliant local musician, Ian Latimer as the opening act.

Whilst you can bring a blanket or a fold up chair, no bottles will be allowed in except an unopened 500ml bottle of water. There will be traders within the stage area for food and drink for the evening.
