If you are looking for something different, how about a thought-provoking play by Burn the Cork Theatre Company this afternoon, Friday 6 September at The Bungalow.
Set in the 1920’s, Airswimming by Charlotte Jones is inspired by “a Miss Kitson and a Miss Baker” who had been incarcerated in a hospital for the “criminally insane.” Watch in awe as this unlikely duo form the most unbreakable of bonds which unfold from the darkest of circumstances. There are two shows, today Friday and Sunday 8 September. Tickets on the door both days from 2.00pm.
Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Carpets (a Tribute to Oasis and Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds) is back at The Bungalow on Friday 6 September.
With all the Oasis chat going on, this gig will be a busy one. The UK’s biggest followed tribute to the music of OASIS and NGHFB give you a show that has a repertoire that includes Champagne Supernova, Don’t Look Back in Anger, Importance of Being Idle, Half the World Away, Supersonic to name but a few!
They are the only Noel Gallagher Tribute in the world to have ever had a No. 1 in the UK Charts, Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Carpets have toured all over the UK & Ireland and are the biggest selling tribute to Noel Gallagher in the world today. Regularly headlining in various festivals (and most recently playing to 6,000+ at the Bowlers Arena in Manchester) it’s easy to see why this band have quickly become established as the best tribute of their kind. Don’t just take my word for it though, go check out their You Tube Channel ‘Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Carpets’ and judge for yourself. Tickets on the door from 7.00pm.
