Dear all,

 16 strings, 8 dancing feet and 4 voices in 1 hilarious electrifying show! Graffiti Classics are a comedy string quartet who never sit down, bursting the perceived elitist boundaries of classical music with their all-singing, all-dancing musical comedy show.
Wickedly funny, the group energetically leap and clown their way through an eclectic musical landscape from Beethoven to Elvis, all virtuosically accompanied on their instruments. This group is on a mission: to make classical music irresistibly fun. This isn’t a classical concert - it's a crazy mix of musical comedy, gypsy-folk, opera, bluegrass, stand-up comedy and dance, all tied together with cheeky audience interaction. Our next WI open meeting will be a presentation of TV Memories of Westmorland and Cumberland. Our speakers, Jim Bownass and Andrew Leitch, used to work for BBC and Border TV and now run the Cumbria Film Archive, a huge library of rare films from the area. They will focus their talk on information from our locality.
New members and visitors are welcome from 8pm. Admission cost is £4 to include tea and cakes. Call Sue Griffiths on 07718 904082 or Liz Threadgold on 07894 710014 for more information. Hope to see you there! |
