A top- takes


ONE of the finest croon­ ers in the business comes to Clitheroe tomorrow when the St Mary’s Cen­ tre hosts “The Legends of Swing Show”. Golden-voiced Alan Becks, pictured, pays trib-


;ute to th a t cool era of swing, delivering a caval­ cade of classic unforget­ table songs made famous by some of the world’s greatest recording artists of our time. This wonderful nostal­


gic show recalls the leg­ ends of swing - Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis jun., Bobby Darin, Nat King Cole, Tony Bennett, Andy Willia'ms and Matt Monro... - Becks performs hit after


hit, including “Ain’t That a Kick in the Head”, “Fly Me to the Moon”, “Mr Bojangles”, “I Left My Heart in San Fransisco”, “You’re Just Too Good to be True”, “My Kind of Girl”, “Mack The Knife”' and many more. The St Mary’s Centre is


a wonderful setting for this highly professional show.

f " ' * " A comedy three-course banquet!


“One Night Stand” comedy night at Stage & Screen @ St Mary’s Centre, Clitheroe.


I WAS reliably informed that the night’s line-up was “bloody good” before the show began. Mind you, the bloke who told me


should know... it was Greg Cook, compere for the eveningl He knows a thing or two about


comedy, having played at the Com­ edy Store, Jongleurs and a t Lee Hurst’s renowned Backyard, as well as many clubs up and down the country. Greg was proved right as former


City Life comedian of the year Andy Watson launched himself on to the stage for an amazingly fre­ netic 20 minutes. Think Norman Wisdom acting


out an episode of the Simpsons and you’re not far off. He left the stage to allow the audience to refresh themselves at St Mary’s new bar. Next up was Dominic Wood­


ward. This was the surprise pack­ age of the evening as he raised the roof with a blistering set th a t included him being dumped for not opening a car door for his girlfriend and a woman who took one deep breath in 1971 and has been exhal­ ing ever since. Hopefully St Mary’s will get him back soon. Our last act of the night, Daliso


Chaponda, made his way to Clitheroe from Malawi via South Africa, Canada and Manchester. The crowd warmed to him from


the off and he was soon taking us on a journey through the rights and wrongs of stealing and how Madon­

HIS name might not be familiar here... yet, but in his native Ireland singer Tommy Fleming is a household name. The fast-rising young


singer has had his own TV special plus albums topping the Irish charts and was chosen as the


voice of Ireland for a new “World in Union”CD featuring one outstand­ ing voice from each of the countries represented in the Rugby World Cup. This Sunday evening,


Tommy will sing live at Chipping Village Hall as part of his first ever solo

na made it possible for him to be in Clitheroe. He was set for an encore, but had


to rush to get the last train back to Manchester from the Interchange. But, having had the comedy equiv- > alent of a three-course meal, the audience couldn’t really complain. You see, the thing about comedy


is that you really have to experience it live - a review is ju s t a quick sketch of how great the night was. And, at just £5 for three great


acts and a top compere, Clitheroe really is being spoiled. The organisers have already lined


up Phil Buckley, Mike Newall and Dave Twentyman, with one more to confirm, for October 6th. I ’d sug­ gest you get your tickets booked now!

Thrilling start to season


AN evening of piano and wind music on Wednesday, October 3rd, will begin Clitheroe Concerts Society’s keenly awaited 56th season. Lake District-born Sam Haywood


will travel from Berlin to join the Lon- don-based Galliard Ensemble to play an evening of Beethoven, Gustav Holst and Poulenc. ; By far the most intriguing piece is


the wind quintet by Holst, well known for his “Planets Suite”, and described variously as “fluent and tuneful” and “delightfully witty”. The Galliard’s record of this on Chandos was univer­ sally acclaimed. The second concert, on November


7th, sees the welcome return of pianist Llyr Williams, whose last visit was a sell-out. This is followed on December 5th by


an unusual combination of guitar and cello, when international recording stars Craig Ogden and Gabriella For­ tune combine to present music from Boccherini and Bach to Mark-Antho- ny Turnage. Guests on February 6th are the


Manchester Piano Trio, folllowed by the brilliant young Carducci String Quartet on March 5th. The season concludes with the pop­


ular pianist Katia Apekisheva who, after Haydn and Ravel in the first half of her epneert, will play Mous- sorgsky’s popular “Pictures a t an Exhibition” in its original piano ver­ sion. Concerts are held a t the Clitheroe


Royal Grammar School Sixth Form Centre, on York Street, starting a t 7- 30 p.m. There is plentiful parking within


yards of the entrance. Tickets can be obtained at Clitheroe


Music, in Moor Lane, the Clitheroe Tourist Information Office, in Market Place, and at the door on the night. A significant saving on the series


can be made by joining the society. For membership information, contact Dr Richard Neville on 01200 424129, or for general inquiries, chairman Tony Cooper on 01200 424577 or sec­ retary Ken Geddes on 01200 423474.
