Entertainment Tips Thread

[Donger]

I've been lucky enough to have had some cracking nights out lately ... an eclectic mix of theatre productions, films, music gigs and stand-up comedy performances. I always appreciate people's recommendations and like to go along and experience all kinds of live entertainment. Recent highlights for me have been the films "Heretic" and "Companion" plus a great stand-up gig by Chris McCausland. But I've just got to recommend this lot to you:

I never thought I'd ever enjoy anything like that, but the deadpan humour, the sheer range of different music styles and the talent of the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain just shone out. A great performance including David Bowie, Adele, Sylvester, Black Sabbath, Robert Palmer numbers, interspersed with Rawhide, The Muppet Show and Champion the Wonder Horse! I'm told they do a great version of "Shaft" sometimes, too. I smiled from start to finish and can't recommend them highly enough. Real feelgood stuff.

If you can recommend any really great shows, films or gigs that are touring now, let's hear about them, Cyclechatters. Spread the word.

Ukelele music is 72% cooler if the muzos wear Hawain shirts. Cool music though.
