The Repair Café invites local people to bring their broken or worn household items and give
them a second life. Volunteer repairers will be on hand to help fix small electrical goods,
bikes, laptops/pcs, and clothing – from hairdryers that won’t heat up, to laptops running slowly to jumpers with moth holes.
Come and enjoy a fantastic evening of entertainment jam-packed with non-stop hits, expert narrative and lots of fun. You will be taken on a journey through several decades of pop as we celebrate the music of Jeff Lynne’s ELO, Roy Orbison, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers and The Beatles’ George Harrison.Also the collective genius that was The Traveling Wilburys. Although the Wilburys never toured, here you have the chance to experience what it might have been like to see them live, as we explore their many collaborative hits. Now in its tenth year of successful touring this popular show is an up-tempo feel-good celebration of classics such as Pretty Woman, Mr Blue Sky, Please Please Me, End of The Line, Handle With Care, Free Falling, Blowin in the Wind, Tweeter and the Monkey Man, Heading for the Light, Only the Lonely and many more.
