The Memorial Theatre has a host of top live entertainment coming up throughout the summer.
Paul Merton and Chums will be appearing on Tuesday 8th July as part of the Frome Festival and then on Wednesday 16th July Pam Ayres brings her latest show following the recent publication of her new book of poetry, ‘You Made Me Late Again!!,’ copies of which she will be signing after the show.
Pam’s work is funny, and approachable. It sounds simple, as though dashed off, but this is deceptive. Her hair-trigger timing, her eye for the detail of everyday life, and for the absurdity therein, makes for an art that hides art.
Pam has sold millions of books, CDs, and DVDs over the years, and she is still a regular on TV and radio, on programmes such as Just A Minute, Ayres On The Air, QI, Countdown, and The One Show.
Then on the 19th July celebrating its 130th anniversary, the world-famous Treorchy Male Choir is in town.
The choir has toured USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand while appearing on more than 90 commercial albums and has shared the stage with Dame Shirley Bassey, Ella Fitzgerald, Tom Jones, Julie Andrews and Burt Bacharach and performed for royalty, including Queen Victoria, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Albert of Monaco.
With a vast repertoire of music from traditional Welsh to operatic choruses, showstopping musicals and contemporary ballads, Treorchy is regarded as a “master” in the choral singing arena.
Finally, between 7th-9th August Spellbound present ‘The Wizard of Oz.’ Tickets cost £10 (£8/9 concessions) and are available from the box office.
