SUMMARY:The Rise & Fall of Little Voice
DESCRIPTION:White Cobra Theatricals proudly presents The Rise and Fall of Little Voice\, Jim Cartwright’s Olivier Award-winning modern classic.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShy and reclusive LV spends her days locked away in her bedroom\, finding solace in her father’s old records. But when she opens her mouth to sing\, something extraordinary happens: the powerful voices of countless divas pour out. \nWhen a sleazy talent scout hears her gift however\, LV is thrust into a spotlight she never asked for\, much to the annoyance of her brash\, larger-than-life mother. \nAs dreams clash with desperation\, Little Voice must find the courage to speak—and sing—for herself. \nFunny\, raw and heartbreakingly human! Don’t miss this bittersweet tale that celebrates the magic of music and the fight to be heard. \nThis amateur production of “The Rise and Fall of Little Voice” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. On behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk

SUMMARY:Oasiz – 2026
DESCRIPTION:OASIZ are one of the UK’s most authentic tribute bands a point proved in 2023 when a short clip of front man Steve performing as Liam went viral on social media with over half a million views. Many fans were convinced the clip was actually of Liam Gallagher himself which led to the story being covered in the national press as well as a high profile TV appearance later that year. \nTo celebrate the 30th anniversary of the record breaking Oasis shows at Knebworth\, OASIZ are embarking on their third UK tour and this is your chance to see them in top form. The set list will pay homage to the most memorable parts of the Knebworth shows and will also include all the big hitting career spanning anthems that you would associate with a greatest hits tour. \nOne not to miss!
