Silly Songs of ShakespeareSilly Songs of Shakespeare is a show that does what it says on the tin: there are songs, they are silly and they are based on Shakespeare.

Spend an evening with ‘Fearg & The Sonnettes’ while they serenade you with hilarious “synopsongs” of some of Will’s most famous works and illuminate a weird corner of Shakespeare’s world with their witty and catchy tunes.

This joyfully daft exploration of the Bard works on several levels. The gags are fast-fire and the songs (sometimes actually by Will himself) are witty: but it’s also hugely enjoyable musically. The Sonnettes can really, really sing and their comic timing is every bit as sharp as their singing.

Camus present Oliver!After years of incredible success writing pop songs for stars such as Cliff Richard (Livin’ Doll), Marty Wilde and Tommy Steele (Little White Bull) Lionel Bart turned his talents to musical theatre producing Lock Up Your Daughters and Fings Ain’t Wot They Used T’ be in 1959. But it was his 1960 smash hit Oliver! that made him internationally famous and established the British musical as a force to be reckoned with after decades of American dominance in the genre.

Winning 9 Tony awards on Broadway and 6 Oscars for the film version Oliver! has been revived no less than five times over the years.

With Bart’s trademark witty lyrics, and moving, toe tapping songs the show has never lost its appeal. Generations of children and their parents continue to be enthralled by this wonderful story of one boy’s hope and courage in the face of adversity. Memorable songs include Food, Glorious Food, Consider Yourself, As Long As He Needs Me, Where Is Love?, You Gotta Pick A Pocket Or Two, Oom Pah Pah and many, many more.

Murray Rowlands Innocents Into WarEvery year the Surrey Heath Book Festival likes to shine a spotlight on local writing talent. New Zealand born Surrey Heath resident Murray Rowlands has published a very personal story set against the wartime backdrop of Passchendale. To this day very little is known about New Zealand’s contribution towards World War I and Innocents Into War sets to redress the balance. The story follows two of Murray’s relatives who in 1916 join the army, leave their home in New Zealand for the most harrowing journey of their lives. It is the story of ordinary people flung into the most extraordinary of circumstances. Based on family letters and stories handed down to him by his Great Uncle, Murray has written a moving story of family, love and great courage.

Jo Harman‘A superstar in the making’ is just one of the many plaudits describing the exciting musical talent that is Jo Harman. Her evocative voice and exquisite song writing have marked her out as potentially the best blues, roots, soul fuelled artist ever to come out of the UK.

2013 promises to be a busy year for Jo Harman. She’s supporting Mick Hucknall on his European tour and March saw the release of her debut studio album that fuses intimate ballads, driving rock, soul, blues, acoustic, gospel and roots influences in a way that pulls off the unique trick of sounding both classic and timeless yet still fresh and contemporary.

There’s a great deal of buzz around this remarkable, golden voiced performer and all fans of good music should make a date to see the shining new talent that is Jo Harman.

More talent in a single strand of her blonde hair than most singers have in their entire body SQ

An Evening With Des O’ConnorDon’t miss this chance to see Des O’Connor, television personality, multi-million record selling artist and brilliant comedian live on stage here at Camberley. A rare opportunity to see this show business legend in one of the most intimate concerts you are ever likely to see.

This is Des O’Connor up close and personal. Accompanied by his band, Des will entertain audiences with his trademark wit, style and charm as he recounts tales of his life in show business.

Des O’Connor is today established as one of the world’s most popular and best loved entertainers. Since landing his first television series in the UK in 1963 he has starred in his own mainstream television show every year since then - longer than anyone, anywhere in the world.

In 2001 he received the Special Recognition Award at the National TV Awards and his top-selling autobiography Bananas Can’t Fly (Headline Publishing) was published the same year.

Des is also a multi-million record selling singer, releasing 36 albums with sales of over 16 million and he has spent an astounding 117 weeks in the top ten charts. Last year Des also completed a sensational three month season in the hit West End musical Dreamboats and Petticoats at the Playhouse Theatre, London.

So Des is still very much at the top of his game and in great demand, so early booking recommended as this show will sell out.

Are You Experienced?Are You Experienced? Starring John Campbell is widely accepted as the top tribute to Jimi Hendrix.

The onstage resemblance between John Campbell and his hero Hendrix is uncanny. With showmanship that harks back to Hendrix’s late 60’s performances, even the most ardent fan would be impressed.

So impressed were the organisers of The Isle Of Wight Festival, John Campbell and band were invited to open the 2010 event marking 40 years since Jimi Hendrix performed his last major appearance there. A clear testament to the authenticity and musicianship of Are You Experienced?

The release of the new Hendrix album, People, Hell and Angels will bring the music to a new generation of fans, and Are You Experienced? Are the next best thing!
