French Can Can
Following in the footsteps of the world-famous Moulin
Rouge, Lido de Paris and the Folies Bergere, ‘French Can Can’
is a critically-acclaimed stage spectacular that celebrates the
elegance of Paris and the high-kicking glamour of the city’s
most famous dance routine – the can-can!
French Can Can recreates the bohemian world of Toulouse
Lautrec as the perfect backdrop for this lavish musical
adventure. Featuring an international cast of beautiful and
talented dancers and music hall performers with glittering
stage sets and over 60 hand-crafted costumes, all played out
against the melodies of Offenbach’s famous overture that
combines with a beautifully romantic Parisian score.
The acclaimed French Can Can dancers perform the
breathtaking traditional choreography and dazzling new
dance routines created especially for this production.
In true French burlesque tradition the performance delivers
style, energy and that certain je ne sais quoi – the perfect
night of pure indulgence and passion!

Ralph McTell –
One more for the road
One of the great storytellers, Ralph McTell, is celebrating more
than 40 years on the road. Known for his virtuoso guitar style,
he is primarily a prolific and gifted songwriter. With a style
that invites you into a unique world, he weaves a narrative
that is both significant and poignant.
Ralph made his debut in 1968 with the album Eight Frames a
Second and in 1974 the release of Streets of London earned
him an Ivor Novello Award. In 1993, Nanci Griffith recorded
‘From Clare to Here’ on her Grammy award-winning album
and in 2002 he was presented with the prestigious Lifetime
Achievement Award at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards.

Almost two and a half decades and over 16 albums later they
continue to add to their growing army of followers - it’s not
unheard of to find three generations from the same family at
