Gang will put on a great show
11:26am Friday 14th March 2008
FOR a great evening's entertainment, there is nothing quite like a Gang Show - and the Hereford Gang Show which takes to the stage at The Courtyard during Easter Week promises to be bigger and better than ever.
Today's headlines
Featuring the biggest cast for years, with more than 100 youngsters taking part, the show is a unique blend of song, dance and sketches for all the family.
The cast have been preparing for five months and producer Ian Strangward says they have responded really well to the high-energy show.
The show will be taking a light-hearted look at school, paying tribute to Queen as well as playing host to some singing nuns and a new adventure for Doctor Who. With songs from some classic musicals, and sketches from the likes of the Two Ronnies thrown in, the show promises to be unmissable.
The 2008 Hereford Gang Show runs from Tuesday, March 25, to Saturday, March 29, at The Courtyard. To book, call the box office on 0870 1122330 or click on the link below.

Inspector Morse creator at Leominster Festival
A VISIT by the creator of Inspector Morse, Colin Dexter, will be one of the highlights of the 2008 Leominster Festival, which runs from Friday, May 30, to Sunday, June 8, and this year promises something for everyone.
Double delight
THE internationally renowned identical twin sisters Antoinette and Claire Cann will be performing a sparkling programme of piano duets at St John the Baptist Church, Aymestrey, near Leominster on Saturday, May 24, at 7.30pm. Antoinette and Claire first played the piano when they were three years old, picking out tunes on the family piano. “The first thing we picked out was the theme to Listen with Mother.” Starting lessons was apparently the only time the pair were at odds about their playing. “Toni was very keen to go,” says Claire. “But at the time, Claire was shy,” adds Antoinette.
Village past brought to life in new book
A LOCAL football team that played in a premiership stadium and an orchestra that appeared in an early TV broadcast are tall claims for a small Herefordshire village – but Fownhope has proof.
