Presented by Saffron Hall

Please note, this is a rescheduled event from 27 February 2021. All tickets holders have been contacted with information about their options.

Originally premiered at London’s Cadogan Hall, this unique concert features a fabulously eclectic range of numbers inspired by the music of the stage and silver screen. The show features everything from Gershwin jazz standards and 1960s film themes such as Leslie Bricusse’s ‘Pure Imagination’ and Michel Legrand’s ‘The Windmills of My Mind’ - through to soul in the form of Donny Hathaway’s ‘Someday We’ll All Be Free’, as well as contemporary film music such as Marvin Hamlisch’s ‘What I Did For Love’ and ‘On My Own’ from Les Misérables.
