KING PLEASURE<br />
AND THE<br />
BISCUIT BOYS<br />
<strong>2018</strong> sees King Pleasure &<br />
The Biscuit Boys celebrate<br />
a remarkable 30 years on<br />
the road. More than the<br />
greatest jump, jive and swing<br />
band on the planet, they’ve<br />
become an institution. In<br />
their three decades, the<br />
band have delivered nearly<br />
6500 performances in 21<br />
countries, played on 36 radio<br />
shows and made 73 television<br />
appearances. Rough, tough<br />
and always rocking, King<br />
Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys<br />
have appeared at festivals,<br />
in concert and at clubs<br />
throughout the UK and Europe.<br />
The band has also performed<br />
alongside B.B. King, Cab<br />
Calloway and His Orchestra,<br />
Ray Charles, and toured with<br />
the actual Blues Brothers Band<br />
– the one from the movie!<br />
By popular demand the boys<br />
are back to deliver another<br />
sell-out performance which<br />
will have you dancing in the<br />
aisles.<br />

SNOW QUEEN:<br />
BY MIKE KENNY<br />
Kai and Gerda had been<br />
friends for as long as they<br />
could remember. Day followed<br />
day, always the same. Until in a<br />
whirl of magic and deception,<br />
splinters of a magical broken<br />
mirror blow in the wind,<br />
freezing hearts and changing<br />
everything! As Kai is pulled<br />
under the spell of the powerful<br />
snow queen of ice and<br />
coldness, we follow Gerda’s<br />
quest to save her friend and<br />
return life to normal.<br />
Mike Kenny has taken Hans<br />
Christian Andersen’s most<br />
highly acclaimed story and<br />
simplified it into a tale for<br />
the young. Ivan Stott returns<br />
to tutti frutti (Underneath<br />
a Magical Moon) to create<br />
memorable music and songs<br />
accompanied by a typically<br />
beautiful tutti frutti design.<br />
Join our winter journey about<br />
growing up, loyalty, friendship<br />
and the dangers of the<br />
unknown.<br />

JEREMY HARDY<br />
Jeremy Hardy is in his 4th<br />
decade as a stand-up. That’s<br />
a more dramatic way of saying<br />
he started 34 years ago and,<br />
without a lottery win, probably<br />
has at least another 34 years<br />
to go. In 2014, the tenth series<br />
of Jeremy Hardy Speaks to<br />
the Nation was broadcast on<br />
Radio 4 and more recently<br />
his brand-new series Jeremy<br />
Hardy Feels It. He is also well<br />
known for his appearances<br />
on The News Quiz and I’m<br />
Sorry I Haven’t a Clue. Indeed,<br />
Alan Bennett recently said he<br />
likes him “but he’s only on the<br />
radio”. However, Jeremy isn’t<br />
only on the radio, his television<br />
credits include: Jack Dee’s<br />
Election Helpdesk (BBC2), QI<br />
(BBC1), Mock the Week (BBC2),<br />
Grumpy Old Men (BBC1), Back<br />
in The Day (BBC2), Not Tonight<br />
with John Sergeant (BBC2).<br />
He is also on the road all year<br />
round and has never stopped<br />
doing live shows since <strong>19</strong>84.<br />
So, it seems fitting that Jeremy<br />
should visit us in <strong>Otley</strong> for<br />
an evening of laughter and<br />
commentary on the state of<br />
the nation.<br />

ANIMALS AND<br />
FRIENDS<br />
In <strong>19</strong>64 a wave of new<br />
energetic rock and roll swept<br />
over the youth of the world. On<br />
the crest of this wave was The<br />
Beatles, The Rolling Stones<br />
and of course The Animals.<br />
From the banks of the River<br />
Tyne came the North East’s<br />
offering: a brand of rhythm<br />
n blues that the whole world<br />
seemed to grasp greedily.<br />
The Animals were the second<br />
British band to top the<br />
American charts after The<br />
Beatles with the now multimillion<br />
selling and legendary<br />
anthem, House of the Rising<br />
Sun. The band subsequently<br />
achieved over twenty global<br />
top ten hit records.<br />
Though the band has changed,<br />
the songs remain eternal.<br />
Alongside covers of Ray<br />
Charles and John Lee Hooker<br />
classics, they ensure that the<br />
nostalgic element comes with<br />
an enjoyably abrasive edge!<br />
Featuring from the original<br />
Animals – John Steel & Mick<br />
Gallagher (The Blockheads).<br />
