Over at the Royal Concert Hall,<br />
Disney and Pixar’s Toy Story will<br />
be presented live in concert for<br />
the first time in the UK in <strong>2022</strong> (7<br />
<strong>April</strong>) featuring a screening of the<br />
ground-breaking complete film<br />
with Oscar and Grammy-winning<br />
composer Randy Newman’s<br />
musical score performed live to<br />
the film by the Novello Orchestra.<br />
Next door at the Theatre Royal<br />
they welcome George Orwell’s<br />
world-famous Animal Farm (5-9<br />
<strong>April</strong>). The fable tells the story of<br />
a revolution and its aftermath.<br />
I can’t claim to be a ballet<br />
connoisseur, but I quite fancy<br />
seeing The Nutcracker when it<br />
visits the Theatre Royal (12-16<br />
<strong>April</strong>). Adored by critics and<br />
audiences alike. With familysized<br />
helpings of Bourne’s<br />
trademark wit, pathos and<br />
magical fantasy.<br />
The official Strictly Come<br />
Dancing – The Professionals<br />
UK Tour is back (10/22 <strong>May</strong>) and<br />
direct from the USA, the biggest<br />
and best Elvis show in the<br />
world is also back starring three<br />
‘Ultimate Elvis Tribute’ World<br />
Champions (16 <strong>May</strong>).<br />
If you fancy seeing behind the<br />
scenes, discover the world<br />
behind the curtain and learn<br />
about the amazing story of<br />
the Theatre Royal and Royal<br />
Concert Hall on their Limelight<br />
Backstage Tour (23 <strong>April</strong>).<br />
Since starting in Nottingham in<br />
2005 Dot To Dot Festival has<br />
established itself as the UK’s<br />
premier festival for unearthing<br />
the hottest new talent around,<br />
alongside established acts from<br />
all over the globe and it’s back<br />
for <strong>2022</strong> at various venues across<br />
the city (29 <strong>May</strong>). The festival<br />
has put acts such as The 1975,<br />
Catfish and the Bottlemen,<br />
Mumford & Sons, Florence + The<br />
Machine, Ed Sheeran and The xx<br />
on the map.<br />
Also returning are The Lady<br />
Boys of Bangkok (22-30 <strong>April</strong>),<br />
in Sneinton Market Square,<br />
featuring 16 of the world’s<br />
most glamorous and beautiful<br />
showgirls...that just happen to<br />
be men! Expect plenty of funfilled<br />
comedy, and outrageous<br />
cheekiness, with over 400<br />
incredible costumes.<br />
Castle Rock Brewery’s annual<br />
(and long overdue) celebration<br />
of beer is back for <strong>2022</strong> (20 - 21<br />
<strong>May</strong>). Join them in the brewery<br />
yard for a weekend of live music,<br />
great food and good times.<br />
Finally, now here’s something a<br />
bit different – The Red Hot Chilli<br />
Pipers (the most famous bagpipe<br />
band in the world) are playing at<br />
the Albert Hall Nottingham on<br />
Thursday 26 <strong>April</strong>.
