The Live and Local organisation have just announced the Autumn season of shows. Click here for details.
If you enjoy virtuoso guitar playing, the following artists have put on excellent shows at previous Live and Local events:
Saturday, 3rd October 2009, 7:30 PM at Theatre at the URC, Tideswell An Evening with Gordon Giltrap presented by Gordon Giltrap Guitar legend who has performed with the likes of Midge Ure and Sir Cliff Richard brings an evening of amazing guitar, witty chat and anecdotes about life on tour.
Friday, 6th November 2009, 7:30 PM at Hulland Ward & District Millennium Village Hall Eduardo Niebla Experience presented by Eduardo Niebla, Flamenco-gypsy-jazz guitar maestro is joined by a tabla player for this intimate evening of outstanding music from the Arab world, India and South America.
Live and Local put on many of their events in village halls with good facilities. Maybe one day, Live and Local events will take place in our own village hall…..


We’ve seen both these artists at previous Live and Local events. Both were excellent tho’ I do admit to a pref for Eduardo… brilliant with tabla. As they are held in small halls there’s a friendly,intimate atmosphere. One venue even provided nibbles on the cafe style tables.

I can heartily recommend the two New Perspectives Theatre Company events:
Wed 18th Nov ‘Faith Healer‘, Highfields School Matlock
Thur 10th Dec ‘Faith Healer‘, Theatre at the URC, Tideswell
Last year the History Society saw them do ‘Sir Gawain and the Green Knight‘ at Matlock, it was a great performance.
