Forget everything you think you know about string quartets!
Forget everything you think you know about string quartets; Bowjangles will turn your preconceptions of classical musicians upside down with their spectacular mix of upbeat classical music, comedy songs, well-known film, pop and rock tunes and foot-stomping Gypsy and Celtic bangers - all presented with humour, charisma and impressive physicality.
All the members of this long-running group are also accomplished multi-instrumentalists and singers, in styles ranging from pop to opera, jazz and rock - with something to appeal to everyone in the family, young and old. Bowjangles have been performing together across the globe for many years, at arts festivals and events in Scandinavia, Spain, Portugal, Australia and the Caribbean, in concert halls across China, Off Broadway in New York, and of course all over the UK, most notably at Glastonbury Festival, the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and at the London Southbank Centre.
The group have also been featured on BBC, CBeebies, Sky and ITV with their theatre shows 'Excalibow' and 'Dracula in Space'. This year, they celebrate 17 years of performing together and bring you all their very best bits from that time, as well as a whole load of new stuff too!
This event is suitable for anyone aged 50+, including those with long-term health conditions such as dementia, as well as their carers, and people looking to create new connections!
We use a ‘Pay What You Can’ pricing structure. If you can afford to pay a little more for your place, this helps us keep lower-priced tickets accessible for those who need it, and means that we can continue to put on high-quality community events like this one. Lower-cost ticket options will always be available to people experiencing financial hardship who might otherwise not be able to attend.
