Christine’s career now spans an incredible 40 years. Over that bridge of time she has released 24
albums, a DVD celebrating 20 years in the business and an acclaimed single with
the BBC: the theme tune for “The Life and Loves of a She-Devil” in 1987.
Throughout, she has mesmerized and astounded with her unique
blend of soul, blues, pop, jazz, country and folk, and today she remains as
powerful, subtle, effortless and relevant as ever.
Collister grew up on the Isle of Man, and her professional recording career began after she moved to the UK in the mid 1980’s, when she came to national attention singing the theme for the BBC Television series The Life and Loves Of A She Devil.
A period of great critical and commercial success when working with Clive Gregson was followed by a fruitful and enduring association with Richard Thompson.
Christine is
a magical live performer, with her gravity defying voice, assured and
impressive live performances and great personal charm has become a familiar and
popular name on the ‘live’ scene including major international festivals from
Glastonbury to Cambridge, Winnipeg to Port Fairey.
“ … a voice personally delivered by God.” The Times
‘Christine Collister has a killer voice. As full as Dusty
Springfield or as blue as Alison Moyet’ – Froots
Released in 2024 - Children Of The Sea, a very special project of 9 original songs inspired by Manx Folklore and a magical sense of place. Part funded by the Isle Of Man Arts Council, Culture Vannin and Fledgling Records, The CD is accompanied by a beautiful book complete with lyrics, inspirations and stories with original illustrations by Manx artists. It promises to be Collister’s finest release and marks a turning point in her authentic artistic expression.
Christine
has always enjoyed the collaborative process and has been an integral part of
many and varied musical projects over the years. Her most recent collaboration
with brilliant Australian guitarist Michael Fix has been a successful and delightful
surprise for them both. They released
their second CD “North&South” in October of 2019 with a sell out tour of
the UK followed by an equally successful tour of the Australian Festival scene
in 2020.
‘Christine Collister’s singing was powerful and emotional, shifting effortlessly from soft and angelic to knock you out Janice Joplin style. Michael Fix’s guitar was equally superb. He provided tasteful support in the most charming way and would then explode into amazing virtuoso runs across the finger board, all impeccably tasteful and clean.’– Troubadour (Woy Woy NSW) concert review, Michael Fine
Christine’s natural warmth and intimate connection with audiences coupled with her stunning voice, make her concerts delightfully memorable events.‘…one of the world’s finest..’ – Q
Christine also toured and recorded with the female super group Daphne’s Flight. In 2017, 21 years after their first collaboration, they released a highly acclaimed second album: "Knows Time, Knows Change" on Fled’gling Records.
'Solid gold standard
dream-team music making. A key album of this year already, and no mistake' froots

Tickets: Adult £8. Under 16's £7
Nicholas (Fionn O'Shea) and Isabel (Ann Skelly) are made for each other, but fate does not always choose the easiest path to true love. As destiny pulls them together, so do family, passion, and faith drive them apart.
Nicholas' father, William (Pierce Brosnan), comes home one day to shatter his family's quiet, modest life. He tells them that in a moment of divine intervention, God has instructed him to dedicate his life to painting. He quits his job and sets off for the coast, leaving his shell-shocked wife and son to fend for themselves.
Meanwhile Isabel and her family live a charmed existence on a nearby small neighbouring island, their house full of music and poetry. When tragedy strikes and her brother suffers a terrible accident, the music stops, and Isabel's parents (Helena Bonham Carter, Gabriel Byrne) decide in their grief to send Isabel to a convent school on the mainland.
The young lovers embark on their own individual journeys of heartache and misplaced love, before fate contrives to pull the threads of their lives together. When they meet, it will be like a miracle.

THE EMERALD DAWN are a multi-instrumentalist, eclectic, melodic progressive rock quartet, who combine elements from classical music, jazz, folk and rock to produce their own original, distinctive and exciting sound—a sound that is cinematic, epic, experimental and powerful. Usually haunting, often beautifully melodic and always highly atmospheric, the music of The Emerald Dawn paints images or tells stories that stimulate the imagination and takes the listener on unforgettable musical journeys.
The Emerald Dawn have been making huge waves in the UK prog scene over the past few years, having made it into the top ten in both the Best Band/Artist and Best Album categories in the 2023 annual Prog Magazine Readers' Poll. The band won the best performance vote at HRH Prog XII in 2023, the largest prog festival in the UK. This summer the band will be headlining at the 2024 Soundle music festival. The Emerald Dawn's latest album 'In Time' won the Prog Explorations Plus award for the Best Album of 2023. The Prog Mind ranked the band's keyboard player's performance fourth, the band's guitarist's performance second, the band's bass player's performance second, and the band's drummer's performance best in the world. In addition, the listeners of Progphonic and Game of Prog voted The Emerald Dawn 's vocalist runner up in the Best Female Vocalist category.
The Emerald Dawn comprise Tree Stewart (keyboards, flute, acoustic guitar, and vocals), Ally Carter (guitar, tenor and soprano saxophones, and keyboards), David Greenaway (6-string fretless and fretted bass guitars), and Tom Jackson (drums). The Emerald Dawn was originally formed in Edinburgh, Scotland, by multi-instrumentalists, Tree Stewart and Ally Carter, before moving to St Ives in the far south west of England, where they were joined by jazz drummer Tom Jackson and, more recently, by bass player David Greenaway.

…a note on Gary Moore
Blues rock fans, this is the moment you’ve been waiting for! The Gary Moore Blues Experience is on the road again continuing its Steppin’ Out Tour 2025, bringing the legendary sound of one of the greatest guitarists of all time back to the stage. Whether you’re a lifelong fan or just discovering the magic of Gary Moore, you won’t want to miss it.
As an instrumentalist, he was formidable, able to shred with the best of them, to play at lightning speed, as well as tastefully and not just for the sake of it. One of the all-time great bluesmen, Albert King, said about him, “He got a good ear, he can listen, he got all kinds of power, all kinds of fire. Turns it up enough so he can feel it”.
He possessed tone to make guitarists sweat and salivate, variously referred to as “fiery”, “intense”, “sweet”, “sublime”, “aggressive”, “mouthwatering”. He also had an unusual technique in which his monster middle finger was a prominent hammer, with a reach spanning two frets between the index finger and the second finger, when most guitarists span two frets with the index and the third finger.
He covered a wide range of styles in his career, including progressive jazz rock (Colosseum II), heavy rock (Thin Lizzy, Ozzy Osbourne), Celtic rock, and the Blues to which he returned in 1990 with collaborations with the blues greats Albert Collins, BB King, Albert King, John Mayall and other luminaries such as George Harrison.
He also contributed some timeless songs, many of them ballads of the highest quality, in any era, which have become classics: Still Got the Blues for You, Story of the Blues, Midnight Blues, Still in Love with You and his mainstream hit, Parisienne Walkways.
So, expect electrifying performances of those classics. Every note, every solo and every heartfelt lyric will be played with the passion and intensity that made Gary Moore a true icon.
There was, and is,
no one quite like him.

Since their first get together, to record the eponymous St Agnes Fountain album in 2001, the quartet; David Hughes, Fairport Convention's Chris Leslie and multi award winning duo Chris While and Julie Matthews, have brought musical invention and laughter to the star-dust atmosphere of the season.

Chris, Chris and Julie will be keeping the Christmas Aggie spirit alive and working as a trio celebrating 22 years together again this year.

Seth was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize in 2005 for 'Kitty Jay'. Multiple albums, tours and high-profile collaborations later, the acclaimed folk artist released his latest studio album The Granite Way in February on his own label, Honour Oak Records. It’s a collection of songs recorded alongside a group of longtime collaborators of Seth’s, staying true to his roots and referring to ancient stories that inspired early West Country storytelling.
Seth Lakeman: ‘Each song feels strongly connected through history to the moors and the sea. I had written the stories and songs beforehand and had the melodic tunes ready for us all to explore when we recorded in the room, and the musical interplay between this lineup really displays their appetite for sounds and subjects within the folk tradition.’
In recent
years Seth was asked to record on Van Morrison’s album ‘Moving On Skiffle’ and
he collaborated with Public Service Broadcasting. Seth has also previously
worked, and toured extensively, with Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin) with his band
the Sensational Space Shifters.

The peasant girl Giselle has fallen in love with Albrecht. When she discovers that he is actually a nobleman promised to another, she kills herself in despair.

Wracked with guilt, Albrecht visits Giselle?s grave, where he must face the Wilis ? and Giselle?s ghost.

Raised by a scheming dwarf and unaware of his true family origins, a young man embarks on an epic journey. Soon, destiny brings him face-to-face with a shattered sword, a fearsome dragon and the cursed ring it guards, and a Valkyrie forced into enchanted slumber...

Andreas Schager, in his much-anticipated debut with The Royal Opera, stars as Siegfried?s titular hero, alongside Christopher Maltman?s towering Wanderer, Peter Hoare?s treacherous Mime and Elisabet Strid?s radiant Br?nnhilde.

From the files of Scotland Yard come these startling stage adaptations of infamous true-life nineteenth century crimes. During the course of this macabre performance, you'll encounter many nefarious individuals from late Victorian London, such as the infamous Whitechapel Murderer Henry Wainwright. He murdered his mistress in a particularly bloodthirsty manner, and hoped to escape justice. However, the dismembered corpse of Harriet Lane refused to stay hidden.
You will also meet the Lambeth Poisoner Dr Thomas Neill Cream, the sadistic serial killer and possibly the dreaded Jack the Ripper also. His murder spree on both sides of the Atlantic made his name a byword for horror.
The company is now in its fifteenth year of touring. We are one of the UK's busiest and hardest-working small-scale theatre companies, and we are unique in that we specialise solely in original adaptations of classic Victorian and Edwardian popular fiction, and stageworks based on actual events from that era.
