Synopsis
At a glittering party in 18th-century Paris, the poet Andréa Chenier delivers an impassioned
denunciation of Louis XVI. Five years later, the Revolution has given way to the Terror,
transforming the power balance between Chénier, his beloved Maddalena, and Gérard, the
man who could destroy him...
Jonas Kaufmann headlines David McVicar’s spectacular staging, under the baton of long-
time collaborator Antonio Pappano – who conducts Giordano’s epic historical drama of
revolution and forbidden love in his last production as Music Director of The Royal Opera.

MY NATIONAL GALLERY
Directed by Phil Grabsky and Ali Ray
Running time 100 minutes
The National Gallery of London is one of the world’s greatest art galleries. It is full of masterpieces, an endless resource of history, an endless source of stories. But whose stories are told? Which art has the most impact and on whom? The power of great art lies in its ability to communicate with anyone, no matter their art historical knowledge, their background, their beliefs.
This film gives voice to those who work at the gallery – from cleaner to curator, security guard to director – who identify the one artwork that means the most to them and why. An assortment of people from all walks of life who have a strong connection to the gallery make surprising choices of both well-known and lesser-known artworks. Finally, some well-known celebrities explain what they head for when they visit the gallery.
These stories are used as a lens through which to explore the 200-year history of the National Gallery and what the future may hold for this spectacular space.
Everyone in this film has a special connection to the National Gallery, making for some heart-warming, moving and surprising stories.
Beloved celebrities, devoted staff members and world class experts come together to paint a unique portrait of this iconic British institution for its 200th birthday.
Tickets: General Admission £13.00
All ticket prices include a £1 booking fee

THE BAR-STEWARD SONS OF VAL DOONICAN
****THE STANDARD SEATING FOR THIS SHOW IS NOW SOLD OUT, THERE ARE A FEW ACCESSIBLE SEATS REMAINING. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE ADDED TO A WAITING LIST INCASE OF TICKET RE-SALES PLEASE CALL THE BOX OFFICE ON 01404 384050***
Founded in Barnsley Rock City in 2006 by their outspoken and energetic ringleader, Scott Doonican, The Bar-Steward Sons of Val Doonican are on a mission!
Far from being your typical folk ensemble, this cult-like collective of like-minded knit-wear enthusiasts are determined to follow in their spiritual father’s immortal footsteps and keep his legacy alive. Scott and his brothers-from-other-mothers, Alan, J.R., Mo-Jo and Dave, have quite the talent for Bar-Stewardizing other famous people’s songs with new satirical comedy lyrics, on folk instruments, and to complete their outrageously understated image, the Doonicans have become instantly recognisable for their immaculate hair and their stylish choice of sexy knitwear, and instantly memorable for their lairy, no-holds-barred, anarchic live shows.
A group that is both perpetually on the move, ever-evolving and joyously independent, they have played close to 1300 side- splitting shows to date, and have brought smiles and belly- laughs to audiences across the UK; from Barnsley to Barnstaple, from Glastonbury to Glasgow. They continue to wow audiences with a fine selection of their greatest hits, including the likes of “Jump Ararnd”, “The Lady In Greggs”, "How Deep Is Your Glove?", "Paint 'em Back", "Goat Yoga", and “If I Could Punch A Face... It’d Be Justin Bieber’s”.
The Bar-Steward Sons of Val Doonican can’t wait to bring their shindig to The Beehive for their 18th Birthday and they promise that they WILL rock you... but gently!!
They deserve the reputation they have earned as one of the festival scene's hottest bookings."
