Stuck at home and put to work by her spoiled Step-Sisters, Cinderella's life is dreary and dull.

This enchanting ballet by The Royal Ballet's Founding Choreographer Frederick Ashton is a theatrical experience for all the family and will transport you into an ethereal world where a sprinkling of fairy dust makes dreams come true.

This is a quote from the back of the Beatles 4th album “When, in a generation or so, a radio-active, cigar-smoking child, picnicking on Saturn, asks you what the Beatle affair was all about – ‘Did you actually know them?’ – don’t try to explain all about the long hair and the screams! Just play their music.”
With sheer joy and energy Upbeat Beatles will take you on a journey through the earth-shattering sounds of the FAB 4!
Throw away all your inhibitions!
No band does it better than the Upbeat Beatles!

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.
In 2020, David decided to leave the band and very sadly passed away in 2023, he will be sorely missed...
Chris, Chris and Julie will be keeping the Christmas Aggie spirit alive and working as a trio celebrating 22 years together again this year.
Although their albums accompany the putting up of a thousand Christmas trees throughout Britain and around the globe as their reputation reaches further afield, it is, without question, their magical live performances that have endeared them to an ever-growing audience (tickets were again being sold for this year's tour as the curtain fell last year).
Christmas, as they say, starts with...... St Agnes Fountain... Fa la la la la la la la la!
Chris, Chris and Julie intend to do just that, keeping the Christmas Aggie spirit alive and touring as a trio celebrating 23 years together with some new material, those old Aggie classics and a doff of the fedora to David
Although the albums accompany the putting up of a thousand Christmas trees throughout Britain and around the globe as their reputation reaches further afield, it is, without question, their magical live performances that have endeared them to an ever-growing audience (tickets were again being sold for this year's tour as the curtain fell last year).
Chris While vocals, guitar, bodhran, dulcimer, banjo, darbuka and percussion.
Julie Matthews vocals, piano, guitar, accordion and gazouki
