Dire Streets – Brothers in Arms 35th Anniversary Tour
To celebrate the 35th Anniversary of the release of Brothers in Arms, Dire Streets – Europe’s most critically acclaimed Dire Straits tribute act – will be playing the album live in its entirety.
Dire Streets are six of the UK’s top tribute musicians, recreating the distinctive style of Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits with an attention to detail no other tribute can match.
The 2020 Brothers in Arms Anniversary Tour delivers a two hour show including a live performance of the album from start to finish, as well as all the classic hits from the band’s other studio albums and legendary live performances.
From the classic rock riffs of Money for Nothing, the smooth jazz-tinged flavours of Latest Trick, and foot-tapping classics like Walk of Life to the epic guitar anthem title track, Brothers in Arms is a true classic album.
WHY? Join Dire Streets as they celebrate one of the greatest British rock albums of all time

Oldilocks and the 3 Bears
The first of three shows coming to the Norden Farm stage for Christmas 2020.
Oldilocks finds a teddy bear in the park and remembers a delicious bowl of porridge she tasted years ago in the woods. Something else happened but she can’t quite remember what… so she sets off for the forest.
Join Oldilocks as she sets off for another adventure followed by a scruffy old pigeon. Will she find the bears' house and what will happen then?
A wonderfully funny and warmhearted celebration of the classic story, starring a naughty old lady who looks very familiar… and 3 funny bears who love their breakfast.
Expect to be spellbound by lovingly crafted puppets, music and some steaming bowls of porridge!

Pinocchio
The third in a series of three shows coming to the Norden Farm stage for Christmas 2020.
The objects of a carpenter’s workshop bring to life the tale of the puppet that wants to be a real boy, and the puppet-maker who wants to be a real father. A one man show starring Steve Tiplady, as Geppetto.
Pinocchio is carved on stage, brushes become a fox and the shadow of two saws transforms into a giant shark. An element of improvisation makes each performance unique to its audience.
Puppetry, shadows, illusion and especially composed music combine to create a show with something for all ages; it’s inventive, visually and verbally witty with a big heart.

Royal Opera House Live: Giselle (12A)
Encore screening of the 2016 production from the Royal Opera House.
The greatest of all Romantic ballets, Peter Wright’s production of Marius Petipa’s classic is a tale of betrayal, the supernatural and love that transcends death. Starring Marianela Nuñez and Vadim Muntagirov.
The role of Giselle provides the dancer with many technical and dramatic challenges, from the character’s early love to her poignant descent into madness and her final gesture of forgiveness from beyond the grave. The first act of the ballet is filled with historical detail and rustic colour. By contrast, the second, ‘white’ act plunges the audience into an eerie moonlit forest haunted by the ethereal Wilis.
WHY? With its combination of memorable story and exquisite choreography, Giselle is the perfect way to discover classical ballet
Run time 135 mins.
