SUMMARY:Cinema Screening: Anatomy of a fall (15)
DESCRIPTION:For the past year\, Sandra\, her husband Samuel\, and their 11-year-old son Daniel have lived a secluded life in a remote town in the French Alps. When Samuel is found dead in the snow below their chalet\, the police question whether he was murdered or committed suicide. Samuel’s suspicious death is presumed murder\, and Sandra becomes the main suspect.\nWhat follows is not just an investigation into the circumstances of Samuel’s death but an unsettling psychological journey into the depths of Sandra and Samuel’s conflicted relationship. \nCritic reviews: \n“This whole film has a wizardry to it which you’ll be thinking about for days.” The Telegraph \n“What you take away from Anatomy of a Fall is largely up to you\, but it’s a thoroughly engrossing case study.” The Wall Street Journal

SUMMARY:Live Music: Dr Jazz and The Cheshire Cats
DESCRIPTION:Dr Jazz and the Cheshire Cats present an evening of swinging big band sounds to get you dancing the night away. Look forward to classic big band numbers from Duke Ellington\, Benny Goodman\, Glenn Miller and many more\, as well as hits from British bands including Ivy Benson and Ted Heath and even some Latin jazz surprises along the way. Completing the line up are two fantastic vocalists in songs made famous by Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra. \nHere’s a taste of what you can expect:  \n \nDr Jazz and the Cheshire Cats big band was formed in 2002 by musical director Catherine Tackley\, Professor of Music at the University of Liverpool. Although the band is based and rehearses in Lymm\, Cheshire\, players come from across the North West region. Featuring two vocalists\, the band has a wide repertoire\, with a particular reputation for stylish performances of classic swing. As a result\, the band is in high demand to play for vintage dancing. Concerts\, weddings\, parties\, balls and functions all feature in a typical year in Dr Jazz’s calendar. \nIn 2022 the band celebrated its twentieth year with a concert in the new Tung Auditorium in Liverpool. Highlights from the past two decades include performances at venues as diverse as the Royal Northern College of Music\, Tatton Park\, the Troxy in London and Invisible Wind Factory in Liverpool as well as tours to Ireland\, Cornwall and London. \n  \n

You can contact Karen by email on info@artbykarennolan.co.uk \n Please send your contributions by Tuesday 7th May.\n \nThe workshop is free to attend and you can drop-in at any time.
