SUMMARY:The Maggie Wall
DESCRIPTION:Due to the extended RED warning for Johnshaven and South Aberdeenshire\, we have decided to cancel this performance.\nThe safety of you as our faithful audience\, our volunteers and artists is the top priority.\nDue to The Maggie Wall tour dates\, we are uncertain if we can reschedule. We will let you know of any developments.\nWe apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding during these challenging times.\nPlease stay safe\, and let’s hope Storm Babet passes soon.\n  \nThis new play from Martin McCormick was inspired by a monument near Dunning called ‘The Maggie Wall’\, the site of a mysterious grave to a woman tried and executed in the 17th century for witchcraft. It’s a collection of stones about 20 feet high\, bearing the words in white lettering – “Maggie Wall burnt here 1657 as a witch”. \nThe Maggie Wall explores the vulnerability of women and injustices suffered by them in a patriarchal and closed community and resonates with contemporary experiences\, as well as reminding us of a chapter of Scottish and British history in which many people\, predominately women\, were accused\, tried and killed as suspected witches.

SUMMARY:Just An Ordinary Lawyer
DESCRIPTION:* Due to unforeseen circumstances\, we regrettably have to cancel this show. Apologies for any inconvenience caused. We do hope to bring this show to the North East at a future date * \n  \nThe British Empire was trying desperately to hold on to its colonial possessions by any means … and the foul would often override the fair. \nNigerian Tunji Sowande quietly breaks through multiple barriers to become Britain’s first Black judge in 1978. Also a fine concert singer and keen cricket lover\, he muses on international politics and history as they affect the Black world from Africa to the USA and Britain\, from the point of view of one who would rather watch sports and spread love and peace through the medium of song. \nRecalling heroic sporting achievements alongside epoch-defining political events\, Tayo Aluko delivers “a masterclass in performance art\, research and history. \nJUST AN ORDINARY LAWYER – A play\, with songs. Written and performed by Tayo Aluko. With live piano accompaniment. Directed by Amanda Huxtable. Designed by Emma Williams.

SUMMARY:Arthur Coates & Kerran Cotterell
DESCRIPTION:Arthur Coates & Kerran Cotterell are carving out a name for themselves with their unique style\, rooted in Quebecois traditional music fused with songs from around the British Isles and North America. Their creative choices and syncopated melodic rhythms are a testament to their talent and great synergy. These multi-instrumentalists and vocalists are making music that is thoughtful\, conscious\, and driven. They excite\, motivate\, inspire\, comfort\, and spread love and joy to all those that hear them. \nArthur Coates is an acclaimed UK award-nominated musician who began playing the Violin at the age of 7. He later attended the ‘Aberdeen City Music School where he studied Violin and Piano. Arthur eventually found his calling for Quebecois traditional music which he continues to chase. He released his debut solo album ‘Focus’ in June 2019\, a project that heavily featured original material. \nKerran Cotterell is an energetic and melodic Guitar player who leans on his vast and varied musical experience to create timeless works of art that are refreshingly unique but are still deeply grounded in traditional folk music. He has garnered plaudits having performed on the main stage of the Cambridge Folk Festival\, as well as the BBC Proms in the Royal Albert Hall. \nTogether\, Arthur & Kerran produce a versatile mix of sound through instrumentals and song featuring various instruments\, including Fiddle\, Guitar\, Bouzouki & Feet Percussion. They create a sound that is often surprising to the ear but remains true to traditional music’s roots.

SUMMARY:Budapest Cafe Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:Budapest Cafe Orchestra play a blistering barrage of traditional folk and gypsy-flavoured music from across the Balkans and Russia\, Klezmer laments\, Romanian Doinas\, Hungarian Czadas and their own unique re-imaginings of some of the biggest tunes ever written by the classical greats.  The Budapest Café Orchestra was established in 2009 by British composer and violinist\, Christian Garrick\, and led by him\, have won legions of fans with their magical and infectious performances. \nA small but impeccably formed orchestra of just four players\, the BCO combines violin\, guitar\, accordion\, double bass\, saz & balalaika to dazzling effect\, creating an awesome aural alchemy normally only characteristic of far bigger ensembles. Two of the country’s celebrated international soloists revel at the heart of proceedings. Accordionist exemplar Eddie Hession is a supreme accordion champion of Great Britain. In his illustrious career\, he has accompanied Luciano Pavarotti\, Placido Domingo\, Jose Carreras and Chris Rea.  Christian Garrick is one of the world’s most celebrated jazz violinists. He has played with the likes of Dame Cleo Laine & Sir John Dankworth\, Wynton Marsalis\, Nigel Kennedy\, Bireli Lagrene and Caro Emerald. Another member of the Orchestra is one of Russia’s most enigmatic musical exports. The Sultan is played expertly by Adrian Zolotuhin\, a master of the strummed strings of domra\, balalaika\, guitar and saz.  Veteran bass-man Kelly Cantlon has been in the business of laying down the low notes for many moons. Kelly found fame as a Vagabond with northern soul sensations Jimmy James and the Vagabonds. \nEvoking vivid images of Tzigane fiddle maestros\, Budapest café life and gypsy campfires – plus a few surprises along the way – hugely entertaining\, immense skill and profound musicianship\, a show by the BCO is good enough to make you want to book that holiday down the Danube!
