  • We Are So Excited to Welcome You Back
    WE ARE SO EXCITED TO WELCOME YOU BACK I couldn’t be happier to finally be writing this welcome message to you. It’s been an interesting time since my last one; our centenary came and went; our stage was filled not with performers but emergency food provisions; and our team were meeting colleagues through computer screens rather than greeting guests in our beautiful building. We know it’s been a hard year for everyone else too and we’re so excited to welcome you back to experience the magic of theatre once more with this packed programme. It’s only right that after the 100th year of this local treasure, our first season back should be filled with national ones, so we’re delighted to be welcoming cricketing legend Sir Geoffrey Boycott, much-loved music star Tony Christie and the fantastically funny Jasper Carrott amongst a host of brilliant acts this autumn. Fans of folk and country in particular are in for double delight as both The Shires and Seth Lakeman will be gracing our stage while there are also appearances from Elkie Brooks, Eddi Reader, Lee Mead, Michael Portillo and even the brilliant Jason Manford. Lastly, if you missed our fantastic centenary exhibition on stage this summer, there’s an extra chance to see it and find out about the Palace’s fascinating story at our Heritage Open Day event. Looking forward to seeing you all again soon! Carys Coulton-Jones Theatre Manager YOUR SAFETY We know that many of our guests will still be a little nervous about visiting after so long.

  • Review for MARYPORT BLUES FESTIVAL (Main Stage) @ Maryport, Cumbria 29Th - 31St July 2016 by Rosy Greer - Lancashire Blues Archive
    Review for MARYPORT BLUES FESTIVAL (Main Stage) @ Maryport, Cumbria 29th - 31st July 2016 http://maryportblues.org/ By Rosy Greer - Lancashire Blues Archive Another year of this great festival set in the charming fishing port of Maryport, on the west coast of Cumbria. With Main Stage marquee hosting some cracking blues makers plus an Outside Stage with a mix of music and superb Trail venues throughout the town all added to the great atmosphere. Staying within the bounds of the Main Stage this year, we were delighted with class line up. Friday Kicking off on Friday evening were The Mighty Bosscats, a 4 piece blues band from Essex. Fronted by guitarist singer songwriter Richard Townsend, they had a leaning towards country Texas blues. An excellent band to kick start the festival. http://www.richardtownend.com/ The Mighty Bosscats Following were 3 piece rock band from Manchester, Blackballed. With their own style of 'groove rock', they are certainly a great stage band and gave a high energy entertaining performance. http://www.blackballedband.com/ Blackballed The penultimate act for Friday were The Stevie Nimmo Trio. Always a crowd puller and it was good to see the Marquee so busy. Playing classic blues rock, in Stevie’s own style with a full on sound. Excellent guitar work as usual with superb bass. http://www.stevienimmo.com/ Stevie Nimmo Trio The final band of the evening were The Ian Siegal Band, a favourite in Maryport. Ian played his own individual style of country blues with his full band. A great sound showcasing many Siegal classics.
