The Guild of Players are delighted to welcome M&N Productions to the Theatre Royal Dumfries for this fundraising show. Profits from this production will directly support the Theatre Royal's 'Keep Theatre Live' campaign to raise £30,000.
From 1965 to 1968 there wasn’t a bigger radio programme in Britain than the ground-breaking Round the Horne. For half-an-hour every Sunday afternoon, audiences of up to 15 million people would gather around the wireless to listen to Kenneth Horne and his merry crew get up to all sorts of mischief.
Accomplished soloist, perceptive director and close collaborator with the SCO, British violinist Anthony Marwood makes a welcome return for music to captivate you and – perhaps – surprise you in this exciting programme.
The programme:
Hamish MacCunn – Overture: Land of the Mountain and the Flood
Max Bruch – Scottish Fantasy, Op.46
John Blackwood McEwen – Solway, Symphony no.5 in C# minor
Kick off the festive season in style with the sensational Down for the Count Swing Orchestra, as they head to Easterbrook Hall, Dumfries for their much-loved annual show, Swing Into Christmas!
