Message from Mike Walker
We regret that we have had to suspend this Concert due to reasons beyond our control. It’s a great pity as the Conductor and the band had been working on the programme for some months, but we hope that it may be possible for them to come and play for us later in the year.
If you have bought tickets we are making arrangements to refund your money.
Thank you for your support and understanding, and the rest of the our Spring Programme will continue as advertised.
Wishing you a Happy New Year.
Mike Walker

We are delighted to welcome Shrewsbury Concert Band who will be presenting a programme of music from the STAGE AND SCREEN. It is the time when we want to invigorate ourselves for a New Year. Yes we know there going to be problems but put these aside and come and enjoy the night!

Conductor Ken Lumley told me that he was in Jersey when a similar programme was presented, and that some members of the audience came dressed as their favourite Character. They had an entertaining night and quite a bit of fun. So if Chicago was listed you might to come as Roxie, or Pirates of the Caribbean then you might want to come as Captain Jack Sparrow.

Programme outline

These are some of the probable pieces: 

  • Bond…James Bond,
  • Broadway Center Stage,
  • Chicago ,
  • Colditz March,
