Centre Stage: Eddie and the Gold Tops
Centre Stage: Eddie and the Gold Tops

Barrow was really lucky with its three allocated Centre Stage shows this year. After the delightful Roll in the Hay (do you remember Lilian Archer?) and the Shoo Shoo Babies (what a Christmas party!), we have a third treat in store on Friday May 18th. It will be in Humphrey Perkins Community Centre,CotesRoad,LE12 8JU, Barrow as usual and will start at 7.30pm. More »

Tickets: £8 (prepaid £7) or £7 concessions ( prebooked £6). A family ticket (2 + 2) will cost £24 prepaid. Book them by phoning Judith on 07718153117 or visit Barrow's Paper Shop or email judithrodgers155@gmail.com.

Written and directed by Kate Bramley (brilliant Badapple Theatre) it's a musical comedy for all the family. It's the swinging 60s and every village has a band determined to hit the big time. Eddie, a much loved milkman has fulfilled his father's deathbed promise never to miss a delivery but he dreams of stardom and success. Suddenly things are on the up! His songs are heading up the charts and if he can get there by tonight he'll be on Top of The Pops... Will Eddie's dreams be thwarted as his career takes a churn for the worse? » Less
