A Touch of Class

From Rags to Riches, Rhythm to Ragtime, enjoy a real ‘Touch of Class’ at Hindolveston

A humorous musical glimpse into the great British class system promises a delightful and whimsical evening at Hindolveston Village Hall on Saturday 11th October at 8pm, with support from the arts and community development charity Creative Arts East.

Long before the world of bankers’ bonuses, Downton Abbey and Eastenders, the fascinating subjects of money and class have provided a wealth of songwriting material, comedy inspiration and social comment.

This trio of incredibly gifted and versatile musicians take the audience on a thoroughly entertaining guided tour both upstairs and down, with songs ranging from music hall to folk and pop, and including classics from Noel Coward, Bessie Smith, Jake Thackray, Marilyn Monroe, Ray Davies and Victoria Wood.

‘A Touch of Class’ reflects on the very British way of how we love to look up – or down – at each other in this hilarious, and enlightening stroll through a century of songs about high society and low life, of money makers, gold diggers and penny pinchers in this lovely mix of musical musings!

You can see ‘A Touch of Class’ at Hindolveston Village Hall on Saturday 11th October at 8pm This event is organised in partnership with Creative Arts East with funding by The Esmée Fairbairn

Foundation, Norfolk County Council and North Norfolk District Council.
