Beyond the Barricade 4 February 2023 7:30pm £24.00 Lanark Memorial Hall
Beyond the Barricade, the UK’s longest running musical theatre concert tour features past principal performers from Les Miserables. It delivers over two hours of the best of Broadway and the West End, ending of course with a stunning finale from Les Mis. This brand new show will include many of the best numbers that have made Beyond the Barricade the most popular musical theatre concert in the country.
The concert features David Fawcett (Valjean), Andy Reiss (Enjolras & Resident Director for the National Tour of Les Miserables), Katie Leeming (Eponine) and Poppy Tierney (Cosette). Together with a live band they capture the feel of the original orchestrations of the chosen musicals.
To this day every musical note is still played and sung live – very rare indeed. Beyond the Barricade gives musical theatre songs a bold concert format treatment – but with the conviction and intention to deliver the material as if the audience are watching the original performance.
Available to book online or by calling Lanark Memorial Hall on 01555 673199.

An Evening with Alastair McDonald 10 February 2023 8:00pm £12.00 / £10.00 concession East Kilbride Arts Centre
Alastair McDonald has been a performer on a full-time basis since 1970. He has built up a successful career not only in his native Scotland; on numerous occasions he has been invited to take his own style of musical entertainment to locations as diverse as America, Canada, Germany, Denmark, Israel, Thailand, East Africa and the Arab Emirates.
Never one to be easily pigeon-holed, he is probably best known as "...the folk singing jazz banjo-player from Scotland..." except for those areas in which he's known as "...the Scottish jazz banjo-playing folk singer..." !
Alastair's radio and TV credits are too numerous to list, likewise his recordings, and you will find him equally at home in a jazz club, folk club, variety show, theatre, concert hall or Church - not because he tailors his performance to the venue of the moment, but rather believes that a solid, entertaining, wholesome, uncompromising, thought provoking repertoire should know no bounds or require an apology wherever it may be performed.
Available to book online or by calling East Kilbride Arts Centre on 01355 261000.
