Prompt
start. A genuine one-of-a-kind performer,
Antony Hegarty shot to fame in 2005,
when I Am A Bird Now beat a host of
big names to win the prestigious Mercury
Music Prize. Since then, the Chichester-born,
New York-based singer with the extraordinary
voice has collaborated with everyone
from Lou Reed to Manhattan dance collective
Hercules & Love Affair, before
returning this year under his own
name with The Crying Light, a breathtaking
record about love, loss and the environment.
Exclusively for the Festival, Antony
is returning to his homeland for a
pair of special concerts. The singer
will be joined by the 36-piece Manchester
Camerata, performing new arrangements
by New York composer Nico Muhly of
songs from across his career and beyond.
And it will all take place in the
beautiful Manchester Opera House,
transformed for the evening by acclaimed
lighting designer Paul Normandale.
Book early or miss out on an unforgettable
night. Duration 110 mins including
one interval.

Have you ever been to a film musical and had the uncontrollable urge to burst into song? Sing-a-Long-a Annie continues the tradition of Irresistible Interactive Fun with a screening (with subtitles so everyone can join in) of the 1982 hit film starring Albert Finney, Tim Curry, Carol Burnett, a sweet little girl (in fact a whole orphanage-full) and a cute doggy. Add to that a fabulous score of great songs ("It's a Hard Knock Life", "Let's Go To The Movies", "You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile", "Easy Street" and of course "Tomorrow"), and the chance to wear a bald pate (Daddy Warbucks), an ill-fitting ginger wig (Annie) or The Biggest Smile in town (if you want to be fully-dressed) and you have a guaranteed great night out. Expect all the Sing-a-long-a regulars - free goody bag, magic moments, fancy dress competition and the chance to cheer, boo and hiss to your heart's content. And, if you can't get your costume together, remember, it's what you wear from ear to ear and not from head to toe that maaaatters. Fancy dress - It’s not compulsory to dress up but many people do and it really adds to the fun. Dip into the wardrobe of your imagination and surprise us with your creation. The show lasts 2 hours 30 mins. «
