Rose Opera presents Hänsel and Gretel

Saturday 14 November, Normansfield Theatre, 7pm.

Step into the enchanted forest with Rose Opera's magical new production of Hänsel und Gretel. Humperdinck's much-loved opera brings the classic fairy tale to life with a glorious score, unforgettable characters, fairies, witches and, of course, a gingerbread house. Beneath the magic lies a timeless story of courage, family and the choices that help us tell right from wrong. Colourful, theatrical and full of wonder, this is a production for families, opera lovers and anyone who believes in the power of a great story.

Pentire

Friday 13 November, The Fighting Cocks, Doors Open: 7pm.

ENTIRE bring their indie anthems and new material to an intimate show at The Fighting Cocks, Kingston

Pentire are an indie band who make pop songs for the post-jangle generation through the smiles and sweat of the mosh pit. This Herefordshire four-piece tell beautifully crafted stories of student life, a small-town upbringing, and the innocence of youth.

Brought up on a diet of The Killers, Paolo Nutini and Stereophonics, frontman and principal songwriter Jack formed a band with guitarist Owen in the sleepy town of Ross-on-Wye. The two friends met drummer Jake and bass player Jacob whilst at university, which cemented the four-piece that is now selling out venues across the UK.

With continued support from BBC Radio 1 Future Artists, Pentire sold out both of their previous two UK tours, have played festivals such as Truck, YNot, Kendal Calling, Isle of Wight & Splendour, and have toured with the likes of The Royston Club, junodream, Larkins and milk.

All Ages Matinee: Her Head's On Fire, Back Teeth and Big Shipping!

Join us for an all ages matinee featuring Her Head's On Fire, Back Teeth and Big Shipping! 2PM to 5PM – Please note under 18's must be supervised.

Her Head's On Fire is a fierce quartet with an impressive pedigree serving up heart-seeking post-hardcore and emotive rock with enlivening riffs and melodies. The indie rock supergroup offers their strangeness to beauty with Strange Desires, their sophomore effort and follow-up to their debut, College Rock & Clove Cigarettes. Strange Desires deepens and expands on their first release. It has moments reminiscent of late '80s New Wave, early '90s indie, and post-hardcore peppered with poetic oddities that make the band's music memorable.
