THEATRE WEDDING

The best show in town

G

lo and Adrian Simmons took centre stage when they got hitched at the Liverpool Empire.

They met when Glo put an advert in the local paper. “I met a lot of frogs before my prince came along, but I really did know straight away that he was the one,” she says. “He was kind, intelligent and loving, and we made a good team. I had no doubt at all about going down on one knee.”

Charity worker Glo had been widowed and Adrian, senior project manager for Bovis Lend Lease, had also been married before – but they were both determined not to go down the ‘boring’ registry office route.

Both singers, the fact they were mad about theatre gave Glo an idea about a venue. Her best friend Bill Elms was marketing manager at the Liverpool Empire and he specially obtained a licence for weddings there.

The production showing near the date they had set was Crazy For You. “It was perfect,” says 26 Your Move

Glo. “We asked if we could use the set and amazingly got the go-ahead.”

Their wedding day was a dazzling production in its own right. The backdrop was a scene from 42nd Street, actress Eithne Browne was master of

ceremonies, three members of opera group BOST sang show songs, and guests in evening dress formed the ‘audience’ in the stalls. “Whenever I think back on our wedding now it conjures up something very unique that showed everyone how

very much we loved and cared for each other.” says Glo. “It was definitely the best show in town!”

HOT TOPIC

Pack your trunk

Having a ball

High end nuptials Gemma and Shaun Ray had a wedding with a view – as the first couple to get hitched at the top of Blackpool Tower.

“We did it to have something to tell the grandkids,” confesses Gemma, a former radio DJ, who lives with her telecoms engineer husband in Melling.

They met at music festival Creamfields in 2007 and tied the knot a year later.

Flowers, carpet, chairs and 120 guests were transported to the 380ft Tower Top via two lifts.

“When the celebrant – who was my radio co-host Adam – asked if anyone knew any reason we should not get married there was a 79 second wait. They had worked out just how long it took for someone to climb up the tower. Someone at the bottom waited with a walkie

talkie to radio through if someone arrived.” Added Gemma: “It was the longest 79 seconds of my life.”

As soon as the pair were pronounced man and wife, they looked out of the window to see staff had carved ‘Gemma and Shaun’ in huge letters in the sand of the beach below. “It made me fill up with tears,” recalls Gemma. “People say your wedding day is one you will never ever forget but I don’t think there’s any chance whatsoever of us forgetting we got hitched at the top of the Blackpool Tower.”

Red’s fan Mark Hendy and partner Ang got hitched overlooking hallowed turf – at Liverpool Football Club.

“Every bride dreams of the perfect wedding day,” says, Ang. “My husband is a huge Liverpool fan, and all I wanted was to give him a lovely day that wasn’t all focused around me.”

The couple’s pageboys wore full team strips, the bride wore a Liverpool garter and a wedding ring embellished with a ruby and diamond LFC insignia was specially commissioned for railway worker Mark.

“He was smiling from ear to ear all day,” recalls Ang. “There are few men that admit their wedding day was the best day of their life!”

Suzanne and Mick Jones, from the Wirral, got married at Chester Zoo – where a very special friend could be part of the proceedings.

The couple met when she was assistant retail manager at the Zoo shop and he was the head elephant keeper.

“Getting married where you work wouldn’t be the perfect venue for a lot of people, but we knew how beautiful the grounds were around Oakfield Manor – where the Zoo boardroom is - and it made it very easy for all our friends to attend,” says Suzanne.

One friend they were near was Sheba – Mick’s favourite elephant.

“They go back a long way,” laughs Suzanne. “Before he met me his pet name for her was Mrs Jones. He would have had Sheba as a bridesmaid if he could.

“Sadly she has since passed away, but having her in our wedding day photographs is a lovely way to remember her.”

Hot off the press LIVERPOOL’S LATEST NEWS

Spring on the waterfront Tall Ships, a Shanty Festival, regattas and historic canal boats will all be part of a maritime spectacular on the River Mersey, running from Friday, April 29, to Sunday, May 8.

Spring on the Waterfront is a free ten-day festival packed full of more than 100 events for the whole family on land and water. Some of the world’s most famous Tall Ships, including Astrid and STA Stavros S Niarchos, which is the first new tall ship built in Britain for more than 12 years, will be docked for the festival.

As the event launches on the same day as a very special wedding, organisers have made sure visitors will not miss out, with a Royal Wedding salute performed by the historic canal boats between 11.30am and midday. The Royal Wedding will be shown on a giant screen at Liverpool ONE, with a street party.

Two exciting regattas will also see yachts from all over the North

West competing on the Mersey – the Liverpool Kindred Clubs Regatta (29 April - 2 May), and the Royal Mersey Spring Regatta (7 - 8 May) which will both see multihulls, nobbies and yachts compete for first place.

The Shanty Festival, where performers will take to a floating

stage in Salthouse Dock and the quayside, will be filled with music from Liverpool’s golden age of sailing ships.

Water lovers can make the most of free taster sessions of dinghy sailing, windsurfing, wakeboarding, kayaking, canoeing and paddleboards at the Watersports

Centre, and for those just wanting to take in the view canal boats will take over Salthouse Dock.

For full details and times of all the events taking place during the festival visit www.liverpoolonthewaterfront. co.uk/spring

DECADE OF PALM HOUSE

From a crumbling glasshouse to a restored Liverpool icon, Sefton Park Palm House is celebrating 10 years of family fun, weddings and music this September, with a host of upcoming events.

BEFORE... ...AFTER

lmhouse Sefton Park Pa

It’s hard to imagine that more than a decade ago, the centrepiece of Liverpool’s finest park was no more than crumbling facade - until a community of helpers stepped to bring the crowning glory back to the park.

In these last 10 years, the Preservation Trust has worked to preserve and nurture the love for this place, keeping it open and free to visit, extending its opening hours in the summer so the warm barmy evenings can be enjoyed.

Elizabeth-Anne Williams, the director at the Palm House, has

been there from the beginning, guiding the venue through nearly one million visitors, more than 500 events – from Easter egg hunts to tea dances and concerts, and hundreds of weddings and corporate events.

As part of the anniversary, they’ve collected a number of interviews from people involved in the Palm House, and are displaying the stories as an alternative history at the Palm House stage - the stories are filled with moments of love for the venue.

“My favourite moments are arriving in the morning, after a cycle ride through the park and seeing the sun shining on the glass through the misty early morning frost or leaving at night, looking back, taking a moment to marvel at the lit up glory that is Sefton Park Palm House,” says ElizabethAnne Williams.

Construction underway on Keepmoat Homes

Work progressing well at Regency Park, Bootle

Construction work is underway on eight new Keepmoat Homes developments in the North West - with 200 new homes expected in the next 12 months.

House hunters looking for affordable homes across Merseyside can expect new developments in Knowsley, Sefton, Southport, and the Wirral, as well as continued development at current sites in Bootle and Knowsley.

David Wroe, Regional Director, said: “The housing sector continues to face significant

challenges and our sales success and growth is testament to a lot of hard work by everyone at Keepmoat Homes. It demonstrates that we are forging partnerships which work and building the right product for the right price.”

Work is now well underway at key Mersey regeneration sites in Anfield, Bootle and Rainhill, with construction also set to begin on a new phase of development at Hamilton Place in North Huyton.

Recent key projects to be secured include plans for up to 500 new homes on six sites across the Wirral over the next 10-15 years.

Together with other sites across

the North West offering a mix of private sale and affordable housing for rent and shared ownership, they will deliver just under 1,000 new homes and represent a £72m investment in the North West region.

The 146 homes built and sold during 2010/11 represents a 37 per cent increase on the previous year and with land for an additional 350 new plots contracted over the same period, further significant growth is planned for the next few years.

For more information visit www.keepmoathomes.co.uk or telephone 0151 728 1250.

GOOD MOVES

Following the official launch of the show apartments at the prestigious Mann Island development, the toasting was made even easier by the creation of three bespoke cocktails in honour of the new black granite-clad buildings.

Liverpool bar Palm Sugar Lounge created the three cocktails to celebrate the launch, named Latitude and Longitude after the two residential buildings in the development, and A Greater Degree, which takes its name from the marketing strapline of the apartments.

“We were thrilled by Liverpool’s top bar creating a range of special cocktails and even more delighted with the results,” said Peter Vela Countryside’s regional sales and marketing director.

“It’s not often that you can serve drinks named after and mixed specifically for the development you have on the market.”

Longitude is based around Grey Goose vodka, Tanqueray gin and Cointreau with the intriguing addition of Earl Grey tea. Latitude combines Sazerac rye with Grand Marnier, while A Greater Degree’s ingredients include Patron Café

Good Moves estate agents has been making good moves of its own recently by taking on some new staff, and planning the refurbishment of its Woolton office - just in time for the company’s first birthday celebrations in July of this year.

Mann Island Cocktails - L-R, Latitude, Greater Degree & Longitude Jane Murray-Wood

XO coffee tequila and Chambord raspberry liqueur. The Mann Island Cocktails can be purchased exclusively at Palm Sugar Lounge, Liverpool ONE. Mann Island’s residential offer comprises 376 apartments housed in two black granite-clad buildings at the heart of Liverpool’s historic waterfront. One-bedroom apartments are available from £120,000.

The sales and marketing suite is in the glazed area connecting the two buildings, which is known as the Equator. The sales office and show apartments are open from 11 am to 6pm daily.

HAVE YOUR SAY

YOUR VIEWS ON BIG ISSUES

Becoming a prince or princess is a childhood dream.

Your Move found out what some Liverpool youngsters would do if they were Royalty for the day.

“I would like to live in a castle.

I would have cereal for breakfast then I would go out somewhere nice and eat cakes. I would still love my family and my toys, especially Fluffy the Dog.”

Harriet, 6, Childwall “If I was a king I would go to London and play rugby, or football for Chelsea. My friend Callum would come with me. I wouldn’t get married though.”

“If I was a princess I would make myself a really big castle and have a treasure box with gold and silver crowns and necklaces and lots of money in it.

Everyone else would have to clean my castle. In the daytime I would lie down and be lazy and watch Charlie and Lola and Spongebob on the TV all day. ”

Mia (left), 6, Wavertree

Liam, 4, Old Swan

“If I were king there would be no school and everyone could have a computer and play on it all day. I would live in London, I’d have a treehouse and I’d have pizza and chips for tea. I would make everyone be nice to me. If they weren’t it would be ‘off with their heads’. And my sister would have to stop hugging me and squeezing me all the time.”

Dylan, 10, Wavertree

“If I was a queen I would buy lots of shoes and dresses, in pink.

I’d go to the zoo and I’d take my mum and my brother. For tea I would eat Chinese and I would go to bed late, at 9pm.”

Sydney, 8, West Derby

“I would have lots and lots of toys and all the Barbies there are, all for myself. I would play dollies all day and I would have a horse. I would buy a car for my mum.”

“I would make every single piece of chocolate in the world free. I would go anywhere whenever I wanted by helicopter, perhaps to Italy. I wouldn’t go to school, I’d play with the pets I’d bought.

I’ve already got a lizard but I’d get some horses. And if they existed I’d get a dragon.”

Zizi (left), 5, Toxteth

Niva, 11, Clubmoor

Lehtu (right), 7, Toxteth

“If I was a princess I would go to sleep when I want to, instead of at 8 o'clock. I would live in a castle and eat peanut butter sandwiches. My mum could live in the castle with me.”

A WHITE WEDDING FOR LIVERPOOL SWEETHEARTS

A MARRIAGE MADE IN WOOLTON

B 5

ride Helen Sharrock and groom Chris Bosward gave guests a beautiful day to remember when they tied the knot in Woolton. The traditional ceremony took place at noon at the village’s St Peter’s Church, and afterwards the newly married couple and their friends and family moved to Mere Golf & Country Club in Cheshire to enjoy a sunshine-filled reception.

Helen looked breathtaking in a strapless white gown with embroidered bodice and cascading skirt, and her deep pink bouquet matched the dresses and posies of her two young bridesmaids.

Both bride and groom would agree that for a dream wedding day, being royal isn’t required.

Julie Langan, a teacher at Woolton infants, and Anthony Langan, a teacher at King George V College in Southport, bought a one-bedroom apartment at Mann Island, following the show apartment unveiling earlier this month. The couple, who have been married for 19 years, bought the apartment as an investment for their retirement, renting it out until then.

Prices start from £120,000 for a one-bedroom apartment.

The kitchen came with a black finish, so we have designed the open plan front room around it; black with touches of red, and very simple. I spotted the cabinet at John Lewis some time ago, and it was perfect for the room. The picture of the monkey is from St Ives, called the Dawn of Aesthetics.

We were just looking at flats, and Mann Island kept popping up, and we thought: ‘Gosh, the position must be amazing with Liverpool ONE just around the corner.’ We went to the show house opening, and loved the position so much we decided to take the biggest risk we have ever taken.

We are going to be renting it out and maybe in a few years, once our children are grownup, we can move in here.

Friends who have visited us are stunned by the inside of Mann Island. It’s all black outside, and all white inside.

Our family home in Woolton is over 200 years old, so the furnishings are more traditional. This place is the opposite, with a contemporary, sharp look.

The mirrors all reflect the beautiful views of the river, and the interior design borrows from the outside environment; the green carpet borrows from the greenery outside and everything is reflective, for light and space.

CALL NOW

We were in Venice a couple of years ago and stayed in a very modern hotel, which is where the idea for a clear table and chairs came from. The masks are also from Venice, adding a touch of colour to the hallway.

The bathroom is very big, almost as big as the bedroom, with a powerful shower.

Everything is very modern, and well designed.

The courtyard gives a sense of community; it is very inclusive of your neighbours, but still remains private. The bedroom is a good size, facing out onto the balcony and courtyard - where you can have breakfast or sit with friends.

The bedroom is going to have blackout blinds to give a sense of privacy because it faces onto the courtyard.

The Pier Head used to be burgers and doughnuts and now it’s so classy and a nice place to live. It makes us proud to be part of such a development.

Macbeth will be the final major production for the Everyman Theatre before it closes the curtains on Saturday, July 2, for two years for a £28 million redevelopment. Actor David Morrissey will return to this stage for the first time in 30 years to play the doomed king in the bloody tragedy. The Liverpool-born actor talks to Your Move about training at the Everyman Youth Theatre and acting in the ‘Play That Shall Not Be Named’.

THE

SCOTTISH

KING

INTERVIEW BY DINA KARIM

H

ow does it feel to be back on The Everyman stage? This city and this play is quite weird for me, I used to run around the Everyman, the main theatre was very good to us as a youth theatre. We used to run up to the actors, while they were having their lunch, and bombard them with questions. The Everyman Youth Theatre was very important to me because it was where I first saw theatre, it was certainly where I first saw new writing and theatre that reflected the community, reflected what was going on in my city.

You are known for doing rigorous research for your roles - how does it feel playing a character with so many different versions? I think you have to approach it like any part rather than think of it as your place in an historical canon of having done it. You just have to take it like

it’s being done for the first time, so that it’s just a wonderful character. It’s such a great story so I just want to just tell that story and get involved in that character. The other thing about the play is that it represents a turbulent world and I feel that is where I live now as well, as I read the play it’s so similar to the developments I see on TV. Macbeth is quite a challenging role, with all the psychological drama of Shakespeare’s play, can you draw on any past roles to help you portray the king?

What I’ve tried to do all my life is to have as many various roles as possible, mixing it up. Macbeth is a challenge on many levels, but I’ve dipped my toes into that type of psychological person before. He is quite a tangible character as far as his ambition is concerned and his ruthlessness. I’m always ecstatically happy and proud whenever I go to any job really, and it’s mad that I just love going to work so it’s a privilege to play Macbeth.

The Everyman Theatre has been seminal in your acting career, tell us a little more. It’s quite an emotional time to be here, everything I learned about being an actor was in here. I grew up wanting to

be an actor but in a household that didn’t know anything about acting at all. It was like saying to my parents I wanted to be an astronaut, so they had no idea what to do because it was a profession they had no idea about. Then I told my cousin and he was going out with a girl who worked in the box office here and he mentioned the Everyman Youth Theatre and I was welcomed with open arms. It was the first time people took my idea of wanting to be an actor seriously because I was surrounded by actors and performers. I was in a part of Liverpool I didn’t know either, and I suddenly found this real cultural vibrancy with the music, writing and performance. So, to be back here performing in this particular play makes me feel a little like a grown-up which I haven’t felt for a long time - part of becoming an actor was so I didn’t have to grow up. Every brick in the wall is a moment, so it’s serendipity.

Macbeth will run at the Everyman

Theatre from May 6 to June 11.

VDinINtaIgNeG

Could you please help us to decide what would be the perfect wedding gift? We are a group of friends who have known each other since our student days! Two of our friends after knowing each other for 19 years, have decided to tie the knot. We would like to buy them a joint gift for their home, an item that wouldn’t be on a conventional wedding list, something unique, quirky and we guess memorable.

How about a pair of restored vintage dining chairs? These chairs are indeed memorable, and given that your friends are getting married this year what better way to celebrate the union, than with a pair of Union Jack chairs. The chairs are made by Pip and Pen and are sold by www.notonthehighstreet.com. Each panel of fabric is individually knitted and felted to create the perfect cover for each chair. This results in a highly textured, yet hard wearing, fabric that turns an old chair into an inventive and modern piece of furniture that would look great in any room. The fabric can take up to five weeks to prepare so I would definitely recommend that you order it now, as you wouldn’t want to have your friends waiting for this fantastic gift. www.notonthehighstreet.com

B U N T I NG I’m throwing a Royal Wedding party at my house on the 29th April for my friends and family, I’m so excited! My living/dining room is an open plan space, which makes it the perfect room to host my party. All the furnishings in the room are off white, except for my cushions and rug. If you were to add some temporary decorations to this space to welcome your friends and family, and to indulge in the celebration, what would you choose?

Any decorations that you choose to buy to celebrate the big day will certainly not be wasted.

With the Olympics just around the corner

DRINK -- TO --

THAT

We can’t wait to get married this summer, we didn’t want to have a wedding gift list with one retailer instead we are preparing one ourselves, with items we love from various sources. Ideally we would like to have a tea service on the list, but this is where we have hit a dead end. We just can’t find one we love to put on the list. Ideally we would like something fun and quirky with mugs instead of tea cups. Have you seen anything which would suit our requirements?

hopefully we will enjoy a year of national celebrations. No party would be complete without the traditional bunting, www.partypacks.co.uk has some great Union Jack cloth flag bunting, being fabric it’s perfect for indoor use and would certainly withstand a party or two! I also think the Hampton Union Jack cushions available at John Lewis are a great buy, they would look very patriotic on your off white sofa, I would team them with silk plain red and blue cushions, this would give a colourful but textural effect. Enjoy your celebrations.

I love the very eclectic and cheerful tea set made by Jensen, designed by Anouk Jansen, I think you would love it too. My Teapot and My Mug are available in eight different colour combinations.

Each brightly coloured item has a contrasting colour handle that matches another set. I think it would make the perfect addition to your Wedding List.

Disney store are hosting their own celebrations, with children invited to become a Prince or Princess for the day with crown decorating sessions, on the Friday and Saturday.

The latest Playhouse offering may be all about love, but in a very strange way. The latest play by award-winning writer Mike Bartlett, Love, Love, Love is a provocative and entertaining story that pitches the baby boomer generation against their children and demands to know where we go from here. The play is a wonderful look at the baby boomer generation as it retires, and finds the world full of trouble. Tickets from £10, from box office on 0151 709 4776.
