Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain - SOLD OUT Tuesday 17 May
The Motown Show - Saturday 11 June
The Orchestra has seen over 9,000 days of ukulele action. It has been playing for one 40th of a millennium. The oldest and the best, it unites fans across the globe in celebration of "one plucking thing after another" on instruments bought for loose change. They have sixteenhandedly turned the world on to the ukulele. The Ukes appear on stage with one ukulele each, no gimmicks, no tricks, no vocal enhancers or overproduced wizardry, then proceed to tear the house down. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll never think about music in the same way, once you’ve seen and heard the Ukulele Orchestra. ‘Perfectly polished professionalism, threaded through with dry wit and wry humour’ - THE INDEPENDENT. - ÂŁ17.50 - 8pm (doors 7.15)
'How Sweet It Is' is the ultimate celebration of the sweet sound of MOTOWN. Now in its 9th successive year this stunning 100% live show combines first class music with the slickest choreography and an amazing orchestra to deliver truly outstanding performances for the best MOTOWN experience you will ever have. Over 50 Golden Years of MOTOWN music are remembered featuring songs from legendary artists such as The Temptations, Diana Ross, The Four Tops, Martha Reeves, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, The Supremes, The Jacksons, Mary Wells, The Isley Brothers and many, many more. Let's 'Get Ready'... to 'Go Loco...Down In Acapulco'. The UK's No1 MOTOWN production is guaranteed to have you dancing 'All Night Long'. Tickets ÂŁ18.50 7.30pm (doors 6.45)
UK Pink Floyd Experience - Friday 27 May
Jaleo Flemenco - Wednesday 22 June
The 9-piece "UK Pink Floyd Experience" replicates the line up of the full live Pink Floyd touring band of the late 80s and 90s. With state-of-the-art sound and a spectacular light show, the aim is to perfect the atmosphere of the great Pink Floyd at a live show. The two-hour show includes all the well-known songs. The set covers the eras from "Dark Side of The Moon" through to "Division Bell", so fans of all ages will find something from their own ‘era’. The nine band members are all seasoned musicians and include a choreographed and costumed three girl backing vocal section. An absolute must for all Floyd fans. Tickets ÂŁ17 - 8pm (doors 7.15)
Enter the flamboyant and magical flamenco world of Andalusian dance, song and guitar. On this tour Jaleo are joined by new dancers including sensational new stars JosĂŠ LeĂłn and Adolfo Vega. Fusing the essential elements of flamenco with their own inimitable and charismatic brand of Spanish passion and emotion, Jaleo unleash the raw energy and sensuous rhythms inherent within flamenco. A potent cocktail of explosive footwork, haunting singing, virtuoso guitar playing and percussive handclapping from southern Spain with some of flamenco’s finest award-winning artists. ‘Jaleo´s enthusiasm is truly inspirational’ - DANCE TODAY. Tickets ÂŁ16 - 8pm (doors 7.15)
The Blockheads - Saturday 28 May There’s no doubting that the most lovable, eccentric, cocky, funny, schoolboyrude and artful characters from the punk generation are The Blockheads. Together with Ian Dury they created songs that were clever, insightful, subversive and, more often than not, just plain fun. Clever Trevor, Hit Me with Your Rhythm Stick, Reasons to Be Cheerful Part 3, What a Waste and, the anthem for their generation, Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll, all carried the same trademark mix of humour, indignation, wonderfully witty wordplay and extreme musicianship. Dury may no longer be with us but The Blockheads remain one of the hardest working groups to have emerged from the decade that gave us some of the most exciting and original music since the birth of rock and roll. Chaz Jankel, Norman Watt-Roy, John Turnbull and Mick Gallagher still remain from the original band, and the current line-up is augmented by Gilad Atzmon. ‘Ian Dury owed his brilliance to no one but he owed his stardom to The Blockheads’ - The Word. Tickets ÂŁ17.50 - 8pm (doors 7.15)
The Blues Band - Saturday 25 June Paul Jones, Dave Kelly, Rob Townsend, Gary Fletcher and Tom McGuinness. Simply the best purveyors of the Blues in the UK today. With four singers and songwriters in the band, the quality and variety of performance and material offered by The Blues Band is pretty much unrivalled, either in the Blues world or elsewhere, and the band’s passion and reverence for the music, their presentation and showmanship all combine to deliver the definitive ‘good night out’ available from any artist currently operating within the blues field in Europe and beyond. For a band to stay together for 32 years proves just how good they are. Tickets ÂŁ18 7.30pm (doors 6.45)
Big Howard Little Howard - Sunday 26 June Following the huge success of their massively popular BBC TV show (Little Howard’s Big Question) Big Howard and the animated six year old Little Howard are packing their bags and heading for a tour of the UK with their hit live show Little Howard and the Magic Pencil of Life and Death. Bursting out of the TV set and onto the stage this unique family show features sing-a-long songs, innovative 3D animation and hilarious interactive stand-up to keep all ages entertained. Little Howard will be causing plenty of mischief as he appears on screen to talk to the audience and annoy Big Howard. Everything is going well for Little Howard, he has his own TV show, best-selling book and has even appeared on The Royal Variety Performance and sometimes Big Howard lets him drive. However all is not well as Little Howard has found out about the magic pencil that created him which could give his life a third dimension but could also destroy him. Witty, clever, at times breathtakingly funny comedy - THE SUNDAY TIMES. Tickets £10 (adults) £8 (children) £30 (family ticket, 2 adults & 2 children) - 2pm (doors 1.15)
Richard Digance - Friday 3 June Quite simply one of the most entertaining acts you will ever see. Brilliant selfpenned comic songs introduced with panache, style and outrageous humour. Richard Digance is an evergreen performer who appeals to all ages, making him still one of Britain's top comedy and music attractions. He is highly respected by fellow comedians for his original material and by musicians for being one of Britain's top acoustic guitarists. Richard Digance has appeared to an audience of 8 in The Falklands, half a million at Knebworth Festival and done thousands of shows in between, as well as occasionally finding nine letter words on Countdown. During 2011 Richard will be celebrating 40 years of performing. Tickets ÂŁ16 - 8pm (doors 7.15)

Emma Scott I’m Emma Scott from Heart Drivetime! I’m quite new to Devon after moving from The West Midlands with my ever-suffering husband and two young children. We love being here and after 6 months are almost unpacked! We move a lot – my 10 year old daughter has lived in 8 different houses! To give you a bit of history about myself, I left school at 16 and went straight into radio, and have now been in the job for 23 years! My original plan was to do my two year Youth Training Scheme at my local station, and then join the Police Force. Not sure I’ll get to fulfil that dream though! I’m not sure Iím grown up enough for a start! I’ve always loved radio and working in it only made my love stronger – so maybe I’ll never leave!! I have quite a busy life! Besides my show at Heart, I travel a lot doing music industry seminars and teach radio at various colleges and universities – which I love! I have just published my first book and am well on the way to write my next two! My husband and I also run a successful live music promotions company ‘Emma Scott Presents’ which has kept us busy for the past 5 years. Never a dull moment! My two girls keep us busy too and I also help out at their school when I can. The most recent thing I’ve been roped into is the Exmoor Challenge with a bunch of Year 6’s! Could be fun! As a family, we visit as many beaches as we can, and in Devon, we are so spoilt! We love to just get in the car with a picnic and take off. We always pack blankets as we’re usually on the beach until nightfall, and the kids can sleep on the way home in the car! We’re saving up for a camper van to make things a little easier! I can’t wait for the summer, but am quite happy sitting on a beach with fish n chips in the middle of winter too. I just love the seaside and I love living in Devon. I’m hoping there won’t be any other moves for a while

Richard Digance is an evergreen performer who appeals to all ages, making him still one of Britain's top comedy and music attractions. He is highly respected by fellow comedians for his original material and by musicians for being one of Britain's top acoustic guitarists. Richard Digance has appeared to an audience of 8 in The Falklands, half a million at Knebworth Festival and done thousands of shows in between, as well as occasionally finding nine letter words on Countdown. During 2011 Richard will be celebrating 40 years of performing.

Over the last ten years, MERCURY have performed to sell out audiences at prestigious venues across the world, playing to in excess of a million peoplefrom Holland to Hungary and from Majorca to the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. Other prestigious shows include headlining a New Years Eve festival in Dubai, which was broadcast live to millions via MTV Asia as well as an exclusive concert for Queen’s own Roger Taylor. With the extraordinary vocal range and outstanding delivery of Joseph Lee Jackson as Freddie Mercury and the intricate guitar work of Glenn Scrimshaw as Brian May backed by superbly crafted harmonies and a driving rhythm section, this event will of course include fantastic performances of the most popular Queen hits from the height of their reign as well as some additional tracks from the band’s vast back catalogue.
