MUSIC: Limehouse Lizzy - the greatest hits of Phil Lynott and Thin Lizzy
Thursday 2 February 7.30pm
Following their barnstorming performance in March 2011, Limehouse Lizzy return with their action-packed pyrotechnic fuelled explosion of a show. Charisma, attention to detail and sheer musical ability has led to their performance being described as “beyond tribute” by both audience and critics alike. An exciting testament to the power of rock, Limehouse Lizzy keep the spirit of Celtic rock icon Phil Lynott and his band Thin Lizzy alive, well and dominating stages
worldwide.

SATURDAY CLUB: Pip's Wildlife Garden
Presented by the Nutmeg Puppet Theatre Company and ideal for 3-6 yr olds.
We are very excited to present the first Saturday Club for 2012! Come with Pip to the wild, glorious, overgrown jungle at the bottom of her garden. Watch the hedgehog feasting on snails, see the barn owl hunting, and if you are lucky, dance with the hare by moonlight. But wait a minute! What’s grumpy
Grandad doing here, clearing brambles, putting up fences and
planting vegetables? Grandad shuts the gate, Pip jumps on the seedlings, and something eats the peas. How will they ever find a way to share the garden?

SNYSB and Royal Marines have an amazing concert!
From the Diss Mercury
Young musicians teamed up with professionals from the Royal Marines School of Music at the weekend for a special concert.
Twenty-six marines and three bandmasters from Portsmouth came to Diss for a weekend of rehearsals with the South Norfolk Youth Symphonic Band (SNYSB), which was followed by a concert at Diss Corn Hall on Sunday night.
Mike Booty, musical director of the youth band and ex-Royal Marine, said: “They get the opportunity to play alongside professional musicians and that is a tremendous benefit to them and it also helps the marines and bandmasters who are in training.”
