Join us at Queen Street Mill Textile Museum for a an evening of verse, songs, comedy and Northern mayhem with Bard Company!
Ian Whiteley, Jeffarama! and Tony Kinsella had once been the Angry Young Men of their generation, but have now evolved into the Vaguely Miffed Middle-Aged Whingers of a new age, raging poetically against global capitalism, unjust conflict and the rising price of cardigans and nice slippers. Ian suggested that combining their three croaky and asthmatic voices into a chorus of agitation and protest would bring Fascism crumbling down.
They all agreed that the time had come to ride, armed only with a phalanx of verses, songs and one-liners, into the eye of the storm, like The Three Horsemen Of The Apocalypse (Death was having a day off), although Tony specified that he isn't free on Thursdays.
They have embarked on a busy series of gigs in Socialist Clubs, Museums, pubs, cafe bars, theatres and festivals. Shaping themselves into the world's wrinkliest Boy Band, Bard Company are coming to Queen Street Mill ... there'll be trouble at t'mill in Bard Company!
