Venue:  The Lights     map Categories   Live music  •  Tribute
Address:   West Street, Andover, Hampshire, SP10 1AH
Telephone:  Box office: 01264 368368
Event:  Chris Hill's Dirty DC - 8pm - There are tribute bands… and then there are experiences so authentic they blur the line between homage and the real thing. Chris Hill Dirty DC Band sits firmly in the latter category—rapidly establishing itself as one of the most electrifying AC/DC tribute acts in the UK, and for good reason. Fronted by Chris Hill as Brian Johnson, the band channels the unmistakable rasp and power that defined classics like Back in Black, one of the best-selling albums of all time with over 50 million copies sold worldwide. Johnson’s voice became synonymous with AC/DC’s global domination in the 1980s, and Hill’s performance mirrors that intensity with remarkable precision—decades of dedication evident in every note.

The Lion Inside

The Lion Inside

Venue: Theatre Royal
11am
A heart-warming tale about confidence, self-esteem, and a shy little mouse who sets out on a journey to find his roar. In a dry dusty place where the sand sparkled gold, stood a mighty flat rock, all craggy and old. And under that rock in a tinyful house, lived the littlest, quietest, meekest brown mouse. Fed up of being ignored and forgotten by the other animals, Mouse wishes he could roar like Lion. But, as he discovers, even the biggest, bossiest people are scared sometimes... and even the smallest creatures can have the heart of a lion! Based on the best-selling story by Rachel Bright & Jim Field, this joyous new stage adaptation featuring puppetry, music and song is directed by Sarah Punshon (The Jungle Book), with music and lyrics by Eamonn O’Dwyer (Brief Encounter).
