An evening with Trevor Moss & Hannah-Lou and The Lantern Players
Doors open at 8pm - Quorn Village Hall

Can’t Wait For The Spring Tour 2010 An evening with Trevor Moss & Hannah-Lou and The Lantern Players. Following the release of Trevor Moss & Hannah-Lou’s self-titled debut album on Loose Music (released on Feb15th), the pair will be eschewing the conventional live music circuit in favour of an enchanting tour of village halls, bringing along for company a handpicked selection of the best players from their famous London folk club, The Lantern Society. Their back to basics jaunt around the southern counties embraces a more rustic approach, advertising via the local post offices, pubs and village notice boards. ‘The village hall, pub, post office and shop are the cornerstones of the community, in fact that’s all there is in our village. Our country is blessed with a plethora of beautiful and too often underused village halls, designed and purpose built for close knit communities to gather in and perform to one another.’ Establishing their thriving folk club ‘The Lantern Society’ in 2008 and just completing the maiden year of broadcasting ‘The Lantern Society Radio Hour’ a bimonthly online radio show to great success, Trevor Moss & Hannah-Lou have become pivotal figures on the London folk and roots scene. Proof of this coming when The Camden Crawl, the capital’s biggest music festival headhunted the pair to sit alongside the industry’s elite on the festival committee for 2010. Trevor Moss & Hannah-Lou, keen to involve the local communities, have invited a selection of local acts from in and around each village to join the bill and pit their wits against the Big Smoke’s best. The Lantern Society Radio Hour will be producing and broadcasting a very special ‘Can’t Wait For The Spring Tour’ edition, capturing live the essence of the journey and continuing the modern field recording odyssey that is The Lantern Society Radio Hour. Tickets available in advance from www.wegottickets.com/lantern £5 in advance, Limited tickets available in the door £6 www.trevormossandhannahlou.com

New Quorndon Shakespeare Company present Universally Acknowledged
7:30pm - Quorn Village Hall

HOW WELL DO YOU KNOW YOUR JANE AUSTEN? The New Quorndon Shakespeare Company present their dramatised reading about Jane Austen's life and work. This is the story of Jane Austen's life told through her own letters and those of her relatives and friends. It is light-hearted and often amusing, and casts a very different light on the author from the traditional idea of the writer as a dowdy spinster. Unkind, scurrilous, bitchy, non-P.C. - no wonder her sister censored some of Jane's correspondence. The show should appeal equally to fans as well as to those who know nothing about Jane Austen or her novels. This is a full-length evening show with refreshments. Tickets (£6 with concessions for students at £5) can be obtained from Quorn Post Office or by ringing Chris on 01509 415272 Please book early - we had to turn people away from our last show 'Shakespearella'.
