THE STORY OF DOO-WOP

Join the UK’s premier Doo-Wop quartet, The Testosta-Tones, as they take you on a musical journey detailing the history of Doo-Wop.

During the early 1950’s, quartets sung on street corners, in barbershops and churches in a style which became known as Doo-Wop, paving the way for rock ‘n’ roll. As the groups moved from the streets into recording studios, so the popularity of the genre grew.

Along with radio disc jockey and your host for the evening Chuck Anderson, The Testosta-Tones will perform such popular songs as Blue Moon, Earth Angel, Why Do Fools Fall in Love, Runaround Sue, Teenager in Love among many others, presenting ‘The Story of Doo-Wop’ and demonstrating how the genre influenced and created mainstream music during the 1950’s and has seen resurgences in most decades since and still influences contemporary music.

Doors open at 6.30 pm

Performance starts at 7.30 pm

Tickets: £14.00

Available from the Aldeburgh Jubilee Hall Box Office HERE

or in person from Aldeburgh Cinema, 51 High Street, Aldeburgh (Monday to Saturday 10am – 1.15pm) or by telephone on 01728 454884.

Southwold Harbour 1939 – two famous author fish for hidden secrets…

Red Skies looks at two of Suffolk’s most famous residents with very different links to Ipswich: George Orwell who took his name from the river, and Arthur Ransome who was resident on it, and what would have happened if they had met.

The show follows the two men over the years, both are in search of answers, both political and personal – whilst the former is about to write Animal Farm, the latter is married to Trotsky’s secretary, so sparks could fly.

Performance starts 7.30pm

TICKETS: Full price : £14.50 and JSA, 65+, Student, Under 25’s, Wheelchair user, disabled. Carers go free: £13.50
