Â
Blending rock rhythms with classical influences, ELO also released many classic albums such as 'A New World Record', 'Discovery' and 'Out of the Blue', and many sell out tours which further established them as one of the most important and influential bands ever. The ELO Experience - The world's foremost multi award winning tribute to The Electric Light Orchestra. With sensational string section, stunning light show and large screen projection.

An Epic Tale of People PowerÂ
Â
Â
The Felling is a David-and-Goliath story about how a small group of residents in one of Europeâs greenest cities battled to stop a powerful city council and a giant multinational corporation from chopping down thousands of healthy street trees as part of a massive ÂŁ2.2 billion PFI contract to maintain the city's highways.
Â
What started as a local protest, soon attracted national and international support. As the stakes increased with threats of bankruptcy and imprisonment, ordinary citizens were forced to ask themselves the crucial question:
How far am I prepared to go to save a tree?Â
Filmed over a period of two years, this is an extraordinary and shocking first-hand account of what happened on the tree-lined suburban streets of Sheffield.

Peter Wright won Night One of the 2022 Cazoo Premier League, defeating hometown hero Jonny Clayton in the final as new era began in Cardiff on Thursday.
Â
Wright maintained the mesmerising standard that saw him become a two-time World Champion in January, averaging 113.02 to defeat Clayton in the final.
Â
A sell-out crowd of over 4,000 fans were in attendance at the Motorpoint Arena to witness the new knockout format in action for the first time on a landmark night in Premier League history.
Â
Wright got his ninth successive campaign off to a perfect start, averaging over 100 across the night; beating Michael Smith in the quarter-finals in their World Championship final rematch before edging out fellow Scot Gary Anderson 6-5 to reach the final.
Â
The world number two dominated the final against reigning champion Clayton to pocket the ÂŁ10,000 winners' prize and land five points to take an early lead in the table.
Â
"I've got a new feeling when I play now," said Wright, who earlier this week revealed the Premier League title was his main target in 2022.
Â
"I used to wonder how Phil [Taylor] concentrated for each match but now I've got that feeling. I believe I can go on and win every single tournament I play, but I also know I can play better.
Â
"The new format gives you time to get used to the stage, that's why I think I played so well in the final.
Â
"You also get to experience the amazing crowd up to three times a night, so I love it."
Â
The final saw Wright fly out of the blocks into a 3-0 lead, and he then went seven darts into a nine-darter before eventually wrapping the leg up in 11 to move into a 4-0 advantage.
Â
Clayton won the next leg but was unable to live with the pace of Wright, who kept the Welsh crowd quiet to seal the first title of the campaign.
Â
Home favourite Clayton is second in the early standings with three points thanks to his wins over debutant Joe Cullen and James Wade in the quarter-finals and semi-finals respectively.
Â
Losing semi-finalists Wade and Anderson go away with two points thanks to their respective quarter-final victories against world number one Gerwyn Price and five-time Premier League champion Michael van Gerwen.
Â
Next Thursday sees the Premier League roadshow roll into Liverpool for Night Two of the league phase, as Wright renews rivalries with Van Gerwen in the pick of the quarter-final ties.
Â
The night's opening matches will also see Price v Anderson, Clayton v Smith and Wade v Cullen as the £1 million tournament continues at the M&S Bank Arena.

TWO DATES! - Tuesday 5 & Wednesday 6 April 2022
Â
Strange Tales from the Culture Wars
Jon Ronson LIVE
Â
Things Fell Apart is the live version of Jonâs hit BBC Radio 4 podcast. Jon will tell stories from the show, and some brand new stories too. There'll be audio and rare video clips and surprise guests and a Q&A.
Â
About Things Fell Apart: These past few years Jon has watched friends get caught up in the online culture wars to such a degree they've lost everything â their careers, their wellbeing. And by culture wars, Jon means the battle for dominance between conflicting values. Jon wanted to understand how things fell apart, and so he went back in time to find the origin stories, the pebbles thrown in the pond creating the ripples. He had no idea how unexpected, how spellbinding, those tales would be.
Â
Praise for the podcast:
Â
âSuperb' - The Times.
'The number one audio show of 2021â - The Observer.
âThe episodes start in such obscure places and take such unexpected turns that each one is a revelatory listenâ - The Royal Television Society.

SHOW RESCHEDULED - STATEMENT FROM THE PROMOTER:
Â"Due to the on-going crisis around the Coronavirus pandemic, Bill Bailey is rescheduling all post-Christmas tour dates on his current EN ROUTE TO NORMAL UK arena tour.
Â
Ticket holders will be contacted by their points-of-purchase regarding the new arrangements."
ÂIn this new show, Strictly Come Dancingâs newest star tries to see a way through the weird unreality of our new world. Tracing lines through chaotic moments in our past, Bill seeks out parallels where human resilience and our ability to endure has got us through times of strife.
He recounts his own experiences of dealing with isolation, including his thoughts on the âsounds of lockdownâ. Through music, songs, and memories, Bill considers (among many other things!) our changing priorities, the wonder of dogs, how little things can keep you on track and his new-found love of skydiving.
EN ROUTE TO NORMAL is not just a funny, heart-warming mix of stories, music and history, but a personal mission to chart a course through these Strange Days!
Tickets for Bill Baileyâs En Route to Normal Tour at the Utilita Arena Sheffield on Saturday 14 May 2022 are on sale now from the Arena website:Â https://www.utilitaarenasheffield.co.uk/bill-baileyÂ

A new date for Mike Bubbins' first ever solo UK stand-up tour, Throwback has just been announced!
Rescheduled from Thursday 3 March 2022, to Thursday 2Â March 2023Â
Throwback is a powerful, thought-provoking, unapologetically visceral hour of stand-up comedy that pushes boundaries, defies neat descriptions and challenges audience and performer alike to question the very nature of their existence. In Throwback, Bubbins lays himself bare, describing his torment over his sexuality, his struggles with his many demons and his journey to find his inner truth... AS IF IT IS!
Â
Itâs actually an hour and a half of really funny stories, pretty impressive characterisations, possibly a song (weâll see how that goes), and Mike (me) getting very annoyed by berks, having a laugh about life and generally not taking himself (myself) too seriously.
Â
Throwback is a comedy show about me bringing to life the stuff that I find funny. Pretty straightforward, really.
Â
âThey asked me to do a UK stand up tour... AND SO I DID.â - Mike Bubbins.
Tickets available soon, keep an eye on socials and our website:Â https://www.sheffieldcityhall.co.uk/event/mike-bubbines-3-march-2022Â
