THE much-loved Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain will celebrate its 25th anniversary when it performs in Worcester.
The orchestra (UOGB) that started out as a bit of fun only to become a British phenonenom will be at Huntingdon Hall on Tuesday, January 26, playing tongue-in-cheek renditions of popular songs on the ukulele. Songs already in their repetoire include Kate Bush's Wuthering Heights reworked as a swinging jazz number, Tchaikovsky's Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, Anarchy in the UK in the style of Simon and Garfunkel, and the Theme from Shaft.
Critics who praised the octet have said they are “worth traveling a thousand miles to hear".
For tickets, priced £18.50, call the Worcester Live box office on 01905 611427 or visit worcesterlive.co.uk.
