Pulman & Stilgoe: A Couple of Swells

Pulman & Stilgoe: A Couple of Swells

Presented by Saffron Hall

Tickets from £20

Price includes a commission of £1.00

Liza Pulman, comedienne, songstress, and one third of the iconic Fascinating Aida, teams up with the quick-witted musical virtuoso Joe Stilgoe for a brand-new show.

A Couple of Swells brings together their unique musical styles and stories from two fascinating careers, featuring some of their all-time favourite songs sprinkled with panache, wit, and charm. A marvelous evening of Joe's dazzling piano playing and Liza’s exquisite vocals as they dig into the true classics and hidden gems of Irving Berlin, Paul McCartney, Al Jolson, Jerome Kern, and Leonard Bernstein, with a sprinkling of Sondheim beauties and some new songs written for the show by Joe Stilgoe.

A magical and charismatic pairing – think La La Land meets 'The Great American Songbook' – this is an evening of old-fashioned glamour in the company of two musical greats.
