We welcome a headline set from Comedy Magician ALI COOK.
Ali has written and starred in seven television series for ITV, Channel 4, Five and Sky One. He is best known for his comedy series: Dirty Tricks (Channel 4) and Monkey Magic (Five). Both series were nominated for The Golden Rose of Montreaux and The British Comedy Awards Ali has performed many private parties for VIP personalities including Damian Hirst, Basement Jaxx and JK Rowling. His sell-out debut show in Edinburgh mixed cutting edge magic effects with stand up and received four star reviews. Promoter Mick Perrin brought the show to the west end as part of The Big Joke Comedy Festival. Again, the show sold out.

**** "With a pleasing mix of cheesy/sinister, he chews razor blades, crushes doves and gets journalists up on stage to help him perform tricks: Ali Cook simply has no fear" The List. "Immensely funny" Daily Telegraph. ?Supremely Talented? Time Out.

On the 60th anniversary of their inauguration, Kingston Choral Society repeat the first ever concert of the then Surbiton Oratorio Society with a performance of Handel's Messiah. The society was formed after the Mayor of Surbiton, in the days before the London Boroughs, asked local church choirs to band together for an Easter performance of Messiah.
The participants enjoyed the experience so much that a choral society emerged and has gone from strength to strength, now numbering more than 110 members.

Hull historians believe that its interesting history was determined by its unusual geography. The town of Hull is a long narrow peninsula projecting into Boston harbor which the Plymouth colony used to set up a trading post with the local Indians in 1621.
Hull launched the industry of tourism in the town in 1825. The magnificent beaches and easy access to Boston brought hordes of visitors. By 1840 steamers were making three trips a day between Boston and Hull.
Hull enjoyed an era of grand hotels and prominent visitors. Unfortunately gamblers and pick pockets and confidence men followed the tourists on the honky-tonk boardwalk. It was then that the town of Hull licensed the construction of Paragon Park which was described as a “marvel of fantasy”. It provided safe family fun for the guests of the town.
The amusement park closed in 1985 and an entire era ended for the millions of visitors who enjoyed it for generations. The original carousel has been kept running and maintained and still stands in usage on the boulevard.
Another era began as Hull developed a suburban character and a growing number of professionals moved into town. They are drawn by the same beaches-Nantasket Beach being the most widely used-and the same proximity to Boston that drew people in the 19th century.
