COURT AND SPARK – THE JONI MITCHELL SONGBOOK
Friday 20 March 2020
£17.75 - The Capstone Theatre, Liverpool
Singer, songwriter, painter, poet, activist and voice of a generation, Joni
Mitchell is an essential part of the soundtrack to the twentieth century. She
grew up with folk music in the 60’s, she railed against injustice in the 70’s
– she turned her autobiography into song in the 80’s and reinvented herself
in the 90’s.
Court and Spark – The Joni Mitchell Songbook brings together five of the
North West’s most experienced musicians to celebrate the kaleidoscopic
musical world of Joni Mitchell. The band is led by the many voices of Jade
Thunder– equally at home in the simple folk music melodies of the late
sixties and the cool jazz sounds of Joni’s later albums. Toni Hughes is on
keyboards, with Martin Byrne on bass and David Crilly on guitars. Daz
Jones drives the band on drums and percussion.
The Court and Spark show will take you on a musical journey that will
probably mirror your own journey through life, from Ladies of the Canyon,
Clouds, For the Roses, Blue and Court and Spark, to the cool, evocative
sounds of Hissing of Summer Lawns, Hejira, Mingus and Turbulent Indigo.
A fabulous bunch of musicians led by my daughter Jade who has truly found
a home for her voice.
SOUTHPORT DRAMATIC CLUB PRESENT:
DEATH OF A SALESMAN
27th March – 4th April 2020

Willy Loman is an ordinary man – honest, respected, hard-
working. For thirty-six years he’s been on the road, paying his
way and one day he’s going to come good. When his son Biff
returns home, suddenly things are looking up. But nothing
lasts forever. Miller’s seminal drama is considered one of the
greatest plays of the 20th Century – an extraordinary and
devastating classic about the downfall of the American Dream.
