Kicking off the jam-packed month is one for Dire Straits fans, as Money for Nothing will recreate the distinct sounds of the iconic group, featuring all their legendary hits, and soaring guitar solos, performed by a talented band on February 6.
Then, the annual fundraising event of the Newark Twinning association, Last Night of the Proms, will celebrate 40 years of friendship with Emmendingen, Germany, on February 8.
Prepare for a blend of music and magic with The Everly Brothers by Candlelight — which could be the perfect Valentines Day treat.
The magical evening will bathe the beautiful theatre in candlelight, as audiences settle in to enjoy the timeless hits of the golden age of Rock and Roll, with two beautiful acoustic guitars and the stunning vocal harmonies of the Everly Brothers.
The BAFTA nominated author, activist, performer and Sunday Times number one best seller Lemn Sissay will be next to take to the stage in Newark with this brand-new show, on February 20.
