The historic amphitheatre in Swindon’s Old Town will stage a tribute to Phil Collins before welcoming an award-winning theatre company for a light-hearted take on British history.
On Saturday 4th July, tribute act Seriously Collins will perform a celebration of the music of Phil Collins and Genesis from 7.30pm.
Rather than focusing on impersonation, the production aims to recreate the sound and atmosphere of Phil Collins’ live performances, featuring well-known hits including In the Air Tonight, Easy Lover, Sussudio and Against All Odds, alongside classic Genesis songs.
The entertainment continues on Sunday 5th July when The Pantaloons Theatre Company presents The (Almost) Complete History of Britain at 2pm.
The fast-paced production condenses thousands of years of British history into less than two hours, combining comedy, live music and audience participation.
The show features famous moments from Britain’s past, including Henry VIII and the Spanish Armada, alongside plenty of unexpected twists and humour.
Visitors are encouraged to bring a picnic blanket or low-backed chair to enjoy the performances in the surroundings of Town Gardens Bowl.
Advance booking is recommended.
