Jan McNulty Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Thank you Lizbie - YOU'VE JUST MADE MY DAY!!! There are a couple of do-able venues for me (but sadly not The Lowry again). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangorballetboy Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Thanks Lizbie. I meant to mention this a few days ago as I got an email from the Grand Opera House in Belfast about the tour! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alison Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 No indication of repertoire yet, though - I'm hoping for a bit more variety than in recent trips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Q Fan Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 (edited) Oh I am looking forward to seeing the Trocks they are so good for the soul! Sad they are not coming to Liverpool or Manchester but Belfast, Buxton and London will do! Edited February 19, 2022 by Don Q Fan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizbie1 Posted February 19, 2022 Author Share Posted February 19, 2022 There are a couple of gaps in the schedule, so it's possible more dates will be added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pas de Quatre Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Maja in Spanish means someone who is beautiful e.g. Goya's famous painting La Maja denuded, the naked beauty. The suffix isimas means extremely, so a rough translation could be a Bevy of Beauties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
