3 John Power: Cast, The La’s, and Me, Plowright Theatre, Scunthorpe, Friday March 20

John Power had one of the best rock'n'roll apprenticeships ever - playing bass as an 18-year-old in The La's. Forming Cast in 1991, he sang, wrote songs, and played guitar for one of Britpop's pre-eminent bands, securing two platinum-selling records before returning to the charts in 2024 with Love Is The Call.

Power's solo career produced some of his best work, and through the summer of 2026, Cast join Oasis at their football stadium tour. Now it's time to reflect on Britpop, the hits - Alright, Sandstorm, Walkaway, Flying and more - in this intimate show that mixes John's best-loved songs with wild, funny and tender stories.

5 Nigel Havers, Engine Shed, Lincoln, Sunday March 22

"Join me, a stage, and a lifetime of gloriously ridiculous stories to share with you,” says Nigel. “You’ll get the full Havers experience: charm, wit, and absolutely no running in slow motion.” He’ll be talking about everything from his early days as a fresh-faced drama school hopeful, to the highs and lows of a career that’s seen him in everything from Chariots of Fire and Empire of the Sun to Don’t Wait Up and West End plays – and more than his fair share of Palladium pantos.
