A Cab to the Festival Hall ?

Yes, friends, on Thursday that magnificent venue will host a performance of Igor Stravinsky's ballet music Le Sacré du printemps, played entirely from memory by the Aurora Orchestra.
However, if your preference is for a one-time game-bird shop, school of ballet, a rooming house redolent with rock and movie history, or to be reminded of (among others) Memphis or Charlie Christian — or maybe you could just murder a pizza — you might ask your cabbie to drive out to Chelsea instead, where Pizza Express Live! will present an evening with Pete Atkin and Simon Wallace at 152, King's Road, the venue known as The Pheasantry.
Once again Pete and Simon will entertain with another selection, mostly from the seemingly inexhaustible (well over 200 songs) Clive James and Pete Atkin songbook. So expect a few you'll not have heard, along with some of the old concert favourites.
The show begins at 8 p.m. (doors open 6.30) on Thursday 16th April, and as of today (Saturday), tickets are still available. You can book your table on line via the Pizza Express Live! website at www.pizzaexpresslive.com/whats-on/pete-atkin.
Don't forget to exchange the secret MV wink with other members...
