Chickenshed will be on stage at the Brunswick

BRITAIN’S Got Talent semi-finalists Chickenshed have been added to the bill for Thursday’s Go Greek event at the Brunswick Centre.

The theatre group wowed the judges with Alesha Dixon hitting her golden buzzer after being moved to tears by their auditions performance.

Go Greek starts at 6pm and runs until 10pm with free entertainment and lots of food to try.

John Themis, the marketing manager for the Brunswick, said:  “Our line-up for Go Greek was already incredible, but now with Chickenshed added to the line-up it has eclipsed all our expectations. They are inspirational and their performances shoot straight to the heart – I can’t wait for the public to see what they have in store first hand. This is going to be a very special event – our biggest and best ever that’s for sure.”

Chickenshed brings together people of all ages and from all backgrounds to produce outstanding theatre that entertains, inspires, challenges, and informs both audiences and participants alike.  Their mission is to create entertaining and outstanding theatre that celebrates diversity and inspires positive change. Performance is at the heart of everything they do and brings together all aspects of the company.
