Great performances they may have felt like 'the band playing on the Titanic' but a great night, The Fence Collective showing the range of talent they have. 'Star of hope' we're all looking for at the minute. Kenny (King?) happy to share the limelight. The film beautiful funny and moving. Soundtrack played superbly,his voice has tremendous range sometimes sounding like it was cracking then a soaring falsetto. The timing with the film spot on. Bridgewater Hall closed from today. A shame more people didn't see this. '
