MEET THE CHEF

Meet the chef A SELECTION OF LOCAL COOKS SHARE THEIR KITCHEN SECRETS, CULINARY LOVES AND FOODIE INFLUENCES.

L-R: Adrian and David

Adrian Gagea The Maynard

Adrian works largely at The Maynard but also at The George in Hathersage. Family has been a big inspiration to him. “My grandmother, great-grandmother and of course, my mother. All of these lovely ladies cooked for our families with such pleasure and joy, using simple and flavoursome ingredients with traditional techniques - resulting in consistently delicious food,” he said.

Both venues utilise local produce which you’ll find throughout their menus but there’s one thing in particular that is Adrian’s favourite: “I love doing Sunday roasts. All of the fresh roast vegetables, duck fat and herbs roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese bubbling in cheese sauce, crispy Yorkshire pudding… and the most tender sirloin from our local butchers.

I’d recommend it to anyone and everyone.”

David Palfi

The George, Hathersage David came to England around 2006 from Hungary and after having a few different jobs found his passion in the kitchen he loved the atmosphere and vibe.

He’s based at the newly-opened George in Hathersage and, backed by an ‘amazing team’, loves working with fresh fish as well as putting his twist on classic British dishes.

“We have recently spent over £400k on a full refurbishment at the George, with a new menu too,” he said. “I really like salmon or mackerel, either smoked or not, and using fresh local vegetables to go with the seasons.

“I really enjoy modern British cuisine. I like preparing traditional dishes with a modern slant, bringing twists, flair and new techniques to the dishes.”

MEET THE CHEF

Andrew Wornes Bank House

Creativity is a big part of a chef ’s repertoire and is something that Bank House’s Andrew Wornes thrives on.

“I’ve always liked to experiment, and what better place to do that than the kitchen,” he said. “As a family we spent a lot of time in the kitchen growing up, helping make the Sunday dinners and learning to make the most of leftovers. It’s all helped to push me towards a career in food.”

Bank House serves mainly Mediterranean fare, from sharing platters and small plates to an à la carte menu.There’s a social dining bar area as well as a more formal first floor restaurant and private dining room.

They are just launching their new spring menu in a move to make the Hathersage restaurant more seasonal. “It’s a way to really bring all aspects of the business together in to one coherent offering,” explained Andrew.

“As a business we’re growing rapidly and just purchased our second site which will be announced soon. I was appointed as a company director last year and I suppose in five years’ time I’ll be overseeing a few kitchens. I like to think I’ll also still be cooking at Bank House as it’s what I enjoy. “

Chris Parker West 10

Chris has been head chef at West 10 on Fulwood Road for three years after previously working at the Kenwood Hall Hotel.

West 10, a wine bar and restaurant, serves a fresh, seasonal a la carte menu with Chris’s favourite dish being lamb cannon, pea pureé, boulangiere potatoes, tenderstem broccoli and lamb jus - perfect for spring.

It was food technology classes at school that made Chris realise he had a passion for cooking and he feels he is in the ideal place to achieve his ambitions.

“I’ve got the freedom to create new menus and our customers really enjoy the food I cook,” he said.

Asked if he had any advice for aspiring chefs he said: “Get the training done and find a kitchen where you enjoy working and can build your experience.”

It’s clearly paid off for Chris as he was voted Westside’s Young Chef of the Year in 2019.

Lee Shortt Nonnas

Lee loves cooking Italian food and brings worldwide experience to his position of head chef at Nonnas, a position he has held for a year.

Previously holding the same position at the Schoolrooms Cafe Bistro in Sheffield, Lee has also worked at Dore Moor Inn, Thirsty Flame in Brinsworth, Q Sports Bar and Grill in Brisbane, Australia, Flahertys Irish Bar in San Antonio, Ibiza and, closer to home,Vittles Cafe Bistro, Mama Amalfi Italian Restaurant, and Mamas and Leonies.

Lee previously served in the army and after finishing his service decided to go back to college and train to become a chef.

“I enjoyed baking and cooking with my mum when I was a kid so decided to take it up as a career,” he said.

His morning is spent on food preparation and baking whilst the rest of the day is spent cooking customers’ meal.

“I enjoy being a chef because you’re always on your feet and never bored,” he added. “I also like getting compliments from customers about my food. I also like a challenge, which cheffing is most of the time.”

EATING OUT

Warm and welcoming SAM PEGG TAKES A VISIT TO THE HYDE PARK INN IN DRONFIELD had high expectations from The Hyde Park Inn. They were winners of the Best FamilyFriendly at the Westside Restaurant of the Year Awards in 2017 and are a favourite spot for the locals in Dronfield.

It was instantly clear to see that it was a hearty pub with a welcoming atmosphere and I got that impression as soon as I entered in through the doors. It is nestled next to the most beautiful countryside with walks that can go on for miles and with a garden of its own, it houses stunning views for an afternoon pint. Dogs are welcomed, making it the perfect destination for any dog walker.

The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring you had the best experience possible. With a vast selection of alcoholic beverages, including real ales, and an impressive array of dishes, there’s definitely something for everybody.

Excited to tuck in, I ordered the Bacon and Cheese Potato Skins (£4.95) and my dining companion opted for the Breaded Mozzarella Sticks (£4.95). Each starter came with a generous portion of fresh salad. As a whole it was perfectly sized to prepare you for the meal to come.

Both dishes were full of flavour and the selection of other starters looked just as tasty.

I

18 www.sheffieldvibe.com

For our main course there was a wide selection with a variety of wraps, burgers, salads, jacket potatoes, dishes from the grill, other mains and vegetarian dishes. After taking a portion of time to make a decision amongst the delicious choices, the Homemade Steak and Ale Pie of the Day (£9.25) and Chicken and Chorizo Skewers (£8.25) took our fancy. The quality of the food was exceptional and the flavours married together perfectly.

The pie had a great depth of flavour with succulent steak and buttery pastry.

It was served with chips, peas (mushy or garden) and gravy – with a hint of Henderson’s Relish to accompany if you desire.

My dining companion was amazed at the level of cooking with the chicken and chorizo skewers and I have to say, after tasting it myself, I agree! The time spent eating was time spent chatting and we found ourselves lost in conversation with the atmosphere within the pub being of a calming nature.

Onto the desserts, and to my surprise, unlike many other similar pubs there was the perfect selection to feast our eyes upon. Whenever Chocolate Fudge Cake with ice cream (£4.50) appears on the menu, it immediately appeals to me. My

dining companion opted for Vanilla Ice Cream (£3.45) which arrived with three scoops, chocolate sauce and a Cadbury’s flake. Both desserts did not disappoint and acted as the perfect end to a lovely, delicious meal.

The Hyde Park Inn host speciality evenings such as: Tapas Tuesday (2 for 1 on all the Tapas Menu from 4pm every Tuesday), Fish Friday (from 4pm every Friday, Fish and Chips available to take away Monday to Saturday), delicious Sunday Carvery (£8.95, served from 12noon-6pm) and an all you can eat international buffet (£12.95 for adults and £6.95 for children). The atmosphere is just as you’d desire in that setting and the quality of food and service is exceptional, make sure you don’t miss out on all The Hyde Park Inn has to offer. It definitely delivered.

EATING OUT

Best of both COMBINING A LIVELY BAR AND A COSY BISTRO, WEST 10 OFFERS THE SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE, WRITES CHIARA BRUNO. et in the chic suburb of Ranmoor, West 10 provides the optimal setting for an excellent evening out, combining an elegant restaurant and bistro upstairs, with a lively wine bar downstairs. My companion and I opted to sit upstairs in the restaurant for our meal, yet both spaces are available to dine in.

We started our night with a refreshing glass of chardonnay (£6.50) and a little something to whet our appetite before ordering our meals: a serving of olives, crusty bread (still hot from the oven) and a generous helping of balsamic vinegar and oil dip. We deviated slightly from the menu’s enticing “While you Wait” option, which included all of the above along with a portion of camembert for £10, giving us time to peruse the menu and choose our starters and mains.

Now, I’m always one for trying something a little bit different, so when I spotted the pan-seared wood pigeon starter (£8), I knew I just had to have it.

The slow cooked pigeon was beautifully tender and was served with a burnt onion purée, complementing the naturally deep and rich flavour of the meat. The blackberries added an extra

S

layer of texture, mixing sweet with sour; an innovative combination.

My companion opted for the more traditional ham hock terrine (£7.50), complete with slices of crunchy sourdough, homemade piccalilli, which packed a real punch, and two quail scotch eggs. With beautifully oozy yolks and crispy outer shells, I have to say that these were the best scotch eggs I’ve ever had.

After my game starter, I fancied fish for my main and was torn between the classic beer battered fish and chips (£12), and what I eventually chose (after long deliberation!), the pan-roasted hake (£16). The fresh hake was cooked to perfection and served on a bed of crushed, herby potatoes, chorizo, heaps of green beans and a beautiful salsa verde, creating a delicate fusion of flavours.

My companion also opted for a fish main by ordering an enormous bowl of mussels (£12). They were cooked in a creamy chorizo, leek and cider sauce, creating a unique taste sensation. The huge pot of crispy fries were an excellent accompaniment.

Finally, after we felt we could eat no

more, the desserts arrived: a deliciously sweet frangipane and pistachio tart with strawberries (£7) and a panna cotta topped with a fruity citrus gel and berries (£7). Made with Greek yoghurt as opposed to cream, the panna cotta was fresh and light, giving it a welcome twist to the traditional Italian sweet.

After our evening of wonderful food, we meandered back downstairs to the bar area, which was still very much full of life. And it was clear to see why; West 10 has an extensive wine and bottled beer list, as well as their contemporary menu offering a range of both modern and classic meals using locally sourced fresh ingredients. I know I’ll definitely be returning, and maybe next time I’ll treat myself to an extra glass of wine.

PROMOTION

Some things never change...

NONNAS CELEBRATES 25 YEARS IN BUSINESS AND WOULD LIKE TO SAY A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL THEIR CUSTOMERS. cclesall Road has seen a lot of changes over the past 25 years but one thing has definitely remained true – the passion of Maurizio Mori.

Nonnas – which he first unveiled in 1996 – became an institution within months of its opening.

The Italian restaurant grew from humble beginnings to become a multiple award-winning business and, on one celebrated occasion, even a hang-out for Hollywood ‘A’-lister Sylvester Stallone.

Post-pandemic and the restaurant is stronger than ever and Maurizio wants to say a big ‘thank you’ to the customers that have shown their continued support throughout the hardships of the past two years, and also over the past quarter of a century.

He said: “It has been a privilege to be able to develop such a unique business over the years.

I have always strived to do something

different and bring the flavour and style of our Tuscan homeland to Sheffield and give it a Nonnas twist. But I could never have done it without the amazing support of both customers and staff.

“I still have as much passion now as I ever did so there’s definitely another 25 years in Nonnas yet!”

Nonnas – which also has Maurizio’s childhood friend Stefano Buralli as its long-standing general manager – prides itself in a mixture of tradition, innovation and consistent quality of service.

In recent months they have launched a brand new shop selling authentic Italian food/drink from the different regions of Tuscany. This includes the celebrated Caffe New York blend of coffee that is imported directly from the Tuscan coffee

bar which originally opened in Montecatini in the 1930s.

Nonnas now has a seemingly neverending wine list, ranging from super Tuscan wines and Montecarlo wines, which is situated 15km from Montecatini (Tuscany) which is supplied from Buonamico wine estate.

Cloudy2Clear Established for over 16 years, Cloudy2Clear windows have become the UK’s leading company for domestic glass replacement.

Customers are no longer needing to risk their windows by using the dreaded double glazing cowboy down the road, instead, now they can join over 327,000 happy customers and have their glass replaced in an affordable and ethical manner. Remember, a failed glass unit may no longer provide you with the protection you need or be energy efficient. Why not spend a few minutes checking your home to see if you have any failed double glazing? If you act now you can avoid any future costly problems.

When talking to the MD of Cloudy2Clear Marcus McGee it became clear that these values have been held dear for a number of years. Since starting the business some years ago Cloudy2Clear have remained true to their core values of supporting the local community by providing a service that saves the public money.

The Cloudy2Clear service only requires the glass to be replaced and not the whole window once the unit has failed.

Marcus commented:“Cloudy2Clear were able to assist our community through the last financial crisis in 2008 due to the savings that can be made in using our service. Unfortunately we might be going through something similar again soon and the public can rest assured that we will be there to help once again.”

HOME & GARDEN

Think spring... clean PREPARE YOUR HOME FOR THE NEW SEASON. BY TAMZIN KRAFTMAN ith the temperature rising and the flowers blooming, the darker days of movie marathons in your Christmas pyjamas is over. It is now time to emerge from your winter cave and prepare your home for the upcoming months of fun, friends, and family in the sun. If you’ve been putting off the task of the big spring clean – just spring into action with these simple steps for a happier and brighter home.

W

*** Disinfect door handles

now, rather than pulling out a sun-lounger in June to reveal a large hole in the middle.

Flowers

With colds, the flu and Covid being passed around, a great place for nasty viruses and bugs to linger is on our door and cupboard handles. If you or your family found yourself under the weather during the winter months, it might be worth giving these commonly used surfaces an extra clean.

Spring is the perfect time to watch some flowers bloom.

While the Chelsea Flower Show might be a bit far from your doorstep, bring the flowers to you, by planting an array of daffodils and tulips to brighten up your home and garden. If outdoor planting isn’t for you, house plants are a very popular choice that allows you to bring the outside, inside.

Clean garden furniture

Spruce up the exterior

As spring and summer approach, now is the time to make sure that your garden furniture is in tip-top shape. With snow, sleet, and gale-force winds, you might notice some damage, or see things you need to replace.You’ll be glad you checked

While you can’t judge a book by its cover, seeing months old Christmas lights might not give visitors the best impression.

your front garden, and even clean the front door.You might want to invest in a brand-new front doormat.

Clean ceiling fans If you have a ceiling fan, you probably haven’t used it much over winter. As a result, you might find a rather large build-up of dust and grime. To ensure you don’t end up covered in cobwebs when you turn the fan on again, make sure you give it a good dusting. If you don’t, you’ll be circulating dirty air through your home.

Painting and wood-staining You might find that the wintery weather has caused outdoor surfaces to need a new lick of paint. It’ll help protect them from the elements and make them look brand new at the same time. And don’t forget wood surfaces – you can stain fences, gazebos, tables and chairs so that they’re summerready too.

Wipe down the fridge Thanks to Christmas, you might find that your fridge is looking a bit worse for wear. With the remnants of gravy and leftover sprouts stuck to the back of the fridge, now is the perfect time to give your fridge a good deep clean. If you’re feeling lazy, you might find that the shelves fit in the dishwasher

Wardrobe Get your wardrobe summer-ready by replacing those cozy jumpers with your favourite pair of shorts. This also gives you the chance to ‘Marie Kondo’ some of your old clothes and see what might need repairing or simply throwing away.

Clean upholstery We’ve all spent a lot more time indoors than outdoors over the past two years – and so have your children and pets. This means that your settees and chairs will be covered in dust and hair. Fire up that vacuum cleaner and your home will be cleaner than ever in no time.

Attract Animals With animals coming out of hibernation, you might find them wandering through local parks and even your garden.Why don’t you use this opportunity to make like Attenborough and encourage some wildlife into your garden? A new squirrel or bird feeder might encourage a whole host of animals, while if you have a pond – make sure it’s been cleaned.

Merchants of sleep EADES & CO FOCUS ON PROVIDING LUXURY BEDS AT AN AFFORDABLE PRICE. ou cannot underestimate the importance of a good night’s sleep, and no one understands this better than John Eades.

John is the director at luxury bed specialist Eades & Co, a leading independent family business established in 1985.

Previously known as Discount Beds, he rebranded in 2020 to focus on providing luxury beds at an affordable price. Their Alderson Road showroom has a large selection of beds, mattresses, headboards, pillows… namely everything you need to ensure you get the best night’s sleep.

“We really believe that taking the time to try beds in a showroom is important,” John said. “We want you to have a proper lie down and take the time you need to select the right bed or mattress for you.”

The mattress is perhaps the most important aspect of any bed and Eades & Co stock exquisite styles from Harrison

Y

Spinks as well as their own bespoke selection.

Harrison Spinks is a fifth generation family business, handcrafting premium luxury mattresses since 1840, and is recognised as one of the country’s most established, innovative and sustainable bed manufacturers. All mattresses are 100 per cent foam, glue and FR chemical treatment free and fully recyclable – better for a healthy sleep and kinder to the planet.

You’ll find five different ranges of Harrison Spinks beds and mattresses in store at Eades & Co, making them the largest stockists in South Yorkshire.

Eades & Co’s mattresses are similarly sustainable and ethically produced, utilising materials that will provide the best breathability, comfort and luxury.

“All our beds and mattresses are put together with passion and care by our craftsmen,” added John. “We looked for the best steel for our pocket springs that

will provide years of tailored support and, cocooned with the highest quality covers, they produce a perfect indulgent nights sleep.

“We only make our beds for you and we are that sure of the quality we put our name on them.”

Indeed, so sure of the quality is John that all Eades & Co mattresses are covered by a full five-year guarantee.

Browse the spacious showroom and you’ll find an exclusive hand-sourced range of fine bed frames in contemporary and traditional styles from the likes of Bentley Designs, Swanglen and Friendship Mill.

If you’re just in the market for a new headboard, you’ll be impressed by the luxuriously soft and alluring plush range from Eades & Co. and Bentley Designs that are sure to complement your style.

“Our staff know beds and can help narrow the choice down to your needs,” concluded John. “We will give you the time and space to try them, have freshly brewed Pollards coffee and a large free car park. Pop down today.”

Eades & Co offer a two-man professional delivery service – from £1 for local delivery.

Elizabethan treasure REDISCOVER YOUR SENSE OF ADVENTURE WITH A VISIT TO ONE OF DERBYSHIRE’S NOTED HOUSES, HARDWICK HALL. BY MARIA ILIFFE.

041 SSide Mar22 09/02/2022 12:55 Page 1

FEATURE

ith spring drawing nearer, we welcome back the outdoor activities, walks and visits that keep us active and adventurous. After a long pandemic and this winter trapping us inside our warm, cosy homes, it may feel like a long time since we appreciated the world around us.

Derbyshire has so much to offer, from the stunning Peak District scenery to endless fun-fuelled family days out, but often underappreciated, is the local history and architecture. Nestled in the heart of the county, stands Hardwick Hall, tall and proud with stunning detail and exceptional design.

Renowned as an Elizabethan treasure, Hardwick House remains an exceptional reminder of the era. Built in the 16th century for the formidable Bess of Hardwick, the Old Hall remains an architectural amaze surrounded by 2,000 acres of parkland.

Married four times, each time to a wealthier and more influential man, Bess had eight children, and a life worthy of a Hollywood blockbuster. Standing as one of the most remarkable women of the Tudor era, she was married at 15, wedded at 16 and already re-married at 19. More than twice her age, second husband, Sir William Cavendish, was a senior auditor in King Henry VIII’s Court of Augmentations, titling her Lady Cavendish. However, during the reign of King Edward VI, Cavendish was the Treasurer to the young king, moving he and Bess to the highest levels of society.

With their marriage ending in 1557, William later passed leaving Bess with six children, the recently acquired Chatsworth Estate and The Chatsworth House she built with her husband, still a local treasure today.

Known more for her marriages than for her successes, Bess continued to wed for further wealth and did so very successfully. Only two years later she became Lady St Loe, married to Sir William St Loe, Captain of the Guard to Queen Elizabeth and Chief Butler of England. With his passing in 1564, Bess become one of the wealthiest women in England; her annual income was calculated to amount to £60,000 – equivalent to £27million in 2021.

Waiting for the right man and time to marry again, Bess chose the Earl of Shrewsbury, later resulting in their shared custody of protection over Mary, Queen

Requested by her cousin, Queen Elizabeth, Mary remained on house arrest for 25 years across the couple’s properties: Tutbury Castles, Wingfield Manor, Chatsworth House, and Sheffield Manor. Throughout this period, Bess spent time as Mary’s companion, working with her on embroidery and textile projects, including the Oxburgh hangings.

“Hardwick Hall’s insightful exhibitions show how Bess transformed her birthplace from a medieval manor house into a luxurious Elizabethan mansion.”

On his death in 1590, Bess became Dowager Countess of Shrewsbury, she lived mostly at Hardwick, where she built the new mansion Hardwick Hall and was indeed one of the greatest builders of her time.

Bess enlisted the help of Robert Smythson for design, which in itself was pretty radical, but the building design was also a bold step exploring new ideas of the time. Large glazed windows adorn the Hall and inside the three floors take you on something of a magical mystery tour, with elaborate rooms designed to wow.

Passing in 1609, Bess of Hardwick was aged 81 and still one of the richest and most powerful women in the kingdom.

With her last marriage, to the Earl of Shrewsbury, declaring her one of the highest women at court, she - next to the Queen - was the most powerful woman in the country. Now living on in her numerous building projects, innovative interior decor and exceptional 42 www.sheffieldvibe.com

and textiles for her properties, she requested preservation after her passing.

Now the 400-year-old collection is known as the Hardwick Hall textiles; the finest collections of Elizabethan tapestries and embroideries in Europe, including the Gideon tapestries and Noble Women embroidered wall hangings.

Almost every room in the Hall proudly displays tapestry and embroidery work on the walls, protected by her descendents and relatives years later. Hardwick Hall is also home to insightful exhibitions and audio guides depicting Bess’ life, work and achievements, including the interior décor/tapestries and her adventure into architecture. A second exhibition on the first floor explores the change of taste in architecture and building methods during the Elizabethan age. The house shows how she transformed her birthplace from a medieval manor house into a luxurious Elizabethan mansion.

The location provides a great day out for all the family, exploring the new and Old Hall, with many visitors coming back after running out of time to see and do everything. The tours include roof tours, with extra access to the buildings, and amazing views of the grounds and gardens.

IN BRIEF

Back to the eighties

Back for spring Independent makers and retailers will be back at Crystal Peaks on 2 April as Peaks Uniques makes a return.

Peaks Uniques is the new attraction for the award-winning Sheffield shopping centre, an opportunity for small businesses and individual designers and makers to reach a new market.

The first Peaks Uniques, last September, attracted more than 30 stalls featuring everything from bath products to houseplants, greetings cards, art works, jewellery and pet accessories - all created by independent artists and craftspeople.

The event proved so successful with visitors that a spring market is now booked in for 9am to 4pm on April 2, with spaces for up to 45 stalls throughout the centre.

“At Crystal Peaks we are always very keen to support local independents and individuals,” said centre manager Lee Greenwood.

“We know from the success of our first event that our visitors really enjoyed the chance to see a great new range of products.

“The emphasis was on the unique, bespoke, quirky and interesting - the sort of products that differ from what we already offer in our stores and existing marketplace.”

Businesses wanting to apply to take can email customerservices@crystalpeaks.uk.com for an application form or visit crystalpeakscentre.com for more information.

Growing confidence Chatsworth is launching its first children’s gardening club to allow young budding growers to nurture their very own growing patch throughout the seasons.

The Little Pips Gardening Club for children aged 3-5 will be filled with hands-on sessions growing fruit, vegetables and flowers, as well as lots of creative activities to give nature a helping hand from making butterfly feeding stations and a wormery to planting bee-friendly plants.

The fortnightly club launches 7 March with a sunflower planting session with other seasonal activities lined up for the months ahead to include making a pea propagator in April; going on a bumblebee safari in May and harvesting pumpkins planted earlier in the year in October.

The sessions will take place in the outdoor learning centre, Chatsworth’s Stickyard, where the children will be growing their own produce in specially created raised beds for vegetables, fruit and flowers, and having a go at watering, weeding and making sure all the plants are happy.

For more information please visit www.chatsworth.org.

Chatsworth House and Garden will reopen to visitors on 26 March.

The shoulders are big, the hair is bigger…it’s back to the ‘80s as Woodseats Musical Theatre Company return to the stage with a new production of romantic favourite The Wedding Singer!

Inspired by the hit Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore movie, it’s a classic comedy romance about a wedding singer, a waitress and two weddings where things definitely don’t go as planned. Throw in a fake Tina Turner, Billy Idol, Imelda Marcos, Cyndi Lauper, Mr T and even a Ronald Reagan lookalike and the stage is set for a show that captures all the hedonistic fun of the 1980s.

The Woodseats production runs at Sheffield’s Montgomery Theatre from July 13 to 16 and is directed by Ian Walker, with musical direction by Dominic Ridler and choreography

by Lily Abram and Amber Parry.

“Following the massive disappointment of seeing our 2020 production of Anything Goes being hit by Covid, we are delighted to be getting back on stage at the Montgomery with this great new show,” said Woodseats chairman Mary Newey.

“It’s full of fantastic music plus vibrant, energetic dance routines and it takes us back to a time when hair was big, collars were up and a wedding singer could be the coolest guy in the room.”

Tickets for The Wedding Singer are already on sale. Call 0114 2644803 or 07534 707079 or email tickets@woodseatsmtc.co.uk

Swashbuckling classic for 50th birthday celebration A band of lusty buccaneers, a bevy of beautiful sisters, a troop of timid bobbies on the beat, the very model of a modern Major General, and a young pirate apprentice on the eve of his 21st birthday… or is he?

Dore Gilbert and Sullivan Society celebrate their 50th anniversary with a vibrant new production of one of the most popular comic operettas of all time.

The acclaimed Sheffield company was launched back in 1972 and since then The Pirates of Penzance has always been one of the society’s enduring and frequently revived shows.

Now they’re setting sail again on a swashbuckling adventure in search of riotous comedy and magical music that comes to the Montgomery Theatre in Surrey Street from 6-9 April.

This colourful new production is directed by Graham Weston, with musical direction by Martin Yates.

“Dore are well known for presenting classic Gilbert and Sullivan and The Pirates of Penzance was one of our earliest shows so it seemed the perfect time to revisit what has always been one of Gilbert and Sullivan’s greatest and most enduring hits,” said society chairman Alan Wade.

“This is our 50th anniversary celebration and after the disappointment of not being able to go ahead with our last show because of Covid restrictions, we want to make sure that both cast and audience have a truly memorable experience.”
