Lovesick Poachers: Serenade
I suppose you could say these guys are our “house band”. They last sang for us in Lizzie Lavelle and are likely to break into song at the drop of a hat
- Festival Director
Gamekeepers aren’t the only ones with feelings. On the vast estates of the big houses a broken heart is just extra baggage when you’re trying to outwit both man and beast by just the light of the moon. A pair of unlikely troubadours will serenade you when you least expect it, armed with soulful melodies and a twinkle in the eye.
