A bit new wave, a bit folk, a bit eccentric and a lot of fun, John Otway and Wild Willy Barrett are back on the road together with their "Nearly Free" tour. Their magnetic bond still holds after more than 40 years of attempted escapes, and they are still loved for their utterly unique, totally in-yer-face originality.
The contrast between Barrett's deadpan humour and Otway's mad onstage antics are hilarious to watch. They are matched by John's lyrical genius and Willy's outstanding musicianship - he can play almost every stringed instrument known to man, plus a few hybrids of his own making. Beware the Moose Homp!!
For any Otway/Barrett virgins out there who don't know what to expect, be prepared for everything from bare-chested theremin playing to wah wah wheelie bin as the duo jump from one hit and 40 near misses to another: An amazing and irreverent performance by two master entertainers.
Doors 7.30pm, on stage 8.00pm. Seating and standing available, arrive early to be guaranteed a seat.
Masham Town Hall is an imposing, Grade II listed stone building built in 1912 and opened in May 1913. Set up by a legacy from the 2nd Lord Masham, the Town Hall is at the heart of the busy, beautiful ansd historic market town of Masham in the Yorkshire Dales.
Providing recreational, cultural and educational events and meeting spaces for the residents of Mashamshire and our visitors, the Town Hall celebrated its centenary year in 2013 and is now running its busiest ever programme of events and activities.
The building contains an imposing Main Hall with a large raised stage on the first Floor, with a Small Hall, Committee / History Room, and kitchen facilities on the Ground Floor.
We host a busy programme of performances, films, meetings and classes, craft fairs and coffee mornings, and private hires from conferences to band practice. From nursery sessions through the Youth Club to Indoor Bowls, the Town Hall hosts events of interest to everybody in the Masham community.
The Town Hall is the perfect venue for your wedding reception, affordable and charming. Children's parties are bookable at a special rate for local families.
The entire building is accessible (upstairs via a lift) with induction loop facilities in the Main Hall and Small Hall.
The Town Hall would not still be here without decades of support from the Masham Steam Rally, which has gone from strength to strength since the 50th Rally in 2015 and is now acclaimed as the finest in the North.
