The Barron Knights

"Fresh, funny, superb playersand vocally they are the best)" - Hank B. Marvin

The Barron Knights have been given a nick name from their peers “The Guv’nors”.

Since the early days of the sixties the Barron Knights have been admired for their musicianship and great vocal harmonies and having fourteen comedy hit records worldwide makes them truly unique. Never has there been another bunch of guys that have tried to emulate what the Barron Knights have achieved. Their wit, humour, musicianship and entertaining skills have been acknowledged by many famous people.

The show this year will have all the hits as well as songs that are from the soundtrack of the bands lives that bring back so many memories for so many folks. Pete will be playing a couple of classical pieces on the guitar. The William Tell Overture and the flamenco piece Malaguena will certainly be in the show as they have proved to be very popular.

The Barron Knights have always been known for their harmony and their three part harmony version of the Paul McCartney song ‘Blackbird’ is always requested. A few anecdotes will be told ‘cause there are many true stories that need to be heard that will certainly make the audience laugh.

Don’t miss you chance to this show it was sold out last year, so book your seats early!

The Empire Theatre Halstead was revived as a place of entertainment in 1978 after a period of inactivity that stretched back to 1971 when the Foulconbridge brother's tenure came to an end. Halstead Town Council bought the building and then leased it to the Empire Theatre Trust with the intention of restoring the Empire Theatre as a place for local entertainment that had been the envy of many similar sized towns during earlier decades of the 20th century.

Today the Empire Theatre is fully independently run by the Empire Theatre Trust which is made up of a collection of enthusiastic local residents giving their time on a voluntary basis. Many forms of entertainment are put on at the theatre including tribute acts, 60s concerts, country music, comedy, drama productions and pantomime - all making great use of a state of the art lighting desk and new sound equipment provided by trustees. more
