BRIGG WILL HOST 93rd NORTH LINCOLNSHIRE MUSIC AND DRAMA FESTIVAL FROM MARCH 4 TO 16

Most people call it Brigg Music Festival but the correct title is the North Lincolnshire Music and Drama Festival. And competitors and supporters of this cultural event are now getting ready for the 93rd festival, which will get under way in early March.
It must be about 20 years since the festival's spiritual home, the Corn Exchange, passed into history. But those who thought that might bring the curtain down on this annual North Lincs institution have been proved wrong. 
Music classes will be held from March 4 to 7 inclusive at St John's Church, Bigby Street; drama  will run from March 11 to 13, with Monday and Tuesday day-time classes in the Angel Suite, Wednesday day-time classes in St John's Church, and evening classes at the Westmoor Hall of the Vale Academy, off Grammar School Road.
The festival, as always, will round off with a concert and presentation of awards. This will be held on Saturday, March 16, from 6pm, at Westmoor House.
Reference to the music festival in Brigg will prompt many people to think of composers Percy Grainger, Frederic Delius, the classic Brigg Fair folk song/rhapsody, and the landowning Elwes family of the early 20th century.
