As part of our annual programme of shows, we have been presenting traditional music hall bills at Brick Lane Music Hall since 1992.

This week sees two shows, on Wednesday March 21st and Thursday March 22nd. Both shows will be led by Vincent Hayes (pictured above with Paul James) and will include Brick Lane Music Hall regulars Paul James, Bill Byrne and Lucy Reed, together with Joni Talks, who makes a welcome return to Brick Lane Music Hall for her first appearance since March 2017. (Pictured top, singing Marie Lloyd’s “My Old Man”.)

This will be a rare opportunity to see Joni perform alongside Bill Byrne (pictured together below), singing hauntingly beautiful Ivor Novello clasics, such as “We’ll Gather Lilacs in the Spring”.

The shows will also be an opportunity to see Lucy Reed performing classic medleys, including a Florrie Forde medley with such well-known Music Hall numbers as “Down at the Old Bull and Bush” (push, push!).
