A country and folk duo consisting of Richard Pilkington (guitar) and Welsh singer Chrissy Mostyn, performing their own material with a beautiful style and a rising reputation on both sides of the Atlantic.
On their extensive recent tours they have played with such stars as Martin Carthy, Julie Felix and the Strawbs. This is their first visit to the north of Scotland.
Against the backdrop of the Hoy hills a group of local theatre enthusiasts has produced the unexpected. The Gable End is a delightful small theatre conversion of the former North Walls school building, boasting a 75-seat raked auditorium. The theatre has charitable status and is run by volunteers. One of its objectives is to provide a home for the amateur Hoy and Walls Entertainments Group, which stages an annual pantomime among other productions. The Gable End has also, however, attracted interest from professional players, from Britain and abroad, and musical events are a regular feature. The island of Hoy, with its population of about 400, lies a half-hour ferry ride away from the Houton terminal on the Orkney Mainland. more events at Gable End Theatre
