Brand New Show for 2024!

Touring March - May 2024 - booking now

Our new show 'Old King Coal' is an unashamedly nostalgic retrospective of life in the North of England in days gone by. The stories and songs are a mixture of well-known and original and all feature the fascinating stories and histories you didn't know (!) that hide behind them.

And, it's not all about coal either - places, events, and characters of the North all rub shoulders with tales of the pit. Join us for a fascinating and fun evening in the company of Old King Coal

Following the proven format of earlier Fool's Gold shows, Old King Coal is a mixture of live acoustic music, featuring the amazing stories and histories that created the songs, all backed by projected images. The songs are both original and very well-known. There's plenty for audiences to identify with and join in with - audience participation is always a big part of our shows! There are funny moments and much more poignant tales too, but there is always something for everyone.
