March 9 2012
It's a busy weekend ahead for you lucky Haveners, with a fine mixture of sport, theatre, music and much more to keep you amused and entertained, including top local band The Riffz at The Ark on Saturday night.
Yes the weekend is almost here once again and it kicks off tonight with the
ultimate Haven football face-off, as
Seaford Town Reserves take on
Newhaven Town Reserves at
The Crouch from 7.30pm. Although Seaford will have the home ground advantage, it's anyone's game, so get those thermals on and get along and cheer your home side.
Also from 7.30pm you can stay in the warm and catch
Seaford Musical Juniors as they continue the successful run of their latest production,
Carry On Up The Beanstalk at The Barn Theatre, Saxon Lane, Seaford . This time the Juniors are showcasing their acting as part of the
Mayor's Mad March Marathon, a series of events taking place throughout March in aid of Seaford charity,
WAVES. They'll also be performing for the last time on Saturday at 2.30pm.
It wouldn't be Friday night without something on offer from the
Seaford Folk Club and this week
Lynne Heraud and Pat Turner, "Two of the most established and experienced singers on the folk scene", take to the upstairs stage at Seaford British Legion from 8pm.
As ever, Friday night is music night up at the
Hampden Arms in South Heighton, where rock band
Jelly Head are back by popular demand. They start rocking at around 8.30pm.
Now brace yourselves; Saturday's a packed one...
