Join rock band I LOVE THUNDER and  special guests for a night to remember at Waterma’s Theatre on 26th October at 7.30pm. I Love Thunder are a band with a difference; most of them have some form of learning disability. 

Over the past 6 months they have been using their BBC Performing Arts Funding to jam with a series of performers from a variety of different genres. This show will be a celebration of these encounters and some of the magic they all experienced along the way.

The evening’s line up will feature the following acts performing on their own and then joining I Love Thunder to showcase some of the highlights from their work together.
