No chance of being Brassed Off for Clifton & Lightcliffe

Clifton & Lightcliffe has enjoyed their chance to win a National title on stage — and it certainly hasn't Brassed them Off...

Clifton and Lightcliffe
 

Clifton & Lightcliffe is the latest band to take to the stage to perform in a sold out production of 'Brassed Off!'

Packed audience

The Yorkshire outfit gave the first of six performances on Monday night at the Bingley Little Theatre, after which they and the cast received a standing ovation from the packed audience.

We have really enjoyed it and we have been asked to take part in yet another run of performances in September at the Karla Sangam theatre in BradfordBand spokesperson Jane Clay

More to come

Band spokesperson Jane Clay told 4BR: "This is the fourth time the band has taken part in the production — the last time being at the Alhambra Theatre in Bradford two years ago.

We have really enjoyed it and we have been asked to take part in yet another run of performances in September at the Karla Sangam theatre in Bradford."
