Andre Rieu

[Jean W]

As I said on another post some weeks ago, I would love to see Andre in concert. When he is next in our area, it is not possible for us.

Need we worry - no We went to the Cinema last night and witnessed a Live Broadcast of his concert from Maastricht. Absolutely fabulous Sitting in a Cinema lacked the atmosphere (obviously), but we were so, so lucky to have 'close-ups'!! Every single person in the 'cast' gave their all, including the absolutely splendid 'special' Orchestra at the end. Yes, I was in tears. They were an Orchestra of Physically and Mentally handicapped youngsters - they were so charming and happy. They will remember that experience for the rest of their lives. Humble, you bet.

Before that, something completely different - a guest appearance - Trini Lopez. If my Maths are correct - 76 and still going strong - still a lovely voice

The whole evening was absolutely superb.

This was our first experience of these Live Performances at Cinemas - it will definitely not be our last.

So pleased that you enjoyed the simulcast

We, at the Tivoli Theatre, Wimborne, Dorset were proud to have this live concert on our screen, this being our first dip into this live presentation media

The theatre was almost filled with a very appreciative audience of all ages

Thank you for your contribution.

As a matter of interest, have you tried to register with http://www.cinemalive.com (as per the programme we were given)? We tried yesterday and I have tried on numerous occasions today, to no avail. It may be our Computer, although everything else is OK

I hope you manage more of these events, We were told my a member of Staff that they are becoming very popular.

Dear Jean

Saturdays concert was beamed into circa 200 UK cinemas plus many theatres world wide

We have a sister theatre at Christchurch, Dorset " The Regent Centre"

They have put on many simulcasts i.e.. Ballet, Opera, musicals and recently a play from London's West End all well attended

No doubt we at the Tivoli will seek the most suitable simulcast for our rural Dorset and Uk patrons

I was unable to log into your link

Luboo and your lubberly dog

I'd certainly support the Tivoli if they managed to bring some West End plays to iWimborne

Thank you Brayman

We have had amassing support from our rural Dorset friends to restore this lovely Art Deco theatre sited in the heart of the beautiful Minster Market town of Wimborne

This very year we will be celebrating twenty years since the first brick was laid to restore "The Tivoli" It has been a very hard but inspiring twenty year slog

Pop in and see us - you could be privy to meet the Giant
