Demonstrable appreciation for Things Found in Books show Sunday night 6th July.

Last call for Things Found In Books - 3rd concert of a national tour by Scottish chanteuse Yvonne Lyon and (Eddie Reader's wingman), guitarist/singer-songwriter Boo Hewerdine at Mellor Brook this Sunday, 6th July.
The audience has opportunity to be part of the story: Yvonne and Boo invite ticket holders to bring along their own “things found in books” - those forgotten treasures tucked between pages: photos, notes, letters, tickets, drawings… anything that tells a story. These objects may be shared during the show or simply placed on a touring “story table” to become part of the atmosphere. It’s a beautiful way to connect personal histories with this moving performance.
