The Carvin Jones Band (USA)

Eric Clapton once said “Carvin Jones is a young cat out of Phoenix who I think is the next up-and-coming blues player”.  'The Phoenix Thunderbolt', and 'the fastest cat in the west', is one of the most amazing guitarist / entertainers you’ll ever come across in rock/blues. Playing Hendrix style guitar he has all the guitar tricks, licks and more. Last time at the Limelight his show was a sell out so get your tickets early.

Tickets  £12 / £10 (concessions)

The Queens Park Arts CentreWelcome

The Limelight Theatre is part of the Queens Park Arts Centre,  a lively, community arts centre. It is a registered charity and offers a range of over fifty arts and craft workshops for all ages and abilities in a friendly and informal setting, taught by experienced and dedicated tutors.

Queens Park Arts Centre houses the Limelight Theatre, Aylesbury's exciting fringe venue. This offers a full programme of professional theatre, music and dance often hot from the Edinburgh Festival and London Fringe. It is an intimate theatre with a great reputation and friendly bar.

The bar at the Queens Park Arts Centre opens at 7pm on Rocking the Blues nights and the Limelight Theatre will be open at 8pm with live music from around 8.15/8.30pm depending on the line up and a finish time by 11pm. Support The Queens Park Centre and Limelight Theatre as it is a charity and has very little local funding. Don't forget the centre usually get's in some real ale for blues nights.

To avoid disappointment, we recommend you get your tickets in advance by calling the theatre box office on 01296 424332  ( 01296 431272 24hrs). Tickets will be available on the door subject to availability.  For more information call  Tel 01296 634991 or visit www.qpc.org and book online.

You can purchase tickets in advance for any of the future gigs on a Rocking the Blues night or any on any other night or day when the Queens Park Arts Centre is open.
