BOP Local Productions are pleased to announce a very special event on Wednesday 23rd May. This will be a special opportunity to hear live music and poetry in an intimate setting at Chorlton Irish Club, whilst enjoying a three course meal.

Tickets are £30 per person. There are 10 places on all 12 tables (so only 120 people max).

The first two courses will be provided by our chef for the evening, Kim H Merritt, who has catered for numerous superstars over the years - including Madonna, U2 and Bob Dylan - before making his mark on some of Manchester's top restaurants and bars, such as The Beaujolais, Dry Bar and Reform.

Dinner will be followed by coffee and chocolates supplied by Simon Dunn Chocolatier - one of the latest additions to Chorlton.

Entertainment will include a special guest starting with a secret close-up magician. This will be followed by award-winning performance poet, Mike Garry, who'll be delivering some extracts from his recent God is a Manc book. Then, to end the evening, there will be a set from I Am Kloot's John Bramwell.

The DJ and compere for the evening is Bop Local's Phil Beckett, plus there will be a raffle - with all proceeds being donated to The National Autistic Society.

Tickets are £30 per person. There are 10 places on all 12 tables (so only 120 people max).

The evening starts at 7pm and finishes at 11.30pm. As with all Bop Local nights, tickets will be available via boplocal.com or at On the Corner, Beech Road, Chorlton.
