It’s your club. It’s your union. It’s your night.

[Spirit Of Shankly]

What better way for us to celebrate the end of the season (and our inaugural half season) by getting a load of reds under one roof after the last home game of the season and putting some music on for them?

 

We’ll tell you a better way. Put a play on about the man who made the people happy.

 

The Shankly Show

 

One actor, 45 minutes each way- first half in black and white with half time oranges, the second half in colour- possibly set in the infamous boot room at Anfield. An in depth documentary about the Liverpool Legend- a fusion of culture and sport- commissioned by Liverpool 2008. It’s a must see for any Liverpool supporter.

 

And that’s not all - The music:

 

James Walsh (Starsailor)

The Great Northwestern Hoboes

The Quarter

 

There’s going to be special guests and surprises that we can’t confirm right now but keep your eye on the forums for news as and when it arrives. The play starts at 7.30, doors are opening at 6pm, the music starts at 9 and we’re all staying out till 1am.

 

The Olympia. West Derby Road

 

Saturday May 3rd. 7.30pm start.

 

Price

£10 upstairs balconies

£14 downstairs

 

Tickets will be (from Wednesday) available from The Olympia, The HJC Shop and other outlets will be confirmed.

 

It’s your club. It’s your union. It’s your night.

If there's 1000 that's all right.

 

Dunno if i'm going yet and wanted if i'd be able to buy tickets close to the event.

The play is appaently based on two of the books by Liverpool fan Stephen F. Kelly. His biography of Shankly and his novel Mr Shankly's Photograph. I gather that quite a few of the legends are going to be there. It promises to be a great evening.

I can see we can buy the tickets online from the Olympia but it gives a different date, it says May 10th, not May 3rd?? As an out of towner I would love to come and combine it with the trip to the City game

Shame they have moved the game to the Sunday now

Still gonna go though

Is th HJC shop open on Sunday before the game??

[johngibo YPC]

Couple of queries about this if anyone can answer

Tickets say the 4th, so i presume its been moved to the Sunday to coincide with the game.

And nothing on the tickets about the play

Is this not on anymore???
