Spent a glorious evening over at The Farmhouse and The Meadows at Polehanger (polehanger.co.uk) getting some new footage for this year's show trailers! An incredible spot tucked away in the Bedfordshire countryside, barns as old as the hills and perfectly secluded! www.vintageverse.co.uk

The last show of the season this year is going to be back on home ground in the stunning Mountford Hall at Hitchin Town Hall! With just the one show in Hitchin this year, it's promising to be a spectacular conclusion to a very busy fortnight! Tickets on sale at : www.vintageverse.co.uk

Clearly I'm not getting to these venue announcements quickly enough! The Swan Southwold plays host to two performances of our favourite Christmas tale on the last Sunday before the big day and one has sold out already, so get in soon for those last seats! www.vintageverse.co.uk

Another new venue for 2025! Out in the Suffolk countryside near Diss, the incredibly atmospheric Wingfield Barns plays host to the classic tale of Christmas this December! As always, tickets on sale at www.vintrageverse.co.uk now!

Venue #5 is another pub and theatre (a very fitting combination in my view), this time at The Brunswick Pub & Theatre in Hove. I shall be bringing a slice of Dickens to the south coast on December 19th! As always, tickets all on sale at : www.vintageverse.co.uk

Venue #4 this year is another little gem that's coming back for two shows! This gorgeous little theatre tucked into the attic of the Town and Gown Pub & Theatre - Cambridge is a wonderfully intimate spot and I can't wait to get back! Booking open now! www.vintageverse.co.uk

Venue #3 this year is a little gem right by London Bridge! With the smallest capacity, the trickiest entrance and the earliest start, @oldoptheatre.bsky.social is unique in many ways but well worth the effort! Tickets are well over 50% sold for both shows! www.vintageverse.co.uk

*NEW ALBUM ANNOUNCEMENT* We are delighted to announce the upcoming release of Lost Measures! Released on September 26th. Pre-order your copy now, only via our website (for CDs) or our BandCamp. We hope you love it www.leveretband.com (CDs / download) www.leveretband.bandcamp.com (download)

Venue number 2 this year is a return to Friargate Theatre in the heart of York for FOUR shows starting on December the 11th! This gorgeous little studio theatre just yards from the banks of the Ouse was an absolute treat to perform at last year and I can't wait to get back. www.vintageverse.co.uk

Venue number 1 on this year's roster sees a return to David's Bookshop Cafe for the first show of the season! With a spangly little refit happening soon, it's going to be a slightly reduced capacity so get in early if you'd like to be there, over 20% sold already! www.vintageverse.co.uk#shows

Nothing says it's time to plan for Christmas like the start of the summer holidays, but that's what I've been up to, so I'm dragging you into it too. All shows are now online and a couple of them are over half sold, which is bit crazy. Stick a pin in your favourite show now at www.vintageverse.co.uk
