The first sell-out performance of the brand-new musical Walk Right Back, the Everly Brothers story, written by the producers of successful That’ll Be The Day, delivered an entertaining concert at the Folly Farm Theatre. The concert-based musical benefited local charity, Paul Sartori Hospice at Home.

Event organiser, Phil Thompson MBE, said: “We were honoured to host the first ever performance of this wonderful show before it went on the official tour throughout England. A huge thanks to the producers of the That’ll Be The Day for providing the show, and of course to Folly Farm for their continued support.”

Proceeds from the concert given to the Paul Sartori Hospice at Home amounted to £9,993.

Paul Sartori’s, community fundraiser, Toni Dorkings, said: “We were delighted that Phil Thompson MBE was able to secure this concert in aid of Paul Sartori. The show was wonderful and the funds raised from the proceeds were amazing.”
