The Hound of the Baskervilles
When: Friday 4 November
Where: Mansfield Palace Theatre

A classic tale told in an exciting new way.

For a fantastic story executed by fantastic talents, grab yourself a ticket.
Sancho Panza
When: Friday 4 November, 6.30pm
Where: Rescue Rooms
How much: £8
Show your support for one of Nottingham’s most exciting up-and-coming acts as Sancho Panza take over the Rescue Rooms this Friday. They’ve already received high praise from Jake Bugg and featured on Radio 1’s Future Sounds show, but we reckon that’s just the beginning. Supported by Fat Bamboo and GOODGOODBYE, this is a perfect night for checking out the city’s next generation of icons.
Fozzy
When: Sunday 6 November, 6.30pm
Where: Rock City
How much: £22.50
Ayyyyy! Wait, sorry, we read that wrong. Fozzy are the legendary metal band fronted by none other than Chris Jericho (yes, that Chris Jericho). A fan of proper rock music? You’re in luck. A fan of WWE? You’re in luck. A fan of both? Well, this might be your dream come true…
We have a favour to ask
LeftLion is Nottingham’s meeting point for information about what’s going on in our city, from the established organisations to the grassroots. We want to keep what we do free to all to access, but increasingly we are relying on revenue from our readers to continue. Can you spare a few quid each month to support us?
