While setting out the A-board and chairs at St Helen’s Church this afternoon, Kevin told me there’s a good concert tonight, part of the Music at the Unicorn at St Helens Church. He said the acoustics in the church are excellent.

Tonight (4th June), St Helen’s hosts True Foxes, an alt-country/Americana cousin duo from Cornwall, with support from sibling duo Painted Sky (Holly and George Brandon). The concert runs from 7pm to 10.30pm.

At the back of the church are posters advertising other forthcoming events in Abingdon and beyond.

On Saturday, 6th June, the Hurst Ensemble presents An Evening of Viennese Musical Genius at St Helen’s Church from 7.30pm, with Mozart and Brahms.

The Unicorn Theatre hosts The Merry Wives of Windsor (Abingdon Edition) on Wednesday, 10th June. Shakespeare’s comedy follows two clever women who join forces to outwit the boastful Sir John Falstaff. This special Abingdon-set production will be the last play at the Unicorn before the theatre closes for its major refurbishment.

On Saturday, 13th June, One Planet Abingdon presents Wear It Out – Sustainable Fashion, celebrating eco-fashion, upcycling and clothing repair as part of Oxfordshire’s Great Big Green Week. Free activities and workshops will run throughout the day, while tickets can be bought for a 2pm fashion show.

Also on 13th June, the Abingdon & District Musical Society (ADMS) performs Joseph Haydn’s The Creation at St Helen’s Church, beginning at 7.30pm.
