The Magnificent AKS The Singing Blokes of Ashton Keynes

About the show

Under the nurturing tutelage of their glorious leader, Chris Samuel, this is a men’s singing group capable of lowering the tone and raising a laugh simultaneously in any setting with deep, Georgian-inspired harmonies and serious silliness.

The AKs sing all sorts of material a capella. They create a sound that has been described by several wives as ‘surprisingly good’ and finish in good time for the bar.

Magnificent AKs sing right across, despite and beyond, the musical spectrum, from serious Georgian choral pieces, through the odd Wagnerian operatic piece, to less intellectual stuff employing hats and related costumery.

“Our performances are entirely suitable for all the family,” says Chris.

“Having said which, some of our repertoire is sung in Georgian and Old German and we’re not at all sure what the words mean. Any offence given to Georgians or Old Germans is entirely unintentional and the same goes for Swindon girls, of whom most of us are very fond.

We are a total, unforgettable experience and guarantee exhilarating entertainment.”

Advance tickets are £14. On the door on the night they will cost £16.
