The Ragdolls - Corn Exchange Theatre

The Ragdolls will be performing at Corn Exchange Theatre on Friday 13 September.

Organisers say: "During the first half of the show they perfectly recreate the iconic sounds of the "Four Seasons" taking you back to where it all began, performing the classic 50's songs as the "Four Seasons" once did. Hits include 'Still of the Night' 'Oh Carol' 'Teenager in Love' and 'Why do Fools Fall in Love'."
