The Blues Brothers

A manic musical romp that still sings today ” Scott Tobias The Guardian

We couldn’t resist getting the blues mobile to drop by ahead of a very special Blues Brothers screening.
After the release of Jake Blues (John Belushi) from prison, he and brother Elwood (Dan Aykroyd) go to visit the orphanage where they were raised by nuns. They learn that the church stopped its support and will sell the place unless the tax on the property is paid within 11 days. The brothers attempt to raise the money by putting their band back together and staging a gig.

They may be on a mission from God but they’re making enemies everywhere they go. Featuring performances by some of the blues finest including James Brown, Cab Calloway, Ray Charles & Aretha Franklin. Bring the family, bring yourself but don’t miss this one-off day celebrating THE BLUES BROTHERS!
