Dmitry Shostakovich

Dmitri Dmitriyevich Shostakovich (25 September [O.S. September 12] 1906 – 9 August 1975) was a Russian composer of the Soviet period and one of the most celebrated composers of the 20th century. Shostakovich achieved fame in the Soviet Union under the patronage of Leon Trotsky's chief of staff Mikhail Tukhachevsky, but later had a complex and difficult relationship with the Stalinist bureaucracy. His music was officially denounced twice, in 1936 and 1948, and was periodically banned. Yet he also received accolades and state awards and served in the Supreme Soviet of RSFSR.

Terry Garoghan

There's is no better person to lead you through the streets and suburbs of Brighton than the self appointed Unofficial Mayor himself. Terry carries the whole show single handed, for this is his affectionate tribute to the place where he was born and bred. The local paper called it "brilliant and witty". It is also a big bellylaugh in a naughty seaside postcard kind of way. Quintessentially Brighton is Brighton the Musical.
