Festival countdown – 6  days to go

Pick of the festival: Fyfe Hutchins

He is more accustomed to playing before thousands in huge concert halls and at outdoor festivals, but on Wednesday 15 July, Guillemots leader Fyfe Dangerfield reverts to being Fyfe Hutchins, and plays solo piano in the intimate surroundings of Lichfield Cathedral's Lady Chapel. See and hear one of Britain's most talented young composers and players up close.

Jeremy Hardy for Festival

One of the country's sharpest comedians, Jeremy Hardy, returns to Lichfield with his new stand-up show. Jeremy is perhaps best remembered as a much younger man, but there is nothing he can do about that now. Still alive and able to speak unaided for lengthy periods, this show will be not so much be a one-man show as an under-staffed cavalcade.
A former winner of both the Best Live Performer at the British Comedy Awards and the prestigious Perrier Award at the Edinburgh Fringe, Jeremy is now a member of Radio 4's News Quiz team as well as regularly appearing on I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue and Just A Minute.
He will be appearing at the Lichfield Garrick Theatre on Thursday 16 July. More information and booking here
