Anyone in the UK interested in going?
========================================== June 22, 2012, Press Dispensary. Benedict Cumberbatch, Miranda Richardson and Egyptian film star Amr Waked have today been announced as the latest additions to the Cheltenham Music Festival line-up. These stellar actors will perform in three separate performances which combine music with words this July. Cheltenham Music Festival runs from 4-15 July 2012. Tickets for all events, including those listed below, are available now from cheltenhamfestivals.com / 0844 880 8094 --------------------------------------------------------- MIRANDA RICHARDSON NARRATES THE STORY OF ROYAL MUSIC Perhaps best known for her comedic roles as petulant Queenie in the BBC’s sitcom Blackadder and devious journalist Rita Skeeter in the film adaptation of J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Miranda Richardson has had a long and illustrious career, winning two Golden Globes and a BAFTA along the way. We’re thrilled that she will be joining us to tell the story of music written for royal occasions, in a concert that includes music by Handel, Parry, Elgar and Walton. It also includes music by royalty itself - Henry VIII and Prince Albert. Performers include the Cheltenham Bach Choir, Schola Cantorum of Tewkesbury Abbey and the Flowers Brass Band.

Hi, I'm new to this forum but I'm a big Miranda fan. I am going to Britain (London) on that very day with a few friends and I'm just dying to see Miranda! It would be a dream coming true to see her in person! (I'd prefer a theatre performance, but if she's not making any, you know...) So, I made a crazy plan of going to Cheltenham, which is about 2,5 hours journey, but none of my friends, not very surprisingly :-), wants to accompany me... So I really don't know, I am kind of scared to travel there alone... Is there really no English fan wanting to go around here? Maybe we could meet and have a nice Miranda-loving evening..? Sir Edmund, are you from London?
(Sorry for any grammar mistakes, but I am sure you are all used to them :-) )

Never mind. I gave up and didn't go there, but I believe that there will be another chance to see her in person...;-)

Sorry you didn't get to go Jenny. I would have gone in a heartbeat if I had enough money to fly and stay in London!!!!
