I totally agree with you Garinda about the pap in Hyndburn but we don't put on shows over in Burnley either. I wouldn't say that Burnley is the centre for the arts either because the Mechanics (nothing to do with MPA btw) has the same sort of stuff on as Ossy Civic - tribute bands, comedians and the odd kids show, they just have more on every week rather than the random stuff that's on at Ossy Civic.

I've submitted proposals to the Council for how they could make Ossy Civic profitable with different types of acts and alway been told 'stop trying to take over our theatre'.
