00:00Hi, I'm digital reporter Amy Seddon and welcome to another edition of Five Things to Do Next
00:06Week across central Lancashire and the Fylde Coast.
00:11First up, in Preston, Forget Me Not is on at the Preston Playhouse between Wednesday
00:16January 29th and Saturday February 1st. Presented by the Hall Players, Forget Me Not is a play
00:23written by David Tristram which is full of hilarious twists and turns. The show follows
00:29a man called Robert Seinfeld who claims he has lost his memory and Detective Inspector
00:34Munro who becomes more confused the deeper he digs. Tickets are £12 for adults and £11
00:41for senior citizens, students and children.
00:45In Chorley, Jap to Jap Car Rally is on at Heskin Hall on Sunday February 2nd. This monthly
00:52event which usually happens on the first Sunday of each month gives petrolheads the opportunity
00:58to unite for a day of all things vehicular. Hosted by Jap to Jap, the ultimate Japanese
01:04car club, the gates to the event open at 11am. To take part with a car it's £3 whilst
01:11motorbikes are free. Heskin Hall's Cafe at the Manor will also be open offering fresh
01:16food and there's a bar too.
01:20Slightly further out in Rivington, the iconic Pigeon Tower is having an open day on Saturday
01:26February 1st. Built between 1905 and 1909, the Pigeon Tower is the focal point of the
01:33Rivington Terraced Gardens and offers spectacular views of the surrounding Lancashire countryside.
01:40On the first Saturday of every month, its volunteer ambassadors open the Pigeon Tower
01:44for visitors to take a look inside. Attendees are asked for a donation for entry, all of
01:50which goes towards the maintenance and upkeep of the gardens.
01:54Over on the Fylde Coast, Boys Life are performing at the Winter Gardens Opera House on Friday
02:00January 31st. The supergroup, comprised of Boys Zone's Keith Duffy and Westlife's
02:06Brian McFadden, are currently on a UK tour celebrating the iconic and defining hits from
02:11both acts. During the show, which starts at 7.30pm, expect to hear a mixture of Boys Zone
02:18and Westlife classics. Tickets are still available, running from £34.75 to £47.95 for standard
02:27tickets, whilst VIP tickets are £166.75.
02:33Finally, a rather unusually named show is also on in Blackpool the same night that Boys
02:39Life are in town. The Toilet Paper Diaries is on at the Old Electric on Friday January
02:4431st. Running between 7pm and 8.30pm, the Toilet Paper Diaries is a semi-autobiographical
02:52play written and performed by Porcelain Delaney. It promises to be a heartbreaking and hilarious
02:59tale which anyone with endometriosis or another condition which has led to medical gaslighting
03:05will instantly recognise. Tickets are £8 and an age guidance of 14 plus is provided.
03:14So there are five top things to do next week, but whatever you're up to, have a good one.
