Christmas bells and Bowen too
Well, if you’re The De La Warr Pavilion, it’s with zany Lorraine Bowen.
Last Sunday saw the Britain’s Got Talent semi-finalist golden buzzer act grace the De La Warr Pavilion stage once again.

Hide AdBowen’s enthusiastic and involving show thrilled the audience when she arrived in a sparkley dress and red tinsel around her neck, Bowen commanding a full house. She was accompanied by a scratch choir (who had spent the day rehearsing in a Bowen-led workshop), a professional bell ringer and, in parts, the audience.
The night was a medley of classic Christmas songs: Winter Wonderland, Silent Night, The Fairytale of New York, Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas and of course Bowen’s claim to fame, The Crumble Song, (Christmas edition). To round off a magical evening we were treated to a film - the seasonal classic Meet Me In St Louis, starring Judy Garland, Margaret O’Brien, Mary Astor and Lucille Bremner., Including the timeless Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.
Overall the evening was very entertaining and festive. The atmosphere was great and everyone got involved. Thanks to the De La Warr and Lorraine Bowen for a fun festive frolic.
