Back by popular demand, George Hinchliffe’s Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain returns to the Wilson Center following their sold-out 2018 concert! A global sensation and nothing short of a UK national treasure, the Ukes of GB have performed for the British Royal Family, the BBC Proms, Sydney Opera House, and Carnegie Hall, but heretics they remain, poking fun at the cultural elite, defying you to believe their own hype, bemused by all the hot air. They are masters of the unexpected, whether re-imagining folk songs, twisting classical music favorites, uncovering quirky versions of rock covers, or playing the performers’ own original compositions.
PERFORMANCE UPDATE: Due to a travel ban involving countries they had recently visited on their tour, the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain will not be able to travel to the United States. While we were very excited to share these wonderful artists with our audiences, scheduling at this time does not make it possible for us to rebook the performance. All ticket buyers are being offered a credit toward a future Wilson Center presented performance. This credit will not ever expire, and to thank you for your support of the Wilson Center and our arts community as a whole, we have some special benefits to offer you when you have applied this credit toward a performance! Please contact our Box Office at 262-781-9520 and they will be happy to explain these benefits to you and assist you with your tickets. Our Box Office is open Mondays-Fridays from 11am-6pm. We truly appreciate your understanding and support at this unprecedented time, and we look forward to seeing you soon!
