Passage 1

Announcer 1: Thanks for the news update. And it's Thursday evening, time to start planning the weekend, and time to hear from Jenny with our weekly update, What's On in Town.

Announcer 2: Thanks, Mark.

Announcer 1: What's it going to be Jenny? A weekend in front of the television, or out on the town?

Announcer 2: Definitely out on the town, Mark. It's a fun-filled weekend, with something for everyone. For anyone who likes classical music, there's Beethoven's Ninth Symphony in the Westgate Concert Hall on Friday evening.

Announcer 1: That's the one with that catchy tune …

Announcer 2: I don't think the Southbank Choir will let you join in with a voice like that! Tickets are £10, with concessions for students and senior citizens, and it starts at 8 pm.

Announcer 1: OK, and what's on at the cinema?

Announcer 2: I've got a couple of suggestions. For those of you who like Chinese movies, there's a retrospective on Zhang Yimou's films beginning with The House of the Flying Daggers at the Arthouse Cinema in North Street. If you haven't seen, it's amazing. It's on at 7 pm on Saturday night. And other films showing next week include Hero, and Raise the Red Lantern. Tickets are £12, with the usual concessions.

Announcer 1: How about a Hollywood blockbuster?

Announcer 2: Not sure I'd call it a blockbuster, but the next part of Lord of the Rings is showing at Globe Cinema. It's on Friday and Saturday at 7.30 pm, tickets £8.

Announcer 1: OK, Lord of the Rings, that's a great series. Now, how about something more cultural?

Announcer 2: There's a fabulous exhibition at the Smith Museum called "The Art of Venice", with a collection of paintings from all over the world. It's open from 10 am to 6 pm on Saturday and Sunday and entrance is free.

Announcer 1: OK, sounds good. And what about the music scene?

Announcer 2: Friday night is open mic night at the George Inn. If you want to hear some great music, it starts at 8.30 pm Friday night. But if you want to find out what it's like to perform in front of a live audience, book a slot with the organizers and they'll sing, play, dance, whatever … Nice friendly atmosphere, but make sure you've got a five or ten minute act before you offer to try it out onstage. No entrance fee, but you'll need to buy a round or two of drinks.

Announcer 1: Anything else?

Announcer 2: Yes, it's jazz at the Jam Factory on Saturday night from 10 pm, with the Steve Reid Trio playing Afro-Cuban jazz. With tickets at £20 I guess the Jam Factory is going to be the coolest place in town. So I advise you to book in advance.

Announcer 1: Sounds like a great weekend, thanks Jenny.
