The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain
The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain – Last year marked the 40th anniversary of The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain, who, from their humble beginnings in small rooms above old pubs, took the world by storm with their off-beat humour and four-stringed virtuosity. Against the odds, ‘The Ukes’ soon became the unlikely superheroes of the international touring circuit, spreading their irrepressible magic from Australasia to the North Pole, from Windsor Castle to Carnegie Hall. After 40 years, The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain are still thrilling audiences with their all-singing, all-strumming, full throttle, foot-stomping concerts. Buckle up for a helter-skelter ride through every kind of musical genre with plenty of laughs along the way in an evening of Classical, Pop, Punk, Funk, Disco, Bluegrass and Metal.

Ms. White began her career performing as an 1840s kitchen maid at Rose Hill Mansion in the Finger Lakes region of New York. She served as the Education Curator at the 18th-century Square House Museum in Westchester County, New York, and often cooked on the tavern’s 18th-century hearth. In 2006, she began working in Maryland as the Education Director and Foodways Consultant at the 1801 Riversdale House Museum, and she served as the consultant for the restoration of the 18th-century kitchen at Annapolis’ William Paca House. She has appeared on numerous TV shows on CBS, MPT, and PBS, and is the author of Cooking Maryland’s Way: Voices of a Diverse Cuisine.
