Adelphi Has To Fly includes the star’s own compositions, such as Alice in the Bacon Box which is based on the 20th century story of a Long Eaton hermit, Alice Grace, who lived in a box previously used to store meat after being evicted from her cottage.

The concert will also include a handful of numbers from the singer’s stellar back catalogue.

Multi-instrumentalist Stephen McLachlan, long-term collaborator and producer of Lucy’s latest musical creations, will join her on stage.

Tickets cost £14 for the concert which starts at 8pm. To book, go to www.derbymarketplace.co.uk
