Liz and Lizz did the fairy biz when they donned wings to flutter all over York city centre.

Liz Peel and Lizz Bennett were promoting Fairy Nights, an entertainment which is their first assignment since they launched ninelives event management.

All proceeds from Fairy Nights at the Events Centre in the Royal York Hotel on Friday September 17 will be donated to Macmillan Cancer Relief.

It promises to be "an enchanting night of musical entertainment, comedy and dancing, loosely based on Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream."

Hosts for the night will be musical comedy duo Tom & Pedey, with event headliners like Dan Atkinson, resident comedian and compere of the Other Side Comedy Club, plus five-piece band, Word Of Mouth.

Other performers include close-up magician Joel Dickinson, DJ Pete Robinson and rock/blues band Cardboard Radio.

Vegetarian cuisine will be provided by El Piano of York.

The feet-on-the-ground chiffon winged duo dished out "fairy flyers" to the passing public, urging anyone who wanted tickets to phone 07714 605456.

After this, they hope that that ninelives event management will really take off - and sprinkle fairy dust on their business fortunes.
