- **Event Name**: When Judas Met John: Songs of Dylan and Lennon
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 09 May, 2026 at 07:30 pm – Sat, 09 May, 2026 at 09:00 pm (+01:00)
- **Event Description**: Listed by Counter Culture as one of "five shows not to be missed at this year's Edinburgh Fringe," we are thrilled to confirm this popular and excellently reviewed show will be playing at the Shaftesbury Arts Centre on 9th May 2026. 

Written and presented by Irish duo Brothers Broke, the brothers strip bare a carefully selected repertoire of Dylan and Lennon songs, and present them raw and unplugged around a story of the influence, jealousy, parody and respect that each artist had for the other.

This engaging show compares the like-minded and socially conscious lyrics of Dylan and Lennon and deals with the relevance of their political messaging, written up to sixty years ago, in today’s world. It also addresses key questions regarding their relationship – why was Lennon in awe of Dylan only to deride him years later? And why did Dylan keep it to himself that he "Really dug the Beatles"?

The show has been described as “a must-see for anyone who appreciates the power of music to evoke emotions, inspire reflection, and shed light on the socio-political landscape”.
Whether you’re looking for a raw and energetic acoustic performance of some great Dylan and Lennon songs or wish to appreciate a unique in-person performance of a thought-provoking concept, this show is for you.

The show is a proud holder of the coveted “Sell-out Show” Laurel awarded by Edinburgh Fringe.
