On 29th January 2027, Marquee Square Heroes bring the music of Fish-era Marillion to The Rūze in Chippenham for the first time.

There is a little piece of Marillion history attached to the town, too. Back in 1984, while the band were beginning to make their mark on the UK live circuit, Marillion played at Goldiggers in Chippenham. More than four decades later, Marquee Square Heroes return to the town to celebrate the music of that remarkable era.

This was Marillion at their most dramatic and distinctive, creating music that could move from delicate, atmospheric passages to huge, emotionally charged climaxes, all underpinned by some of the finest musicianship of the era. Marquee Square Heroes immerse themselves in that world, performing songs from the albums that established Marillion as one of progressive rock’s most compelling bands.

Expect the intensity of *Script for a Jester’s Tear* and *Fugazi*, the epic sweep of *Misplaced Childhood* and the darker, more expansive territory of *Clutching at Straws*. These are songs built around atmosphere, narrative and musical detail, and they deserve to be heard played with the same sense of scale and conviction.

For anyone who remembers those albums first time around, or has discovered their remarkable depth years later, this is a chance to hear the Fish-era Marillion catalogue brought to life on stage.
