There are still many shows and performances coming up this autumn and winter to delight audiences in Dorchester.

Dorchester Arts has a great line-up of live shows during October, November and December.

Jenny Eclair: Sixty! on November 5 and New Hardy Players' The Mayor of Casterbridge on December 14 and 15 at the Corn Exchange have both sold out, but jazz artist Byron Wallen's Four Corners has been cancelled.

A spokesman for Dorchester Arts said: "Dorchester Arts regrets that the appearance to Byron Wallen's Four Corners at Dorset Museum on October 15 has had to be cancelled.

"Conditions for touring artists remain difficult for a number of reasons and the tour, which was planned some time ago, is now no longer possible.

"We very much hope to welcome Byron back when conditions improve but as a rescheduled date could not be worked out at the moment, we will be refunding all tickets."

Here's what other shows are going ahead:
