The ultimate celebration of the genius of Stevie Wonder! Voted one of Britain’s top soul singers, mesmeric vocalist Noel McCalla, award-winning saxophonist Derek Nash (Jools Holland’s R&B Orchestra) and their world-class live band present a diverse catalogue of Stevie Wonder classics, taken from 1970s Signed, Sealed, Delivered through to Talking Book, Innervisions, Songs in the Key of Life, and Hotter than July. Playing hit after hit, from the dance floor classics I Wish and Superstition to the beautiful arrangements of My Cherie Amour and Overjoyed. The show will also feature compositions by Stevie that others artists have had massive hits with. The Wonder of Stevie’s outstanding 9-piece band features musicians who have previously performed with a wide variety of music legends including Bill Withers, Amy Winehouse, The Bee Gees, Eric Clapton, David Gilmour, Martha Reeves, Jamiroquai, Booker T. Jones, Sam Moore, Jethro Tull, Eddie Floyd, Gregory Porter and Alfie Boe.

Strictly Come Dancing legends Brendan Cole, James Jordan, Pasha Kovalev, Vincent Simone and Ian Waite are to perform in a spectacular new show called Legends of The Dance Floor. As legends of the Strictly dance floor, Brendan, James, Pasha, Vincent and Ian have all headlined their own solo tours, but never before have they all performed together as professionals on one stage – until now! In what promises to be a nostalgic celebration of Latin, ballroom, tango, rumba and so much more, the dance stars will be joined by an incredible supporting cast as they take us on a journey through their illustrious careers and Strictly highlights while reminiscing on how they became your Legends of The Dance Floor. Amongst their countless Strictly highlights, Vincent mesmerised us with his tango moves, Pasha appeared in three finals (winning one), Ian dazzled with his Pasa Doble, James’s ballroom skills and larger-than-life personality made him a Saturday night favourite and Brendan, of course, never shied away from telling the judges what he really thought while remaining one of the most popular pros. It is a ballroom reunion not to be missed.

Gareth Gates, along with a stellar cast of West End performers, pay tribute to those four boys from Jersey with their unmistakable high pitched vocals and promises to be an electrifying homage to the iconic sounds of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. With over two decades of dominance on the airwaves and a staggering 100 million records sold, the Four Seasons have etched themselves into music history. With songs like; Can’t Take My Eyes Off You, Big Girls Don’t Cry, Sherry, My Eyes Adored You, December 63, and many more, get ready for an evening of roof raising vocals, slick choreography and a nostalgic journey back in time to the golden era of pop music! Backed by a talented live band, you are sure to leave the theatre echoing the sentiment of one of the Four Seasons’ most famous hits: “Oh, What a Night!”
