Collabro 14 Mar

Thu 7.30pm TICKETS £19.50 - £131 *As part of our very special journey, we’d love fans to join us on the final night of the tour, at the prestigious Royal Albert Hall! So, anyone who purchases a VIP Diamond or Gold ticket at any date on the tour will be entered into a draw. One lucky winner will win a VIP Box at the Royal Albert Hall for them and 4 friends, plus the chance to come backstage for a private meet and greet with Collabro before the show!

Collabro are the world’s most successful Musical Theatre group. In 2014 they met for their first rehearsal above a pub in London and just a month later went on to rouse the whole of Hammersmith Apollo into a standing ovation during their first ever public performance of ‘Stars’ for the Britain’s Got Talent judges. Having triumphed in their Semi-Final heat with over 63% of the votes, they then won the overall competition with one of the biggest majorities ever. This subsequently led to them joining Simon Cowell’s label Syco, and hence becoming label-mates with the likes of One Direction, Little Mix, Susan Boyle and Il Divo. With special guest Kerry Ellis ‘West End, Broadway & Recording Star’.

Jon Brittain Directed by

Donnacadh O’Briain

Fri 7.30pm

TICKETS £24.50

‘Are you ready for some filth? I know I am. It’s been a while since I sallied forth to pleasure the provinces with my particular brand of saucy innuendo. Let me at them!’ In this outrageously camp new show, (that he was going to call Bed Knobs and Knee Pads but was advised might not sell too well in Harrogate), renowned homosexual Julian Clary will bare his soul as never before in the interests of light entertainment. He’ll murder some well known songs along the way, no doubt, read you a sneak preview from his next memoir A Night At the Lubricant and make withering remarks about punters foolish enough to sit in the front row. You know the kind of thing. It’s the only life he knows. Don’t miss out.

Seven Drunken Nights - The Story of The Dubliners

This might well be the final mince…

This celebration of Ireland’s favorite sons brings to life the music of The Dubliners.

The Bohemians: Queen Tribute

Cider with Rosy

A Comprehensive re-enactment of Queens Greatest Hits

Laurie Lee was a distinguished poet and a playwright but today he is best remembered for his moving and unsentimental autobiographical book about his childhood, Cider With Rosie.

Internationally renowned Queen Tribute band The Bohemians take you on a high energy roller coaster ride of a concert, featuring the back catalogue of one of the world’s most popular and iconic rock acts of all time. So many fabulous hits to be covered but they’re all here, from the early piano and harmony heavy masterpieces , to the later, catchy pop of the eighties and Rock anthems of the early nineties.

Laurie Lee was born in a small Cotswold village in 1914. He grew up in a time of change when the rural traditions of past centuries were being swept aside in the path of twentieth century progress. Cider With Rosie is a poetic evocation of that time and is now regarded as a modern classic and a popular one too thanks to it’s frequent use as a set book in schools.

Whether it’s Killer Queen, Crazy Little Thing Called Love or The Show Must Go On, Bohemian Rhapsody or Will Rock You/We Are the Champions, The Bohemians will have you on your feet, singing, dancing and clapping along in a truly memorable live re-enactment of the world’s greatest Rock Band.

This imaginative stage adaptation by James Roose-Evans is true to the events of Lee’s early days. and the spirit of the book comes to life in this play full of laughter, pathos and music.

Jimmy Tarbuck Having successful spent more than 50 years in the notoriously fickle world of show business, Jimmy Tarbuck has hosted numerous television shows, variety shows, chat shows and games shows and his cheeky grin and boy-next-door charms have won him fans far away from his native Liverpool.

The World Famous Elvis Show

However, Tarby is at his best in front of a live audience . In his show he will be sharing anecdotes, demonstrating his quickfire wit and thoroughly entertaining the audience in a show which promises comedy for grown-ups rather than adult comedy.

A magnificent 2 hour theatre production, recreating 2 popular Elvis Presley concerts.

During the evening, Tarby will be using photos and video footage to take audiences on a nostalgic Trip down memory lane with a wealth of hugely funny stories and anecdotes ranging from being at school and in the same class as John Lennon to playing golf with Bing Crosby.

Jonathan Rockefeller Based on the books by

David McKee

Elmer The Patchwork Elephant Show features a menagerie of 21 loveable puppets, tells the tale of an elephant that stands out – both with his patchwork-coloured skin and his sense of humour – but ultimately realizing that his friends have always valued his unique characteristics. The show’s subtle message that it is always best to be yourself, combined with the vibrant colour and cheeky humour of the main character, makes Elmer a great show for children of all ages.
