    STARRING

    JODIE PRENGER

  • There are plenty of exciting shows coming your way for the summer season here at the Palace. We continue to search out the best productions to provide you with the high class and variety of entertainment you have come to expect.

    Stunning musicals coming your way include Andrew Lloyd Webbers West End Hit TELL ME ON A SUNDAY starring Jodie Prenger in June and MENOPAUSE THE MUSICAL starring Linda Nolan, Cheryl Fergison (EastEnders) and Rebecca Wheatley (Casualty) in May . The Harlequins bring another Andrew Lloyd Webber classic to life when they perform THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA at the beginning of June.

    Some old favourites return including Pasha Kovalev from Strictly Come Dancing in ITS ALL ABOUT YOU, Sally Morgan in CALL ME PSYCHIC and Gyles Brandreth in WORD POWER. We then bring you a touch of the Emerald Isle when THE FUREYS, legends of Irish music and song, are set to stir many emotions with their haunting melodies and the big band sound of THE GLENN MILLER ORCHESTRA will reverberate around the auditorium in May.

    If its tributes youre looking for then dont miss the best ABBA one around when VOULEZ-VOUS call in on their 25th Anniversary Tour. Taking on the mantle of Freddie Mercury in SUPREME QUEEN is Scott Maley in July. Elvis is brought to life by Mario Kombou (from the West End production of Jail House Rock) in THE ELVIS YEARS and SIMPLY MORE RED endorsed by the band as being as close to the real Simply Red as it gets, visit in June. BIG GIRLS DONT CRY returns to celebrate the music of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.

    We have an evening of great stand-up from comedy legend RUSSELL KANE in May as he stops off on his Right Man, Wrong Age tour.

    Children will be delighted to see Peppa Pig, George and their friends in PEPPA PIGS SURPRISE, a colourful new show the perfect theatre visit for all pre-schoolers and their families. For older children the Palace Youth Theatre present HIS DARK MATERIALS which is probably better known as the movie THE GOLDEN COMPASS in the summer.
