Whether your Dad’s a rock’n’roller, barmy for blues or a lover of comedy, let us help you choose something special to show your appreciation this Father’s Day. Here are our top picks.
The nation’s favourite dark manipulator of magic and mind control will tour his latest stage presentation, DERREN BROWN: UNDERGROUND (31 Aug to 2 Sept) . Direct from its recent sold-out London run, it features a collection of some of the very best of his previous stage work brought together into a spell-binding experience of showmanship and magical genius.
For over 50 years, John Mayall (12 Nov) has served as a pioneer of blues music, rightly earning him the title, “The Godfather of British Blues”. Regarded by many as blues’ most influential artist, John’s band The Bluesbreakers, launched the careers of many true legends including Eric Clapton, Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Peter Green and Mick Taylor. 64 albums later and John’s captivating and authentic sound is still as vital today is it ever was.
Milton Jones is Out There (9 Mar). No, really out there and this time he hasn’t just forgotten his keys. He’s holding up the mirror of truth to society, and he can see right through it, which means its probably just a window. In his brand new show he’ll be putting his foot down and lifting the lid on the pedal bin of lies of the media (which doesn’t include this press release obviously).
Often acclaimed as the World’s Official No.1 Eagles tribute, The Illegal Eagles (2 Jul) return to the stage in 2017, this time celebrating their own incredible 20 years of UK & international touring! Praised for their ability to recreate the authentic and distinctive sound of The Eagles with confidence, flair and precision – skills which have won them global recognition.
Is Dad a Rock’n’Roll fan? Watch him erupt with excitement when he hears original ‘dreamboats’ Marty Wilde, Eden Kane, Mike Berry and The Wildcats, as well as very special guest Mark Wynter, are joining forces in the Solid Gold Rock ‘N’ Roll Show (1 Nov).
“The best gift you can give this Father’s Day is a live experience he will never forget.”
Steve Steinman, the creative force behind the hugely successful Vampires Rock (9 Feb 2018), returns with this epic musical concert The Meatloaf Story (7 Oct). Check out our Link Ticket Offer: Book for The Meatloaf Story and Vampires Rock and Save £5 per Band A ticket!
Simon and Garfunkel Story (24 Sept) comes direct from its success in London’s West End, a sold-out UK tour and standing ovations at every performance. Using huge projection photos and original film footage, this 50th Anniversary Celebration also features a full live band performing all the hits including Mrs Robinson, Cecilia, Bridge Over Troubled Water, Homeward Bound and many more.
A Father’s Day favorite… It’s been a busy few years for Jason Manford (27 & 28 Jan) since his last smash-hit stand up show but fans of his Absolute Radio show will know this nationally acclaimed comedian hasn’t changed a bit. ‘Muddle Class’ promises to feature a wealth of new material about Jason growing up ‘working class’ then finding, over the years, that part of him has become ‘middle class’. Delivered with Jason’s amiable charm and captivating wit, this is a show not to be missed.
Purple Rain (22 Sept) is a world class live celebration of the music, life and legacy of the iconic legend that was Prince. Hailed by original Prince and the Revolution drummer Bobby Z as “authentic and on the money”, do not miss your chance to see Purple Rain live.
T-Rextasy (21 Sept) celebrates the story of Marc Bolan with his band T.Rex and was one of the most flamboyant and charismatic stars of the original glam rock era. T-Rextasy is the legacy Marc Bolan deserved!
