Dancing on Ice star Gareth Gates to sing the hits at Redditch Palace
Theatre - 2015

FORMER Pop Idol and Dancing on Ice star Gareth Gates will be coming to Redditch.
The singer, who made it to the most memorable of the Pop Idol finals in 2001, will be
starring in the critically acclaimed Mad About The Musicals, at the Palace Theatre.
After becoming a household name in the show he went on to sell more than five million
records worldwide and have hits across the globe.
His version of Unchained Melody sold more than a million copies in the UK and is the third
best-selling single of the noughties.
More recently Gareth has had a successful career in musical theatre and has appeared in Les
Miserables, Legally Blonde and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
In 2014 he picked up his skates again to appear in the last ever TV series of Dancing on Ice.
This finale bought back show winners and viewer favourites to compete for one last time.
And next week, alongside Michael Courtney, he will be coming to town performing songs
from from the pen of Rodgers and Hammerstein, Kander and Ebb, Andrew Lloyd Webber,
and Boublil and Schonberg.
The show takes the audience on a whistle stop tour from the heart of London’s theatre land
to the glitz of Broadway.
It also includes incredible dancing, stunning costumes and West End musicians.
Described as a show not to miss, Mad About The Musicals the 10th Anniversary, is at the
Palace Theatre on October 1.
Tickets cost £24.75 (£23.75 discount) inclusive of booking fee 75p per ticket up to a
maximum of £3.
