Choirmaster and broadcaster Gareth Malone is back for round two of his smash-hit show, Sing-Along-A-Gareth-Two. Ahead of it coming to the Assembly Hall on Thursday November 9, Lauren Brook discovers more about this feel-good show that’ll lift the voices of Tunbridge Wells…
Known for his achievements as a choirmaster, TV presenter and populariser of choral music, as well as three number-one singles, two BAFTA awards and countless popular television shows over the last 15 years, Gareth Malone is a master of bringing communities together in music and song.
On the back of the huge success of his 2022 tour, Gareth is bringing his unique brand of feel-good musical experimentation to theatres all over the UK in autumn 2023, encouraging audiences to join in and sing along to songs that will uplift and delight people of all ages. Friends, families and even choirs are welcome to bring the house down at this rip-roaring show unlike any other. He arrives at the Assembly Hall here in Tunbridge Wells on November 9…
“Following the barnstorming, whirlwind success of Sing-Along-A-Gareth in 2022, I’m back, new and improved with Sing-Along-A-Gareth-Two,” says the BAFTA award-winning choirmaster.
“Featuring a whole new list of classic tunes for you and your friends to sing your hearts out to, I’ll be up and down the nation warming your larynxes in a feel-good evening of fun that will leave you with a song in your heart.”
In a thrilling live experiment that has never been attempted on stage before, Gareth will be putting Artificial Intelligence to the musical test by composing a song using only his laptop and answers from the audience.
They will then suggest a local landmark, a genre of music and a unique situation to feed into an AI program and (hopefully) create a brand-new track! Hit or not, Gareth and his talented musicians and singers will bring the newly created song to life right there and then on stage – and of course, the audience is encouraged to sing along.
Playing guitar, piano and bass, the multi-talented Gareth Malone will keep everyone entertained throughout the show, performing upbeat, fun tracks that we all know and love. For those wanting to put in some practice before the show, the song list will be available to download in advance.
In Tunbridge Wells for one night only and with a few tickets still available, Gareth and his band will make it a night to remember.
Tickets for Sing-Along-A-Gareth-Two can be purchased on the Assembly Hall website at assemblyhalltheatre.co.uk.
The show will begin at 7.30pm on Thursday November 9, 2023. Ticket prices range from £30.38 for members and £33.75 for non-members.
