Presented by Yellow Brick Tours
Be transported by Elton John’s greatest hits showcased in their natural beauty, featuring renowned Elton specialist Sam Wilson.
In this brand new production, Sam brings the Rocket Man’s astonishing compositions to life in an intimate evening lit by candles. Expect magnificent handmade costumes, fascinating stories that delve behind the stage curtain, and world-class musicianship. However, the timeless songs we all know and love take centre stage. Sing along to classics from across the years, such as ‘Your Song’, ‘Bennie And The Jets’, and ‘Candle In The Wind’. You may even discover your new favourite Elton song!
The idea for this captivating concert has been inspired by some of Elton’s rarer solo gigs, such as Edinburgh Playhouse – 1976, as well as Sam’s appearance on ITV’s This Morning, where he played the transcendent ‘Tiny Dancer’ live.
Sam has been performing Elton’s songs in hundreds of theatres, festivals, and venues for 7 years, and first started incorporating covers of his tunes in his college band! You may have heard his voice on America’s Got Talent, and he has had over 10 million streams on Spotify.
