Following an amazing concert at Buxton Opera House in June 2025, Britain’s finest song writers and session musicians are happy to bring their ‘Definitive Burt Bacharach’ show back to the lovely Lamproom Theatre in Barnsley.
This is a sophisticated masterclass in melody, honouring not only the fantastic tunes, but also now celebrating the life of the legend that was BURT BACHARACH, writer of one of America’s greatest songbooks for artistes such as Dionne Warwick, Cilla Black, Dusty Springfield, Aretha Franklin, Elvis Presley, Gene Pitney, The Carpenters and so many more.
Atlantic recording artist John Reilly fronts this concert with his spiritual and soulful vocals and with hand-picked world class session players who usually back artists such as Paul Carrack and Take That. Female vocals are elegantly performed by Miss Rachel Raynor and the Musical Director overseeing this dazzling non-stop parade of classic songs is Canadian pianist and composer Lewis Nitikman.
‘Anyone Who Had A Heart’ – ‘Walk On By’ – ‘Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head’ – ‘Close To You’ – ‘24 Hours From Tulsa’ - ‘Do You Know The Way To San Jose?’ – ‘Alfie’ – ‘I Say A Little Prayer’ – ‘That’s what Friends Are For’……………. Hit after glorious hit !!
You may forget exactly which songs were written by Burt Bacharach, join us for a night to remember !!

‘A wonderful collection of songs just as they were meant to be heard’
