From Gold to Rio
A tribute to Spandau Ballet and Duran Duran
Saturday 30 May
Two of the UK's most iconic bands will be brought to life in one power-packed show!
With over 20 top 10 hits, the show will feature 2 hours of non-stop classics including Gold, Rio, True, The Reflex, to name just a few - guaranteed to leave everyone wanting more!
So, if you’re a Duranie, a Spandie, a Wild Boy or a Soul Boy, then this is something you really shouldn't miss!
Performed by musicians with over 30 years' professional experience, this show features excellent vocals, tight harmonies, a powerhouse rhythm section and an infectious sense of fun.
