Britain's Got Talent stars to take to stage at Tamworth Assembly Rooms

The Assembly Rooms team have been working hard to make the venue Covid safe including the installation of plastic screens to separate open areas, a mobile app for ordering drinks at the bar so you don’t have to queue and reduced capacity of 75 per cent for the first run of shows, to ensure a safe introduction back to theatre performances.

Britain’s Got Talent finalists the D-Day Darlings and the D-Day Juniors will star in the first show reopening on June 27.

They will be joined by the 2019 Britain’s Got Talent winner, Thackery, for an evening of song, including classics from the World War eras and original songs from The D-Day Juniors.

Tickets for the show are now on sale, along with many more performances including legendary Status Quo lead singer Francis Rossi, for an intimate evening of chat and music on July 2.

The Best of Take That tribute will take place on July 8, Soul and Motown classic tunes will be on July 27 with Soul Train and West End stars from Les Miserables, The Barricade Boys, join the stage on August 5.

World class tribute act ‘MJ The Legacy’, will be performing on August 13, followed by the incredible ‘Boogie Williams’ and his smoking hot piano performing the hits of rock and roll legend ‘Jerry Lee Lewis’, with special guests including Richard Day as Johnny Cash.

To complete the August summer line-up, Ariana Grande and JoJo Siwa tribute will showcase an afternoon performance on August 28, followed by T.Rextasy who will rock the night away with their flamboyant and glam rock tribute.
