If the run-up to Christmas is making you see red, the Ulster Orchestra may be able to help. Its Best of Broadway concert on Saturday 18 December in the Belfast Waterfront offers the perfect antidote to Christmas shopping, wrapping and rushing around.
Last year’s Broadway show was a sell-out success. This new selection from some of the finest music from the world’s favourite musicals builds on that success. The concert features songs and orchestral music from award-winning Broadway shows such as Love Never Dies, Phantom of the Opera, Oliver!, Wicked, Aspects of Love, West Side Story, The King and I and more.
Conductor Gareth Hudson is no stranger to seeing his name up in lights – he has worked with many Broadway and West End stars including Andrew Lloyd Webber and Jason Donovan. He brings with him a trio of singers, all with West End credits to their names: Annalene Beechey; Grainne Renihan and Scott Davies.
So if you want to banish the winter blues and escape the Christmas rush, why not book the hottest tickets in town and celebrate all things Broadway with the Ulster Orchestra and guests? Top hats and tails are optional!
