Thanks for posting that H, Quite a few years ago I went to the Liverpool Empire with my sister to see WY and thought then I would love Gareth to do gig in a theatre like this and how he is. I wonder if Gareth will give us a little taste of the new music he is writing, like he did at Maidstone I hope so Can't wait!!

I wrote to the Embassy theatre to try and advertise the gig by way of my blog, and this is the result. I hope it helps to sell tickets. love carol xxx Hi Carol - many thanks for your encouraging email regarding Gareth Gates performance here - as you probably realise it does cost a lot to bring these fabulous acts to Skegness so any help at all and local support we can get to help sell them out (and encourage them to return) is gratefully received. Any social networking you are able to do would help get the word out (I attach a few official good quality images for you to use) and if you have any places that you think may take some flyers for this show then please pop in and collect some from me! I'll make sure I link from The Theatre FB page to your blog too - it's a great article! Keep up the good work and thanks in advance. Polly. Pollyanne.

Here is a really nice interview about this gig, looks like you ladies are in for a fantastic evening ;D. I know that carol is not online this week , thank you June for telling me that, but I would like to wish our lovely ladies Ann , June and carol, and anyone else who may be going, a fantastic evening, and don't forget to come back with your reports and pics with Gareth and share them with us all. love H xx Published on Saturday 11 August 2012 07:00 POPSTAR Gareth Gates certainly isn’t one to hide from a challenge, writes Andrew Hirst. Capturing the nation’s heart as a Pop Idol runner up before developing a successful career in musical theatre are not achievements you would normally expect from someone who grew up with a terrible stammer, unable to express themselves. Having succeeded where few others would h ave attempted, he has now set himself even more challenges - this time of a culinary nature as he prepares to become a contestant in the latest series of Celebrity Masterchef. But when he performs for audiences at Skegness’s Embassy Theatre this Sunday he’ll be returning to his first and foremost love. “Music has always been very important to me; I grew up with a terrible stammer, never being able to express myself through speech, so I would use music as my form of expression,” he told the Standard. “I would sit at my piano or pick up a guitar and sing what was inside me, so it’s always been very important and it still is today. “For the past few years I’ve been involved with musical theatre; I’m currently in a show called Legally Blonde and I’m loving that side of performing. “But my pop career is still what I’m much more well known for and this show will be a mix of the two - we’ll be thrashing out some well known tunes and I’m sure everyone will be able to sing along.” Gareth has also been working on new material with the band he will be playing with and has hinted there may be one or two new songs during the show. “There might be a small departure from what I used to do, simply because it won’t all be about me - the band will be involved just as much,” he said. “In terms of musical styles, I’m a big fan of the 80s and my band all like that era too, so that’s been a big influence.” Although he’s come a long way in the decade that has followed his Pop Idol days, Gareth still looks back fondly upon his time on the show and the opportunities it brought. “All artists who come from those kind of shows eventually want to have their own stance on things but I’ve learnt to embrace where I’ve come from and never be ashamed of the success that it’s brought. “I’m still hoping to build on that success and it’s still all about great songs.” Gareth and his band will perform in the Embassy Theatre this Sunday, August 12 from 7.30pm. Tickets cost £19.50 for adults and £12.50 for children. For more information, or to buy tickets, call the box office on 0845 674 0505. Alternatively, you can pop online and visit www.embassytheatre.co.uk.
