This beautifully constructed narrative show tells the story of how the ‘Fab Four’ from Liverpool changed the musical world forever. Including live covers of some of the Beatles greatest hits, this cleverly constructed solo show provides the story of how ‘The Beatles’ really did conquer the world of music. With a total of 64 ‘Hot 100’ hits between 1964 and 1970, it’s not a question of which songs our performer is going to include in the show, it’s which songs they’re going to dare to leave out!
This heartwarming tribute to Karen Carpenter provides the audience with a fabulous insight into her life, and music of one of the most successful musical duos of all time. The easy listening music of the Carpenters made the 1970’s a ‘sing a-long’ decade for millions of fans across the world. With hits including ‘Close to You’, ‘Mr Postman’, and ‘Top of the World, the show’s setlist will take you on a journey celebrating some the duo’s biggest hits from sales of almost 40 million records!
This colourful solo show makes the music of ‘Swedish Icons’ ABBA affordable and practical for Care and Nursing Homes of all sizes. Without losing that special sense of 1970’s magic, ‘ABBA Gold’ brings together some of the super groups biggest hits. With ‘Mamma Mia’, ‘Take a Chance on Me’, and ‘Dancing Queen’, not to mention the song that started it all ‘Waterloo’, it’s not surprising that this is one of our most popular shows. With stunning vocals, fabulous costumes, and that 1970’s disco magic, this really is the ultimate feel-good show for all generations!
Have your very own ‘Cocktail Hour’ and jazz up a dreary afternoon this Autumn with a show full of heartwarming warming jazz classics. With a little imagination you can transport your residents to a magical moment at a New York Jazz Club in the ‘fall’. With music made famous by jazz icons such as ‘Ella Fitzgerald’ ‘Louis Armstrong’ and ‘Etta James’ the audience can unwind with smooth vocals, elegant melodies, and just the right amount of sparkle. You provide the venue and the optional martinis and we’ll provide a show to remember!

This glitzy song and dance showcase features many of the styles and genres seen on the show, and even features a special ‘Tap Box’ section, not to mention the foxtrot, jive, tango and even a touch of ‘line dancing’. Whether your audience sits back and enjoys the show from the comfort of their chairs, or takes to the floor to dance along with our performer, its sure to be more than a ‘SEVEN’ from everyone there!

Featuring memorable hits such as ‘Secret Love’, ‘Deadwood Stage’ and of course the unforgettable ‘Que Sera Sera’, its easy to see why this ‘The Girl Next Door’ has become one of the most iconic shows in the Mini Concerts diary.
It may be one of our longest running touring shows, but its never been so popular as it is now!
