April at Milton Keynes Theatre - from Russell Watson to Russell Brand (and lots more inbetween!)

What do you get when you mix an award-winning comedian, an opera legend, and a couple of YouTube sensations? It’s the programming for April at Milton Keynes Theatre.

Audiences can certainly beat the April showers this year with live music, death defying stunts, and a lot of laughter!


Having sold more than seven million albums worldwide, Russell Watson is firmly established as the UK’s best-selling classical crossover artist of all time.

To date, his illustrious career has included performances for Her Majesty the Queen, the Pope and two US Presidents. Russell returns to the stage with his brand-new show Canzoni d’Amore.


Following a series of sold-out shows, one of comedy’s fiercest talents Russell Brand brings his stand-up show Re:Birth to Milton Keynes. Prepare for Russell to unravel the matrix of modern media, politics, sex, fatherhood and death.


The world’s official No.1 Eagles tribute, The Illegal Eagles, returns for another outstanding show promising more of their trademark musical prowess, acute attention to detail, and incredible showmanship. This phenomenal group of musicians have been touring for over two decades and remain true Eagles fanatics! Their longevity and continued international acclaim are due in no small part to their extraordinary mastery of the Eagles’ distinctive sound.


Starring Cheryl Fergison (EastEnders), Maureen Nolan (The Nolans), Rebecca Wheatley (Casualty) and Hilary O’Neil (ITV’s Copy Cats), Menopause the Musical is coming back to Milton Keynes. This hysterical show packed full of one-liners about night sweats, hot flushes and memory loss is backed by an instantly recognisable soundtrack of innuendo-laden versions of 60s, 70s and 80s pop classics.


Circus of Horrors returns with its latest brand new incarnation, Voodoo. This spectacular features an amazing amalgamation of bizarre and fantastic circus acts all woven into a sensational story with the darkest of magic. Performed with a forked tongue firmly in each cheek, you’ll certainly die laughing.

 


Step back in time with The Glenn Miller Orchestra, as Ray McVay invites you to experience a ‘feel for the forties’. Be transported back to the heady days and music of the 1940s with the fabulous harmonies of the Moonlight Serenaders and the sublime vocals of Catherine Sykes and Mark Porter. Come and hear the music that got us through the war with smiles on our faces and laid the foundations of pop right up to the present day.


Best known for their YouTube and being BBC Radio 1 presenters, Dan and Phil present their new stage show - Interactive Introverts. Two internet dwelling, insecure nerds standing under the spotlight to give the people what they want: an epic interactive experience of rants, roasts, battles, stories and surprises that will make you laugh, cry, cringe and puts the audience in control unlike anything before!
