“Absolute Bowie” – playing the Town Hall Theatre on Friday, 9 October – takes the audience through the legendary David Bowie’s “Greatest Hits” with their huge stage show.
The show, now in its 20th year of touring, features many mid-set costume ch-ch-changes and was hailed as “A lovingly crafted Bowie show” by NME and “An unmissable tribute act” by the Mail on Sunday.
A spokesperson for the show said: “David Bowie’s evolving image has mesmerised fans since the early 70’s and, for the first time ever, Absolute Bowie will take audiences on a trip that presents all his best-loved personas in all their glory. Performed by a world-class five-piece band, this unique concert features two long sets and more costume changes than any other show. A true extravaganza of the wonder that is Bowie’s work.”
They added: “The band has listened to fans and evolved the show’s setlist to really give an all-killer performance and no Bowie fan is left out. All of the Starman’s greatest hits are performed plus the band perform tracks from the albums David Bowie, Ziggy Stardust & The Spiders From Mars, Heroes, Aladdin Sane, Hunky Dory, Let’s Dance and Young Americans through to the hits of later albums.
The show features the vocals of John O’Neill as Bowie, with Andy Marr as Mick Ronson on guitar.
The show lasts from 8pm to 10.15pm, including interval, and tickets, costing £22.50, are available from the Box Office, Hartlepool Art Gallery, opening times, Tuesday-Saturday, 10am-4pm, and telephone number 01429890000.
