Bridlington Spa is delighted to announce the return of entertainment.
Comeback Cabaret is five eclectic evenings of socially distanced entertainment presented in the historic Royal Hall at Bridlington Spa, starting Saturday 1 August and every Saturday in August.
The singer will introduce themselves to the audience before moving to the Theatre; where they will sing to an empty auditorium, with their show being live streamed into the Royal Hall. The audience will be seated at tables and watch the show on a large screen in the centre of the Royal Hall stage and served a two course meal during the interval.
Asa Elliott will launch the first Comeback Cabaret evening on Saturday 1 August. Asa is best known as the charming crooner in the hit TV series ‘Benidorm’. He recently reprised his role for the smash-hit UK and Ireland theatre tour of ‘Benidorm Live’.
Asa’s first TV break was on ‘Stars In Their Eyes’ (appearing as Bobby Vee), leading to a blossoming singing and acting career in the UK and America. Twice appearing in pantomime at Bridlington Spa in 2016 & 2017, and a sell-out ’Swing Your Heart Out’ show in 2018, Asa is a familiar face to regulars at the venue. A natural showman, described by Frankie Valli as ‘effortless’, his powerful vocals and charismatic stage presence guarantee a show you will not forget.
Bridlington Spa general manager Mark Lonsdale said “It has been hugely important to us as a venue to reintroduce entertainment as quickly as possible in a safe way for both our staff and audiences.
“Our twice weekly free cinema Picturehouse screenings have proved hugely popular and we are now thrilled to move to the next stage in our phased reopening with the Comeback Cabaret evenings. These evenings provide a fantastic platform for artists to showcase their work in what has been a really difficult time for the industry as a whole. We are the only venue of our kind for miles that will have any form of entertainment this summer.”
Other performers throughout August include Lisa Kelsey performing cabaret & show tunes, soloist Zara performing classic hits, and Ricky K who will be performing cabaret & a Robbie Williams tribute in the same evening with one more act to be announced shortly.
