Musical theatre group set for Perth Concert Hall

-

The popular quartet said they were keen to play smaller venues on this tour, as previously fans complained they couldn’t get to see them on stage.

Michael said: “It is 52 dates all around the UK, ending at the Royal Albert Hall before we head off to Ireland for another few dates. It’s our biggest tour yet.

“What we wanted to do with this tour is go further to the nooks and crannies of the country, as Tom would say, and make sure we got to as many home towns as possible rather than just doing the major cities.”

Matthew added: “There’s quite a few [places] we haven’t done before. Small venues really work for us.

“What we do - musical theatre - is tell a story through song. The fact that we can see the whole audience, and see their faces and reactions, is really special.

“It’s amazing to do the big venues but just as special to do the smaller.” Tom added: “We listened to our fans. “We listened to feedback from our previous tours and lots of people said ‘I love you guys, but I couldn’t travel far enough to be able to see you’, or ‘you didn’t come quite close enough to me’.

“With this whole tour we wanted it to be a journey around. We wanted to go further afield so we could get to all our fans and get to meet new people that we hadn’t seen before.”

Collabro’s performanc­e will take place from 7.30pm at the concert hall on Thursday, February 28.

Tickets cost £45.50, £35.50 and £22.20, however a diamond VIP pass can be bought for £132 and a gold VIP pass costs £102, from the Horsecross box office on 01738 621031.
