Jai McDowall heads a cast of 12. He won the fifth season of Britain’s Got Talent, capturing the hearts of a nation with his powerhouse vocals, natural charm and versatile song interpretations.
He said Moulin Rouge is his favorurite musical of all time, adding: “I love the music. Sadly I’ve not made it to the real thing yet. I think it’d be amazing to be in Paris in the year 1900. A life with lots of singing and dancing in Paris, what more could you ask for?”
He continued: “Just before covid/ lockdown hit, I was fortunate enough to tour with Susan Boyle around the UK. It was such an incredible experience and something I have wanted to do since being on Britain’s Got Talent, so that was a massive tick off the bucket list.” For tickets visit www. howdenparkcentre.co.uk
