A host of talented East Anglian performers are set to take to the stage in an event celebrating musicials at Norwich Theatre Royal later this month.

An array of acts will be joining The Joe Ringer Band for the show on July 30.

Mr Ringer said: 'We will be paying tribute to the biggest and best musicals from the 1950s to today. There will be a 15-piece band with full rhythm and horn sections as well as six amazing vocalists.'

The show will include Rodgers and Hammerstein numbers, extracts from the hit show Top Hat, and some of the songs associated with the era of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. From there the show will move on to pay tribute to musicals like Les Misérables and newer productions including Beautiful, Wicked, and Jersey Boys.

The Joe Ringer Band is at the Theatre Royal on July 30 at 7.30pm. Tickets £7-£19 - visit www.theatreroyalnorwich.co.uk or call 01603 630000
