LORNA MARSH

He was one of the original stadium rockers, but now Rick Wakeman is to play The Waterfront in Norwich.

His gig at the 700-capacity venue is the only confirmed chance to see him perform live this year. And the one-off performance on Wednesday, May 16 is being considered a coup by the King Street venue.

“Keyboard wizard” Rick soared to success in the late- 1960s, and his supergroup Yes became the epitome of stadium and prog rock.

Now 57, he will perform hits from his catalogue of work alongside his English Rock Ensemble for the first time in three years.
