Elaine Paige

Elaine Paige has announced a 23 date series of concerts from October to December 2016, which will see her perform her favourite tracks, from an array of contemporary songwriters.  This follows Elaine’s last solo tour in 2014 which was a sellout celebratory concert encompassing her incredible 50 year career and saw her say “farewell” to a full touring schedule.

Elaine said:

“I’m so excited about this series of ‘weekend’ concerts.  Having made the decision not to do a back to back tour again, this appealed to me not only because of the schedule, but as I’ve marked my 50 years on stage, this is going to allow me to do something completely different. A brand new show celebrating songwriters I love, such as Harry Nilsson, Randy Newman, Jim Webb, Burt Bacharach, Lennon & McCartney, Tim Rice & Andrew Lloyd Webber… the list goes on, as well as many of my hits.

This music has been the soundtrack to all our lives, not just mine. And its the ideal opportunity to perform in an intimate way… I recently played the Royal Albert Hall with the 60 piece BBC Concert Orchestra so I’m doing these new shows ‘stripped back’!”

Elaine has performed live in concert all over the world and as a recording artist has worked with legendary producers such as Tony Visconti, Dennis Lambert, Peter Matz, & Phil Ramone amongst others and has released 22 solo albums (4 multi-Platinum and 9 Gold,) been featured on 7 cast recordings and has had major worldwide hits with songs such as Memory (Cats) and I Know Him So Well (Chess.)
