To close the concert series, you’re treated to an afternoon of your favourite West-End musical hits performed by international soloists Georgi Mottram and Ben Forster, accompanied by a talented twelve-piece band led by Luke Brown.

You can expect music from all the great shows like Les MiserablesPhantom of the Opera, West Side Story and Wicked to name just a few.

Georgi Mottram is a West End and international soloist. She has mostly recently performed as a billed artist for Last Night of the Proms alongside Katherine Jenkins, and for West End Proms alongside John Owen Jones. She was Nimue in Camelot at the London Palladium, achieved No.1 in the classical charts, and is a Classical Brit Award nominee. Georgi is the director (and sings in) a West End crossover quartet: Ida. They have performed for royalty at Windsor Castle, at West End Live, and internationally. Georgi most recently performed to 30 million people on Chinese television in their famous New Year show!

West End star Benjamin Edward Forster has most recently been seen at the Royal Albert Hall performing in the Royal Variety performance. He shot to stardom winning ITV’s Superstar competition in 2012. As a result, Forster played the lead role of Jesus in the revival of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar in its 2012 arena tour. Forster would later star in title role in Lloyd Webber’s musical The Phantom of the Opera in the West End. After finishing the 2012 arena tour of Jesus Christ Superstar, Forster went on to play the role of Brad Majors in the 40th anniversary tour of The Rocky Horror Show. In 2013-14, Forster performed the role of Magaldi in the West End production of Evita at the Dominion Theatre. In October 2015, Forster reprised the role of Buddy in Elf: The Musical at the Dominion Theatre.
