To celebrate a momentous 25 years in music and theatre, multi-platinum recording artist Michael Ball rounds off 2009 with the launch of his brand new DVD: “Michael Ball Past & Present Live at the Royal Albert Hall.”
An outstanding collection of his best known songs, recorded live during his recent tour, is a must have present for fans who would like to find Michael in their stockings this Christmas...
From his West End debut in Les Miserables in 1985 to his Olivier Award winning performance as Edna Turnblad in Hairspray, his concert DVD is a two hour extravaganza packed with Michael’s favourite songs over the past two and a half decades.
Highlights in this show include Michael’s many West End and Broadway credits, which are almost too numerous to mention (see list below!)
From his 1985 debut as Marius in Les Miserables Michael sings the beautiful Empty Chairs at Empty Tables. Love Changes Everything Michael’s chart topping song from Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Aspects of Love in which he starred in the West End and on Broadway and Michael’s concert favourite, the Rice/Lloyd Webber composition Gethsemane from the 1972 rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar.
Tell Me It’s Not True is from Willy Russell’s enduring musical Blood Brothers and fans’ favourite and fans will love Michael’s spine tingling version of The Winner Takes It All from Mamma Mia.
The concert opens and closes with show stopping hits The Impossible Dream, a great favourite with concert goers and taken from the Broadway production and film Man From La Mancha and from the popular Hairspray - You Can’t Stop The Beat.
