Gareth Valentine Presents - Tales of a Musical Director

Details

Renowned musical director, conductor and raconteur Gareth Valentine returns to Cray Coqs after two sold out performances in 2022 of his one man show Tales of a Musical Director. Reliably entertaining and always outrageous, join Gareth for an evening of music, reflections and hilarious anecdotes from his humble Welsh beginnings to his 40 year career in theatre and showbusiness. From Kander and Ebb to Stephen Sondheim, Roger Moore to Ian McKellen, Chita Rivera to Judi Dench, Trevor Nunn, Hal Prince, Gillian Lynne, Stephen Schwartz to the incomparable Miriam Margolyes, he has collaborated with everyone! Described as ‘Mr Music‘ by Victoria Wood, Gareth seamlessly weaves through some of his personal and often hysterical reflections at the piano, including some uproariously self-penned compositions especially composed for the evening, with special guests to be announced along with a special contribution from Broadway legend Chita Rivera. This presentation written and devised exclusively for Crazy Coqs by Gareth Valentine and Conor Sheridan.
