Gary Barlow announces Salford tour dates for one man show after Runcorn hit

After wowing fans and critics with his new one man theatre show A Different Stage in a series of intimate shows in Runcorn, Take That star Gary Barlow has announced a new run of dates across the UK.

Pop star Gary unveiled his new theatre project with a series of six shows to just 420 fans a night at The Brindley Theatre in Runcorn, just a stone's throw from where he grew up in Frodsham in Cheshire.

It sees Gary narrate the story of his life, alongside musical highlights of his impressive back catalogue, in a deeply personal two-hour show.

The show also sees Gary's hilarious recollections of how Take That were first formed in Manchester, and how the five lads went on to pop superstardom, before the pain of their split and the joy of their comeback.

Now, Gary has announced it will head out for a string of new tour dates - and Salford fans will get chance to see it next at The Lowry Theatre at Salford Quays later this month, from 22-27 February.

It will then continue on to Liverpool from 15-19 March, and then on to Edinburgh from 22-27 March.

Tickets for all the newly-announced dates will go on sale on Wednesday, February 16 at 10am.

Fans will no doubt be clamouring to get their hands on tickets, after the Runcorn shows sold out within minutes of going sale earlier this year.

Gary announced the news on Twitter on Monday afternoon, telling fans it is hoped the show will go to further theatres across the country soon.

He said: "Don’t be concerned if the shows announced today are not in your area. This is a theatre show. It will gain pace organically.

"More dates will be added. But we’re still learning about the show and more importantly you the audience."

When are the new tour dates?

Lowry Quays Theatre, Salford - 22nd - 27th February

Liverpool Playhouse, Liverpool - 15th - 19th March

Royal Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh - 22nd - 27th March

Tickets are on sale Wednesday 16th February at 10am from A Different Stage official website here
