Fairfield Halls in record breaking week

7:00am Saturday 2nd February 2013 in Local news

It is a record breaking week for Fairfield Halls this week with the venue a complete sell out for their upcoming show.

The highest ever sales for a single week in the venue’s Ashcroft Theatre has been reached with Willy Russell’s smash hit musical Blood Brothers.

Sales have already passed a record level and there are only a handful of tickets left for some performances.

The multi award-winning West End musical stars Brit Award and Ivor Novello winning singer-songwriter Marti Pellow as the Narrator and Maureen Nolan as Mrs Johnstone.

The show is set to play for 8 packed performances at the Ashcroft Theatre next week.

Fairfield CEO, Simon Thomsett said: “This is such a great result for our hard working team here and comes on the back of a terrific Christmas season where sales for our pantomime, Jack and the Beanstalk were over 10% up on the previous year.

“It may still be winter out there but we’re making sure Croydon has great entertainment to warm it up”.

Other predicted big sellers include Bellowhead, Micky Flanagan, Anton and Erin, Jools Holland and Bill Kenwright’s production of Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
