Gareth’s pledge to his fans

Gareth Gates.

GARETH Gates — star of the original Pop Idol — is appearing at Shanklin Theatre next Friday, November 18.

This one-off performance will feature his best-known chart hits as well as his more recent work, showcasing a wide variety of music.

After the show, Gareth will meet and greet his fans and has promised the organisers he will stay until every request for a photograph has been met.

As the concert is the same night as Children in Need, the organisers are also planning a tie-in with the charity appeal.

Island band Cornerstone will start the evening at 8pm with a short warm-up set. Ticket sales are going well so it is important to pre-book to get good seats for the evening.

Gareth has recently finished touring with the West End production of Les Miserables and he has recently been busy with a BBC documentary — focusing on him working with youngsters battling to overcome their stammers — which airs later in November. He is also putting the final touches to a new album, due to be released shortly.
