Brand-new 80s visionary show Once In A Lifetime at Chequer Mead

Spokeswoman Darcey O'Rourke said: “Get ready to rewind to a time when music wasn't just heard, it was felt. Once In A Lifetime isn't your average tribute show; it's a meticulously crafted journey back to the heart of the 80s, where groundbreaking artists redefined the soundscape.

“Forget the shoulder pads and questionable hairstyles. We're talking about the raw talent and undeniable genius of bands and artists like U2, The Police, Tears for Fears, Toto, Prince, Kate Bush, Bruce Springsteen, Hall & Oates, The Smiths, and many more.

“From the production team behind bestselling shows The History of Rock, Made In Tennessee, The Elton John Show and The History of Soul, expect the same calibre of world class musicians as they obsessively recreate every note, riff and vocal nuance. Once In A Lifetime brings these iconic tracks to life with breathtaking accuracy and a palpable passion.”

Lead singer Lewis Codling said: “These weren't just pop stars; they were visionaries. We wanted to avoid the cheesy clichés and instead create a show that honours the complexity and passion of music that shaped a generation. This is your chance to experience the very best of the 80s – powerful, innovative, and undeniably cool! It's more than a concert; it's an experience.”
