Chelmsford Theatre Studio
Sunday 4 October 2026
Get ready for an unforgettable night with one of the world’s most captivating performers.
Russell Watson – the original crossover superstar – exploded onto the music scene with The Voice, a debut album that shattered records and won hearts across the globe. Since then, he’s sold millions of albums, performed for royalty, presidents and popes, and shared the stage with musical legends.
Now, in his most intimate tour to date, Russell takes you on a journey through the highs and lows of an extraordinary life – from chart-topping success to surviving not one, but two life-threatening illnesses. With warmth, humour, and a voice that soars, he’ll share the personal stories behind the spotlight.
Expect powerful renditions of beloved classics, spine-tingling vocals, and behind-the-scenes tales from a man who’s truly lived it all.
This is more than a concert – it’s a rare chance to spend an evening up close with The Voice himself.
