TOWNGATE Theatre is thrilled to announce pop legend Lulu is coming to Basildon next year.


From Shout to James Bond, from To Sir With Love to the Eurovision Song Contest, Lulu is a bona fide British music icon.
On the eve of the 60th anniversary of Shout, she will be touring the UK for the first time since Autumn 2019 with her most intimate show to date. 


For The Record will combine remarkable stories and stunning clips with song. 
The show will be a chance to get to know the star, who has entertained legions of fans across 60 glorious years. 
Lulu said: “I’m excited to be sharing my story and my music with my first tour in four years. It’s been an incredible story and I’m looking forward to telling that in For The Record. This is a completely different show to anything I’ve ever done before.”
It will kick off in April 2023 at Eastleigh Thornden Hall before visiting Scotland, Wales and all corners of England.


The show will feature stories from Lulu’s remarkable career, from being friends with The Beatles; to marrying a Bee Gee; winning the Eurovision Song Contest; enjoying a colossal hit with Shout; her relationship with David Bowie; and the wonder of Relight My Fire, her Number One hit with Take That. 
There will be exclusive photography and video footage, as well as incredible songs from a pop icon, whose star continues to burn bright. 


Tickets are now on general release. Lulu: For The Record Date shows on Sunday, November 5, 2023 at 7.30pm at the Towngate Theatre, St Martin’s Square. Tickets cost from £37 to £82.
