The music legend that is Alexander O'Neal is to grace the stage of Warrington's Parr Hall next month.

Alexander is reputedly the best pure singer to come from the 1980s soul/RnB era, when he released a string of memorable hits which are still broadcast as radio requests and played at thousands of events around the world.

His most popular tracks include Fake, Criticize, If You Were Here Tonight, Saturday Love, Never Knew Love Like This, Sunshine, Secret Lovers and many more, and his album Hearsay sold nearly a million copies in the UK alone.

To this day he still holds the record as the only performer to sell out for six consecutive nights at London's Wembley Arena.

This soul man still has an undying passion to perform and his live shows reflect that, so come and join the party for an evening not to be forgotten.

Tickets for the show, on Tuesday 7 November at 6.45pm, are on sale now.

Pyramid and Parr Hall are two of the North West's leading arts and entertainment venues for music, comedy, dance, drama and much more. The venues have played host to big name acts including John Bishop, The Stone Roses, Billy Ocean, Jools Holland, and Peter Kay, to name a few.

Parr Hall is a listed building and has been a long standing feature of Warrington's cultural scene since its opening in 1895. It is a medium sized concert venue with 1000 seats.

Pyramid opened in 2002, with support from Arts Council England and the National Lottery, as an arts centre focusing on smaller performances and community events. It offers a range of spaces to hire for events, weddings and conferences.

The venues are run by Culture Warrington, which is a charitable trust that was established in May 2012 to also manage Warrington Museum & Art Gallery and cultural events across the town including Warrington Festival and Warrington Contemporary Arts Festival.
