A pair of highly-acclaimed tribute shows are hitting the stage at the Carnegie Theatre, in Workington, next month.

The month gets under way with a visit from Magic: A Kind of Queen on Saturday April 1, from 8pm.

A band that were formed more than 40 years ago, they have been performing Queen hits since the legendary rock band were just beginning to make a name for themselves.

Over the past three decades, Magic have built their reputation and following, performing material of great complexity both vocally and instrumentally to an incredibly high standard. This has given them huge success in across the world, as well as in major theatres the length and breadth of Great Britain.

They headlined a concert in Gorky Park, Moscow, by request of the Russian government, and have played venues in Hong Kong, America, the Middle East and throughout Europe.

On Friday April 7, at 7.30pm, it is the turn of Bowie Starman - taking on the greatest hits of the late superstar, such as Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane, Thin White Duke, Major Tom and more.

Songs from all eras of David Bowie's celebrated career are performed to perfection in this highly-charged show.

The finest musicians and singers combine with an amazing performance from theatre stage star Michael King, accompanied big screen audio visual footage, and various costume changes.

Tickets for both shows are available from the Carnegie Theatre box office.
