Sorry if this sounds a bit excitable, but Stevenage Celebrate!!! is only a fortnight away.

Celebrate!!! – those three exclamation marks are very much part of the title for the annual show – will be at the town’s Gordon Craig Theatre on Saturday, October 25, for a packed showcase of local talent representing all sections of the community.

Now in its 13th year, the popular event brings a variety bill of music, dance and fashion talent to the stage, highlighting the new town’s many different cultures.

This year homegrown headliner Gabz – Gabrielle Gardiner – is just one of those who will be in the spotlight.

Stevenage World Forum chair Kate Belinis said: “We’re thrilled that Celebrate!!! is back for another year and can’t wait for people to see what we’ve got planned for the show.

“Not only do we have Gabz performing, we also have many other performers who will be paying tribute to the rich and vibrant cultures that this town has produced.

Tickets for Celebrate!!! cost £7.50 from box office on 01438 363 200 or online at www.gordon-craig.co.uk.
