The acclaimed show sees musicians Daniel Holdsworth and Tom Bamford battle with a stage full of instruments to reproduce Mike Oldfield’s classic Tubular Bells album live.

Composed by Mike Oldfield in 1973, the album was the first release on Richard Branson's fledgling record label, Virgin Records.

The album went on to sell over 30 million copies - kick-starting the Virgin empire - and became the soundtrack to the cult-classic film, The Exorcist.

Tubular Bells For Two made its UK debut at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2012, where it wowed critics and audience alike, winning five-star reviews and much-coveted Herald Angel and Sixth Star Bobby awards, and has sold out many British concert venues on subsequent tours since.

GypsyFingers, featuring Luke and Victoria Oldfield, will open the show.
