ABC - An Intimate Evening With Martin Fry

  • Eric Morecambe Centre (map)
 
 

Martin Fry will bring an evening of stripped-back music and conversation to UK theatres and he is coming to The Eric Morecambe Centre in Harpenden!

Thursday, 29th May 2025, at 7.30pm
Ages 14+
Super VIP and VIP Packages available. Super VIP ticket holders advised to arrive at 5:30pm for a 5:45pm start.

The hits earned their place in pop history. From Poison Arrow to The Look Of Love, from All Of My Heart, and Be Near Me, to When Smokey Sings, ABC were the band that redefined glamour and cool.

Led by the charismatic Martin Fry, they enjoyed TransAtlantic success as The Lexicon of Love proved as artful as a Warhol silkscreen, and glossier than Marilyn’s lipstick. ABC’s The Lexicon of Love was a brilliantly distinctive debut album, fizzing with bright ideas, and unapologetically flamboyant. Frontman Martin Fry harked back to a golden era of luxe, as though Cole Porter had been re-imagined among the narrow streets of Sheffield. Little wonder his sleek, opulent, and beautiful debut retains the affection of listeners four decades on. With good reason, it has stood the test of time. 

 Martin's intimate tour follows a sold-out tour of the UK, which included three sell-out nights at the London Palladium, and coincides with the publication of his autobiography. That’s the look, that’s the look… The Look of Love.

Standard Ticket £34.50.

Super VIP and VIP Packages available. Super VIP: £85.00 (best seats, goody bag, pre-show meet ’n’ greet); and VIP: £52.50 (a goody bag, next best seats). Super VIP ticket holders advised to arrive at 5:30pm for a 5:45pm start.
