Tenor Mark Vincent is bringing his acclaimed two-act show to the Laycock Street Theatre on Sunday, October 1.
Vincent pays tribute to operatic icons Mario Lanza and The Three Tenors – Luciano Pavarotti, Plácido Domingo and José Carreras – dedicating one half of the show respectively to each of these legendary acts.
With two tributes in one show, Vincent will present the most beloved hits of Mario Lanza in Act One, with a tribute to The Three Tenors in Act Two.
Vincent has been touring extensively throughout 2023, focusing on shows in regional locations and bringing a world-class experience to country theatres.
Having caught national attention when he appeared as a 15-year-old winning Australia’s Got Talent, Vincent’s career to date has been a series of extraordinary highs and he has grown into one of the world’s most remarkable tenors.
“Mario Lanza, in my humble opinion, was one of the greatest voices of the 21st century,” he said.
“He was the ‘triple threat’ – he could sing, act and looked amazing in films and stage.
“That voice will never be forgotten.
“For the second act, I am truly honoured to be paying tribute to the greatest singers in the world, Pavarotti, Domingo and Carreras.
“I can remember as a child watching The Three Tenors in concert at Madison Square Garden in 1992.
“United States President George Bush along with Frank Sinatra and many other performers (were there) that day.
“It made me, as a young boy, realise that I wanted to follow in these tenors’ footsteps; that day inspired me to become a tenor.
“In this show you can expect a variety of different songs from arias to classic ballads, as well as musical theatre numbers that the tenors performed throughout their respective careers.
“These will be songs that the audience will love and know.”
Mark Vincent will perform at the Laycock St Community Theatre at 2pm on Sunday, October 1.
