West End stars to perform at Lytham Festival

West End and Broadway stars are heading to Lytham Festival in August 2016 to participate in the final act of the festival, West End Proms.

Performers including Lea Salonga, Ramin Karimloo, Ruthie Henshall, Jodie Prenger, Collabro, Claire Sweeney and Lucie-Mae Sumner will sing an array of hits alongside a 60-piece orchestra.

The festival will mark Miss Saigon star Salonga's only UK concert appearance of 2016.

The week-long festival takes place in a town on Fylde Coast in the north west of England with around 70 thousand people in attendance. Lytham Festival director Peter Taylor commented: "This is a great line up for our traditional Last Night of the Proms. All of these performers have a fantastic reputation and I cannot wait to see so much talent from the world of musical theatre on our stage."

Other acts in the festival include Village People, Liberty X and Bay City Rollers.

Tickets for the festival go on sale from 14 December.
