PET SHOP BOYS ANNOUNCE SECOND SHOW AT SAGE GATESHEAD

Electronic Pop icons, Pet Shop Boys, are returning to the North East. Their show at Sage Gateshead on 2nd September sold out very quickly and they have just announced a second date on 3rd September 2017! Tickets will go on sale on Wednesday 7th June at 10am via www.myticket.co.uk.

The band will play songs from their entire career as well as from their current album Super.

When the show was premiered last summer in a sold-out season at the Royal Opera House in London, it was described by The Independent newspaper as "a vivid, laser-laden spectacular" while the Daily Telegraph raved that "the show encompasses high culture, club culture, theatre, cinema, political satire and a mind-bending laser show".

The Super tour is staged by long-term Pet Shop Boys designer Es Devlin and choreographer Lynne Page and the live arrangements were created together with Stuart Price, who produced the Super album.

For over 25 years the Pet Shop Boys have been regarded as innovators of the modern live music show, incorporating multimedia and theatrical elements into their productions, and they have worked with Derek Jarman, Zaha Hadid and Sam Taylor-Johnson.


The first single from the new album Super, "The Pop Kids" reached #1 on Billboard's U.S. Dance Club Charts in which Pet Shop Boys are the most successful duo and male artists ever.
