Ellis Live Ltd presents Faith - The George Michael Legacy



Don’t accept imitations FAITH – THE GEORGE MICHAEL LEGACY features international George Michael tribute artist Wayne Dilks together with his incredible 7 piece band and backing singers. A musical journey of 35 years of hit records from Wham to George’s solo career, the show and production are based upon the George Michael 25 live tour (also known as the 25th anniversary tour) Our show uses actual video footage from the 25 live tour displayed on our unique video wall, this is a first for any UK theatre show.



Join us in celebration to the life of one of the world’s most successful male artists selling over 100 million records worldwide and encompassing 11 British number 1 singles, 8 British number 1 albums and 6 US number 1 singles in a spell binding spectacle of his songs.



To produce a show that pays tribute to such a true musical legend and possibly the finest solo star Britain has ever produced takes huge dedication and commitment, Wayne Dilks has been performing the songs of George Michael for over 16 years and is internationally recognised as the closest in vocal, stage presence and look. So much so that he was invited to perform twice on ITV’s Stars in their eyes both in 2002 and again in the 2004 live tour shows.



Wayne has appeared on countless radio stations for interviews in the UK and abroad and appeared on ITV’s Loose women in 2011 as a birthday surprise for presenter Kate Thornton. In the last couple of years his tribute show has reached new heights with shows in USA and Russia. In December 2014 on the 30th Anniversary of the Wham! hit “Last Christmas” he performed in Saas Fe, Switzerland which was the location for the iconic 1984 video.



This amazing show is a celebration of 35 years of hit records and will take you on a journey from Georges early years with Wham to his successful solo career. Performing those everlasting hits such as “Club Tropicana”, “Wake Me Up Before You Go Go”, “I’m Your Man”, “Faith”, “Father Figure”, “Fast Love”, “Amazing” and “Outside”. Not forgetting the romantics, his tribute would not be complete without the timeless ballads like “Careless Whisper”, “A Different Corner” and “Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me”. If you are a fan please join us on a journey and celebrate the incredible legacy George left us all.
