“After last year’s concert I was deluged by MAC fans saying The Barricade Boys were the best thing they’d ever seen on the MAC stage and pleading with me to bring them back…so we did,” Diana Martinez, director of the MAC, said in the news release.

The Barricade Boys feature four award-winning vocalists – Scott Garnham, Kieran Brown, Craig Mather and Simon Schofield, all “Les Misérables” alumni – performing a music mix ranging from pop to opera.

Between them, The Barricade Boys have an impressive list of West End credits, including “Mamma Mia,” “Wicked,” “Billy Elliot,” “The Book Of Mormon,” “The Sound Of Music,” “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat,” “Phantom Of The Opera” and more.
