BJORN Again 20th Anniversary Tour review
A spectacular and amusing show, Bjorn Again 20th Anniversary Tour at the Congress Theatre, Eastbourne on Thursday entertained an appreciative audience with more than 20 Abba Songs for two hours.
This talented tribute band had us singing along and laughing out loud, especially when we were asked to imagine the beautiful, bronzed body of Pearce Brosnan as they recreated one of the hits from the film Mamma Mia. And they left us calling out for more!
Robin Scott, as Benny, and George Hutchison, as Bjorn, who also proved to be excellent musicians, treated us to some great solo performances and a bit of Bon Jovi for good measure. Diana Edwards (Agnetha) and Sarah Fearnley (Anni-Frid) also sang with gusto and all four bore visual similarities to the original Abba stars.
Robin maintained the upbeat tempo with a moon walk and rap version of Take a Chance On Me.
Young children danced joyfully in the aisles with adults and were taken up on stage at the end to join in Dancing Queen.
The choreography and stage sets were excellent, and this feel good show also featured the voice of Radio DJ Tony Blackburn, playing UK hits of 1988.
It was a great evening of nostalgia!
