The North-East's King of Variety, Chris Cross the Magician, Will Host his Biggest Show to date this September...

Fifteen World Class Performers in One BIG Variety Show

Chris Cross, 26, from the West End of Newcastle has announced he will host a World Class Variety Show in Newcastle's Tyne Theatre & Opera House -

He has promised the people of Newcastle that he will ''Improve the Cabaret Culture'' in the region and give them the biggest variety show that's happened in the North East in over a decade.

Chris Cross hosts a show of Magic, Acrobatics, Escapology, Comedy, Circus Feats, Juggling, Singing, Dancing & Much, Much More!

CROSS: ''I have 15 World Class acts on board, gathered from all over the UK, This is something that rarely happens. Newcastle is in for a real treat.

Expect the Unexpected. This Show is a real throwback to the eccentricities of the old music-halls. Magic, Escapology, Comedy, Acrobats, Jugglers, Singers, Dancers and More!

I've put together the Best Local Acts from the region with the cream of the cabaret crop from around the rest of the Nation too - From the Best Bobby Thompson tribute act around, Comedians Alfie Joey, Sue Sweeney & Bobby Pattinson to a guy who disappears inside of a Giant Balloon and re-appears dressed as Elvis, a troupe of Feathered Dancing Can-Can Girls, Award Winning Acrobats, Hat Manipulation Artistes, Magicians and Much, Much More. I will be performing my Upside Don Escapology stunt. I fractured my hand in rehearsals, but I'm now on the mend and on track to bringing a breathtaking act to the stage. This really will be a show bursting at the seams with Unusual & Spectacular British talent.''

''Too many people in this country, especially up here, just sit in the house watching TV. We need to bring back a bit of Class.

The best form of entertainment is LIVE entertainment and it needs to be kept ALIVE! We have the Oldest Working Victorian Theatre in the World, right here on our doorsteps.

Not everyone has seen inside the beautiful venue though - The Theatre should be affordable for Everyone, like it once was. Show tickets can cost over £50 now and that's just for one act!

By pricing my show at only £12 for FIFTEEN Acts (that's only 80p per world class performance) it's an affordable price for most to pay -

My North-East show costs the same price as a couple of cups of coffee and a piece of cake in London!

There's OVER 280,000 people that live just in Newcastle and we only have 1,100 seats -

You best book your tickets. Quickly.''

PAUL DANIELS

Earlier this month, Cross had to cancel a mini-tour with Paul Daniels & Debbie McGee, due to Daniels's diagnosis of a terminal brain tumour.

The Magical duo were to appear in Yorkshire & Newcastle following a Sold Out ''Paul Daniels & Chris Cross Magic Show'' in Newcastle last year at ''The Quayside Cabaret Club''

Daniels was a big influence on Cross's career, offering him advice and even came up with his stage name ''Chris Cross''

CROSS: ''It's been such a blow and a shock for me. The Man who made me want to do what I do and who has been a great inspiration has been diagnosed with an incurable brain tumour.

Paul is a Showbusiness Legend and a National Treasure. Goodness know how he hasn't been honoured with an OBE yet. It was an honour to perform alongside him last year at my Cabaret Club.''
