Thank You For The Music is the brainchild of
Mike Taylor, Director of Thank You For The Music Ltd. Mike is
no stranger to touring shows - he has brought many of the international
stars of the 1960's to 1980's to the UK, including Barry White,
Little Richard, Donna Summer, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Martha
Reeves and The Vandellas, The Temptations, Edwin Starr, George
McCrae, Ben E King and Tony Bennett. Mike went on to develop The
Complete Talent Agency Ltd supplying entertainment to major venues
including Butlins Holiday Worlds and other great venues across
the UK. He invented some of the best known tours of the 80's and
90's such as Giants of Motown, Festival of the Sixties, Giants
of the 70's, A Tribute to the Carpenters and many more.
His experience of winning touring shows was drawn
upon when the Thank You For The Music show was created. He hit
upon the idea of bringing a brand new tribute show to audiences
and as we were at the beginning of a 70's revival Mike decided
to use ABBA and The Bee Gee's, two of the greatest bands of the
1970's.
With ABBA guaranteed to create a party atmosphere
in which everyone could get up dance to, combining this with The
Bee Gee's, Mike put a complete show together which would appeal
to theatre audiences. He began to promote the show in theatres
across the United Kingdom and it took off, with many venues gaining
capacity audiences. He then took the show to far-flung places
such as Holland and Kenya. The spirit of ABBA and The Bee Gee's
certainly lives on all over the world.
Since those early days, there have been quite
a few changes to the show. A new cast was introduced in 2001,
and for this year, Mike has added a new Show to the line-up to
make this one the complete Thank You For The Music experience.
The rest of the show's line-up changes every year but ABBA and
The Bee Gee's remain, keeping the show on a 70's theme whilst
making every year a new Thank You For the Music experience. Mike
believes in giving value for money entertainment and this show
certainly gives you that!

continues to be a big hit and major success in the UK. 2006 saw the show embark on a European tour. Thank You For The Music, clocked up over 100 dates in 2007.
