Copacabana Magic - The Barry Manilow Tribute Show

Copacabana Magic comes to the Swansea Grand Theatre on Thursday 20 May 2027, a tribute to Barry Manilow. Manilow's a global name with more than 85 million records sold worldwide, and this is a theatrical take on his catalogue rather than a straightforward concert.

At the centre of it is the vocalist Martyn James, an internationally acclaimed singer who takes the lead on the songs. He's backed by a live band, dancers, and visuals, and the production is billed as a feast for the senses. The set works its way through the classics you'll know: Mandy, Copacabana, and Can't Smile Without You are all in there, and they're the kind of songs that usually get the whole room singing along.

It's a full-stage production, so you've got the band and the dancers as well as the vocals. The show is built around Manilow's career, and with a catalogue as wide as his, there's plenty to draw from. If you've spent any time listening to his records, you'll recognise the songs as they come, and they're the ones that have kept him a household name for decades.

It's at the Swansea Grand Theatre on 20 May 2027, and the whole thing is built around the music of Barry Manilow, with Martyn James leading the way.
