Billy Flynn

 

 

Marti made his West End debut on 10th June and was asked to play the part of Billy until 21st September. He was such a huge hit in the show that his run was extended until 16th November!

 

                               

 

As his run in Chicago at the Adelphi Theatre came to an end, his second album

Marti Sings The Hits Of Wet Wet Wet And Smile was released.

 

During 2003, Marti toured with Chicago, taking the show to Manchester, Liverpool, Dublin, Tokyo and Birmingham.

The shows proved to be so popular that extra matinees were added in both Liverpool and Birmingham. 

Chicago broke box office records at the Liverpool Empire in May, that was mostly due to Marti's amazing performances!

                                                     

In September, Marti sang a special arrangement of Love Is All Around at the Legends Awards in London.  Two months later

he was back on the promotional trail for the release of his third single, A Lot Of Love and

his third album, Between The Covers.          

 

2004 saw Marti embarking on his Between The Covers Tour.

 

Then it was back to Chicago!

Marti resumed his role as Billy Flynn in the West End for a limited season. He was due to stay in the role until 19th June 2004 but that was extended by one week, due to popular demand!

It is clear to see that Marti is really enjoying this role and he plays it with so much confidence!
