Captain Fantastic & The Rocket Man Band

The Greatest Elton John Show on the Planet!

Celebrating more than five decades of amazing music and showmanship from legendary British singer, pianist and composer, Sir Elton John.

Featuring the spellbinding voice and magnetic stage presence of pianist Richard Reeves as the Captain, and including iconic hits;

"Your Song", "Rocket Man", "Crocodile Rock", "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road", "Bennie and the Jets", "Tiny Dancer”, "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me", "Philadelphia Freedom", "Don't Go Breaking My Heart", "Candle in the Wind" and from the classic Captain Fantastic album, "Someone Saved My Life Tonight".

Richard met Elton John backstage at a show when he was only 12 years old. Elton sent Richard an encouraging note wishing him luck after he sang and played piano for him. The rest was history.

20 years on, Richard, as Captain Fantastic, with his phenomenal Rocket Man Band, are acclaimed as the greatest Elton John show on the planet, recreating note-for-note live on stage one of the greatest music catalogues in history.
