Having delighted audiences across the UK with his Big Christmas Assembly tour, playing to tens of thousands and selling out venues up and down the country, James’ star continues to rise.

What started as a few playful performances for his pupils has grown into a nationwide phenomenon.

From viral social media fame to a field-closing Glastonbury set, James has become one of the UK’s most beloved musical nostalgia acts, all while continuing to teach primary school children during the week.

He has recently appeared on Chris Evans’ Virgin Radio Breakfast Show, BBC Radio 2, The One Show and Songs of Praise.

Theatre-goers should expect classic school-day singalongs, heart-on-sleeve nostalgia and the infectious joy that has made James a national favourite.

Tickets cost from £26.50 in advance before fees and are available via www.jamesbpartridge.com
