FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NOVEMBER 9, 2010 BOULEVARD CASINO PRESENTS HERMAN’S HERMITS STARRING PETER NOONE LIVE AT THE RED ROBINSON SHOW THEATRE FRIDAY, APRIL 1 Coquitlam, BC – Peter Noone is a multi-talented entertainer who has been delighting audiences nearly all his life. He was born in Manchester, England where he studied voice and acting at St. Bede’s College and the Manchester School of Music and Drama. As a child, he played “Stanley Fairclough” on the long-running British soap opera, Coronation Street. It was in 1963 when at the age of fifteen, Noone achieved international fame as “Herman” … lead singer of the legendary pop band, Herman’s Hermits. Their classic hits include “I’m Into Something Good,” “Can’t You Hear My Heartbeat,” “Mrs. Brown, You’ve Got a Lovely Daughter,” “I’m Henry Vlll, I Am,” “A Must to Avoid,“ “Listen People” and “There’s A Kind of Hush.” Ultimately, the band sold over fifty-two million recordings … in all, fourteen singles and seven albums went Gold. Noone soon graced the cover of nearly every international publication including TIME Magazine. He performed on numerous television shows and appeared with such luminaries as Ed Sullivan, Jackie Gleason and Dean Martin. He also starred in three highly successful feature films for M-G-M (When The Boys Meet The Girls, Hold On! and Mrs. Brown, You’ve Got A Lovely Daughter) and took on several leading roles in theatrical productions of Dick Wittington, Aladdin and Sinbad The Sailor. In the 80’s, Noone starred on Broadway in the New York Shakespeare Festival’s production of Gilbert and Sullivan’s The Pirate of Penzance in the role of “Frederic” for which his performance was so well-received that he went on to reprise the role with both the U.S. National Touring Company and the International Touring Company of Pirates. The 90’s found him embarking on a four-year stint as the winsome host of VH1’s My Generation. Today Noone and his band, Herman’s Hermits perform over 200 concerts a year where they consistently play to sold-out venues with their fans spanning the generations. Their upcoming schedule will include a concert at Boulevard Casino’s Red Robinson Show Theatre in April, 2011.
