Ramin, the Oliver-nominated musical theatre superstar, kicked off his 10-date UK tour last night at London’s Royal Festival Hall. Backed by an orchestra Ramin raised the roof with his powerhouse vocals and even displayed his talents with the guitar, piano and even a banjo!
 Playing tracks from his debut self-titled album, which recently shot straight into the Top 20, Ramin had the audience captivated with versions of ‘Music Of The Night’ and ‘Til I Hear You Sing’ and ‘Coming Home’.
There was excitement aplenty as Ramin introduced several special guests to the stage to perform with him including McFly’s Tom Fletcher who sang their Number 1 hit ‘It’s All About You’ with Ramin encouraging the audience to sing and sway along to the chorus.
Tom commented: “That’s the first time I’ve sung that song with anyone other than Danny” and joked that perhaps Ramin would like to take his place in the band.
Other guests included Sebastien Izambard from Il Divo whose vocals blended amazingly well with Ramin’s as they belted out Muse’s ‘Guiding Light’ followed by a brand new track written by Ramin called ‘Broken’. Ramin also invited fellow Les Miserables star Tim Howard on stage to sing a couple of tracks solo and duet with Ramin on his album track ‘Eyes Of A Child’.
Hearts melted when Ramin’s son Jaiden was brought on stage, Ramin explaining that he wanted to know what it felt like being on stage. It was Jaiden who went on to steal the show and the hearts of the audience as he went to the mic during a piano and vocal version of Leonard Cohen’s ‘Hallejuah’ and sang the chorus!
The night ended with a standing ovation and a cover of Green Day’s ‘Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)’ and looking at the upstanding audience they really did have the time of their lives.
