Celebcity: No limits
Diversity’s new tour, Macmillan fundraising success and Carrie Reichardt’s new solo show
Dance superstars Diversity are back in Brighton at the beginning of December. After wowing audiences last winter with their astounding ‘Limitless’ arena tour, Diversity have this evening announced ‘Limitless – The Reboot’ on Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway.
‘Limitless – The Reboot’ is a fully improved and updated version of their critically acclaimed show.
And judging by the group’s motto “Dream, Believe, Achieve”, Diversity are a remarkable example of what can be accomplished with hard work, dedication and belief.
Since winning Britain’s Got Talent in 2009, Diversity have won numerous awards, been the first act to perform outside No. 10 Downing Street in front of the Prime Minister and have sold out three UK & Ireland tours – “Diversity’s: Bringing A Toy Story To Life” and ‘Digitized – Trapped In The Game’.
Their previous Diversity tours saw have seen them travelling the length of the country performing for their legion of devoted fans, and delivering exceptional entertainment with some stand-out reviews. Normally incorporating several genres of music from classical to hip-hop, their diverse, eye-catching routines won the hearts of the nation. So far they’ve performed live to more than 1 million people across the world.
Creator Ashley Banjo will soon start his fifth season as a judge on the Sky 1 show ‘Got To Dance’, followed by another series of the Sky 1 hit show ‘Ashley Banjo’s Secret Street Crew’.
Ashley’s Sky 1 show ‘Big Town Dance’ recently concluded with the UK’s largest ever town dance, as 10,000 people of Stockon-on-Tees came together in a community dance performance. In creating the ‘Big Town Dance’, Ashley presented a heartwarming view of a town that progressed through an amazing journey to come together in an unprecedented event.
Fellow Diversity troupe member Perri Kiely was recently crowned champion of ITV’s ‘Splash!’, and is set to travel to LA with Jordan Banjo as UK presenters of Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards, and will be interviewing all the attending stars on the Red Carpet.
2015 looks set to be another busy year for Diversity and the new arena tour will be everything you already love about Diversity on a much bigger scale, with loads of surprises! Don’t miss out!
Diversity have added an extra matinee performance to their Brighton Centre date and tickets are still available for Sunday December 7 at 1.45pm.

Mexican Madness
The amazing ‘Renegade Potter’ Carrie Reichardt brings her own particular brand of craftivism to Brighton’s Ink_d gallery this week in her jaw-droppingly arresting solo show, Mad In Mexico.
The work has been inspired by the activism, ideology and warmth of the people Carrie met on her recent South American voyage of discovery; her self-titled “Radical Mexican Mosaic Mission”. Carrie’s work is also included in
the V&A’s amazing Disobedient Objects exhibit (running until 1 February 2015) but you lucky Brightonians can see her work until 24 December right on your doorstep at the North Road gallery. Don’t miss this one.
Show dates: 15 November – 24 December www.ink_d.co.uk
