Singer Beth Hart postpones Hershey Theatre appearance for a 2nd time
Singer Beth Hart has for the second time in the last seven months postponed her performance at Hershey Theatre.
She was scheduled to perform on April 18, but the theatre posted Tuesday on its Facebook page that those who have tickets should hold on to them for the new date that will be announced.
“As many of you know, I’ve been struggling to stabilize my mental health treatment,” she wrote. “It’s been a challenging journey, but I want you to know that I’m giving it my all to be able to tour without incident, and with the support of my new medical team, together we believe that I am on the right path, and I’m asking for your understanding and a bit more patience. Living with mental health issues, especially bipolar disorder, is a constant battle. My greatest fear would be embarking on the April/May tour only to have to cut it short due to my health.”
Hart originally planned to perform at Hershey Theatre on Oct. 2, 2023, but postponed that and other stops in early September, citing mental health issues and the need to get better.
Australian blues star Frank Sultana will open for Beth Hart on her upcoming Australian tour. The special guest announcement was revealed as tour promoters MJR Presents shared that tickets to Hart’s concert at Melbourne’s (Naarm) Hamer Hall sold out yesterday.
Fans who want to see Hart perform tracks from her latest album, A Tribute To Led Zeppelin, and other hits, as well as renowned bluesman Frank Sultana, had better get in quick, as tickets to Hart’s shows in Sydney (Eora), Adelaide (Kaurna) and Brisbane (Meanjin) are selling fast.
Hart returns to Australia this month. The tour of theatre shows begins on Saturday, 17 February, at the Eatons Hill Hotel in Brisbane, followed by the Adelaide Entertainment Centre on Monday, 19 February, Melbourne’s Hamer Hall on Thursday, 22 February, and Sydney’s Darling Harbour Theatre on Saturday, 24 February.
The LA Song (Out Of This Town) singer landed in Australia last April for a rip-roaring performance at Bluesfest. However, this tour marks Hart’s first range of tour dates down under since February 2019.
