Louise Rowe, mam to Eve and Beth said: “I’m really excited to see the girls perform. It’s going to be such an emotional moment, but so special.

“They were unable to take part last year, so are really looking forward to taking part, this year - it’s going to be beautiful.

“Lisa has chosen the songs as they were special to Chloe. Neither of the girls knew the songs, so they have been working really hard to make them perfect for their Chloe and Liam.

“Beth will be dancing alongside Charlotte who has choreographed the routine, while Eve is being supported by Chloe’s friend Stacey Ghent.”

The show starts 6.30pm. Tickets priced £10 are available now from the Customs House box office or by visiting www.customshouse.co.uk/cinema/together-forever-variety-show-/
