FORMER hostage Terry Waite will be the guest in the first of a series of Celebrity Concerts held this summer.
Mr Waite, who hit the headlines after being held captive for several years in the Middle East will appear at the Spa Grand Hall, Scarborough on June 2.
Selected items of his favourite music will be played while he tells of his experiences in captivity.
His appearance will be followed by other Celebrity Concerts to be hosted by concert pianist Vincent Billington on Mondays until August 25.
Mr Billington said: "I am delighted to be returning to the Spa Grand Hall to present these concerts which I feel will augment the already excellent variety of music presented by Simon Kenworthy and the Spa Orchestra."
Tickets are on sale for the first event.
