CHORLEY played host where the stars were invited to shine in a new variety show.

Telstar Entertainments launched the show, entitled "The Jewels of the Night" at the Holycroft Club on Harpers Lane.

The show saw performances from The Jewels Of The Night dancers, from Park Street's Mar-Jan Stage School, magician Jonathan Barrett, singer Georgina Jones and Stan Boardman's son Paul (pictured).

But the star of the show was singer Jonny Martino, who has recently produced a CD and is appearing on satellite channel Granada Breeze later this month.

The show, a sell out, is travelling on a whistlestop tour of the country before heading to Bahrain.

Telstar are also on the look out for new acts who think they've got what it takes to please the crowd.
