The West End’s original and favourite 70’s musical is back on the road for over 50 gangbusting dates in 2013. It was 1997 when Jon Conway and Shane Richie conceived what was to become the first jukebox pop musical, way before ‘We Will Rock you’, ‘Mamma Mia’ and ‘Our House’ followed their lead. Indeed way before the dodgy movie of the same name, not to be confused with the film, this is the ultimate party show, with over 2,000 performances and a story set to the incidental music of our lives, for a certain generation!
The hilarious and heartwarming story of Roddy O’Neil, set in a provincial British town in the height of the disco seventies, the decade that fashion forgot, became a massive hit show that ran five amazing UK tours after it’s London success, before then travelling to South Africa, New Zealand and America, where it is now a fixture on several cruise ships.
Now, a remixed concert version sees the original characters in a packed hit-fest that promises 70 songs from the 70’s, that allows video images on a giant back drop to enhance an amazing array of live music and all star cast on the concert stage for one night only.
