Reasons to be Cheerful (Captioned in house)
- Genre
- Drama
It's 1979, Ian Dury and the Blockhead's new single Reasons To Be Cheerful (Part 3) is climbing the charts. Vinnie and his mates are big Ian Dury fans and they’re desperate for tickets to see him at the Hammersmith Odeon, but the gig’s sold out. Vinnie will do anything to see the Blockheads, but life is complicated. When the chance of going to the gig falls into his lap, Vinnie‘s pilgrimage from Southend to Hammersmith turns into the most extraordinary journey of his life.
Set during a time of political change and social upheaval, the show includes some of Dury’s best loved songs (What a Waste, Sweet Gene Vincent, Clever Trevor, Reasons to be Cheerful) played live by an astonishingly versatile company of actor-musicians. This is a show with all the wit, cheek and rascally defiance of Dury himself.
