If so, Dreamboats and Petticoats could be right up your street!
In 1961 emotions run high as young musicians Norman and Bobby compete to win a national songwriting competition – and, more importantly, the attention of the gorgeous Sue! But when Bobby discovers that shy Laura is no slouch on the piano, love and rock 'n' roll fame beckons...
This dazzling musical features songs from Roy Orbison, The Shadows, Eddie Cochran, Billy Fury, Chuck Berry and many more, including Let’s Dance, Three Steps to Heaven, Shakin’ All Over, Let’s Twist Again and a string of hits from music’s golden era.
Captioned performance
The show is being captioned on Wednesday 16 June, 7.30pm, at London’s Playhouse Theatre. This is the first captioned show at the venue, so we’re hoping for a huge turnout.
Seats for viewing the captions are in the Dress Circle, and you can book tickets on 0844 871 7677 or email: ticketcentre@theambassadors.com
