Bromley Players Present SIDE SHOW At The Bob Hope Theatre

Following its successful Broadway revival in 2014 and recent London premier in 2016 at Southwark Playhouse, Bromley Players presents Side Show at the Bob Hope Theatre from the 24th - 27th October. This will be a premier performance at the Bob Hope Theatre of this rarely performed but deeply touching musical by Bill Russell and Harvey Kreiger.

With echoes of last year's smash hit musical The Greatest Showman, Side Show is based on the true story of conjoined twins and famed entertainers Violet and Daisy Hilton, a remarkable musical about acceptance, love and embracing one's uniqueness.

As the starring act of a sideshow, helmed by an abusive ringmaster, Violet and Daisy Hilton are eager to accept an offer of fame, fortune, and potential romance proffered by Terry, a talent scout, and Buddy, a budding musician. As stars on the Orpheum Circuit, it seems that Violet and Daisy have everything they ever wanted. The one thing they lack, however, is the fulfilment of their hearts' desires. Different as they are, when it comes to matters of the heart, Daisy and Violet have the same burning questions: "Who could proudly stand beside me? Who will love me as I am?"

Almost entirely sung-through, Side Show features soulful music, stunningly beautiful lyrics, and powerhouse show-stoppers, particularly the famous duets "Who Will Love Me as I Am" and "I Will Never Leave You."

A stunning reminder of the importance of accepting and celebrating what makes us unique, Side Show is a true story that will touch audience's hearts.
