Shout! To Run At The Arts Theatre
Shout! will get its West End premiere at the Arts Theatre in a 10-week season from Friday April 17 to Sunday June 28.
Starring Su Pollard, the feel-good musical is packed with more than 30 of the biggest pop hits of the 60s. Celebrating the fabulous, hazy days of swinging London, it's an affectionate reminder of the time when hippies were in the news, students took part in sit-ins, the Beatles conquered the world, the first man walked on the moon, the birth of Top of the Pops, Carnaby Street, England's World Cup triumph, the Twist, incredibly short skirts, beehive hair-dos, and laughable TV ads.
The hits - many by Burt Bacharach and Tony Hatch - just keep on coming, from the classic, timeless "Downtown", "Shout", "Son Of A Preacher Man", "I Only Wanna Be With You", "I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself", "Wishin' and Hopin'", "You Don't Have To Say You Love Me", "To Sir With Love" to "These Boots Are Made For Walkin'".
