Gary Naylor sees a classic revived - in a version discovered.
Written by Rodgers and Hart back in 1938 simply because a musical had never been based on a Shakespeare play before, 'The Boys From Syracuse' is the musical telling of The Comedy of Errors, packed with fun, mischief and playful tunes.
Having seen the London cast of Thriller Live performing at various events such as West End Live, but having never seen the whole show, I was keen to head to the Bristol Hippodrome to see the fully staged version.
