Tonight's The Night - the hit West End musical inspired by the songs of Rod Stewart - is touring the UK throughout 2006."Featuring over 20 of Rod's greatest hits, Tonight's The Night is an all-singing, all-dancing chance to rediscover the magic of those timeless classics, including 'Maggie May,' 'Baby Jane,' 'Hot Legs,' 'Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?,' 'Some Guys Have All The Luck,' 'Ooh La La,' 'Sailing,' and 'Tonight's The Night," state press notes. The show is directed by C. Ray Ranger and choreographed by Denise Ranger.The show is written by multi award-winning writer and comedian Ben Elton (creator of the new hit sitcoms such as "Blessed," "The Young Ones," "Blackadder," "The Thin Blue Line" and author of more than ten best selling novels). Tonight's the Night features sets by Andrew Howe-Davies, lighting by Adam Bassett, sound by Rory Madden, costumes by Shereen Hibbert and musical supervision, musical direction and arrangements by Griff Johnson."Set on the mean streets of Detroit and in the glamorous clubs of
uptown LA, Tonight's The Night tells the story of a shy young man, so
tongue tied that he can not find the courage to declare his love to the
girl of his dreams. One night our hero strikes a deal with the Devil,
trading his soul for Rod Stewart's. It seems like a good idea at the
time but this guy is about to find out the hard way that you can't find
true love using another man's moves and that devil or no devil, there's
only one Rod Stewart!"
The show features Ryan Molloy, Tiffany Graves, Rachel Tucker, Jeff
Edwards, Daniel Robinson, Nathanial Morrison, and Kristina Paraskeva.A tour schedule follows:March6-11, ABERDEEN, His Majesty's Theatre – 01224 6411213-18, EDINBURGH, Playhouse – 0870 606 342420-25, LEICESTER, De Montfort Hall 0116 233 311127-Apr 1, NOTTINGHAM, Theatre Royal – 0115 989 5555 April3-8, BRISTOL, Hippodrome – 0870 607 750010-15, WOKING, New Victoria – 01483 545 90017-22, STOKE ON TRENT, Regent Theatre – 0870 060 664922-29, PLYMOUTH, Theatre Royal – 01752 267 222May1-6, SOUTHAMPTON, Mayflower – 02380 711 8118-13, WOLVERHAMPTON, Grand – 01902 57 33 0615-20, IPSWICH, Regent Theatre – 01473 433 55522-27, BIRMINGHAM, Hippodrome – 0121 622 748629- Jun 3, SUNDERLAND, Empire – 0870 602 1130June5-10, OXFORD, New Theatre – 0870 606 350012-17 LONDON, New Wimbledon Theatre – 0870 060 664619-24 LIVERPOOL, Empire - 0870 606 353626-31 SOUTHEND, Cliffs Pavilion – 01702 351135July3rd - 8th CARDIFF, Wales Millenium Centre – Tel: 08700 40200010th - 12th SHEFFIELD, City Hall – Tel: 0114 278 978913th - 15th BLACKPOOL, Opera House – Tel: 01253 292029
