Fry’s sharp and fast-paced script, combined with toe-tapping and uplifting music by Noel Gay (including the famous Lambeth Walk, The Sun Has Got His Hat On and Leaning On A Lamp Post), make this a sublime and sunny treat for all fans of musical comedy!
Bill Snibson, a Lambeth market stall trader, is revealed to be the new Earl of Hareford and his newly-discovered aristocratic relations are horrified. Bringing him to Hareford Hall, they attempt to educate Bill into the ways of the gentry and to separate him from his cockney girlfriend Sally. The result is comic chaos that will appeal to all ages! With a host of hilarious characters, catchy tunes, witty one-liners and spectacular choreography, this is a show not to be missed.
This recently revised production has enjoyed successful runs in the West End (receiving two Olivier Awards) and Broadway (winning three of its eleven Tony Award nominations) and most recently in Chichester featuring Matt Lucas.
BLOC Productions has an enviable reputation for staging spectacular award-winning shows for all generations. Their last three shows delighted audiences and critics alike: A Christmas Carol received dazzling reviews, Elf – The Musical played to full houses for every performance and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang won the Rose Bowl for Best Musical.
This amateur production is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals. The Wednesday evening performance will be signed.
Bristol Hippodrome
The Bristol Hippodrome, the city’s very own West End theatre, opened its doors on 16 December 1912 when the curtain rose for the first time on what was generally agreed to be Oswald Stoll’s most magnificent provincial theatre.
It is a superb example of the grand architecture of the late Victorian era and is one of the masterpieces of design by Frank Matcham, the most eminent theatre architect of his time.
Towards the beginning of the century, the theatre staged a variety of acts as a Music Hall. Since then, and due to the fact that it has one of the largest theatre stages in Britain, The Bristol Hippodrome has established itself on the touring circuit for all major musical productions, thus becoming known as Bristol’s West End Theatre.
