Jukebox Musicals

	Bugle Boy by Den Stevenson *Minimum Cast Size* : Principals 2m, 1f; Support 5m, 1f. 'Bugle Boy' charts the life story of Glenn Miller, and is the first Glenn Miller musical spanning his life from leaving college to his untimely and mysterious disappearance in 1944. Famous and instantly recognisable tunes weave together a love story and Glenn Miller’s blinkered determination to find a unique musical sound. With an on-stage big band, this fantastic new musical will once again put you and your audiences 'in the mood'!

	Edith & Simone *Minimum Cast Size* : 5m, 6f, 1f-jnr A life-telling story about the French singer Edith Piaf seen through the eyes of her little known about half-sister, Simone. What does it mean for Simone to live in the shadow of an icon, to endure her tempers, to depend on her, emotionally as well as financially? All this combined with the strong conviction, perhaps even envy, that with a little bit of luck she could have been in Edith’s place.

	Free And Easy by Bill Cronshaw Prinicpals : 5m, 4f (plus a 3-piece band & backing singers) Enjoy a real nostalgia treat with this gently humorous, hugely entertaining, piece of escapism. Set to a backdrop of over fifteen hits of the 50s and 60's, we follow the trials and tribulations of Eric Dobbins, the dryly nonchalant publican, and his matriarchal wife, Iris (a stereotypical landlady), as they, their staff and their regulars fight to save the pub from the unscrupulous hands of the brewery manager who sees it as a potential lap-dancing venue. Requires a cast of competent singers and a three-piece band. Pay for Licences as a Play With Music.

	Judy: the musical Principals 3f Support : min of 7m, 2f plus an ensemble. 'Judy' is a play with music (and a jukebox musical) which encompasses the life story of Judy Garland from early childhood to her untimely death at the age of forty-seven in 1969. The first act is devoted to her years as a young Hollywood film-star, and the second is largely given over to her latter-day on-stage life in concert. Her journey is punctuated with the songs that made her famous, and with the relationships that accompanied her throughout her life.

	Rockin' Robin Coming Soon!

	What's New Pussycat? by Judith Prior Prinicpals : 5m, 12f, 8m/f (plus chorus) A light hearted, fun musical for a large mixed cast of young people. Inspired by the story of 'Puss in Boots' the show embraces an eclectic collection of great pop and rock songs drawn from the rock era of the fifties and sixties through to today’s hit parade that the cast and audience will identify with and enjoy. Including 'Material Girl', 'I Wanna Be a Billionaire', 'These Boots Were Made For Walkin', 'Walk Right In', 'You Better Shop Around', 'Ballin’ the Jack', 'Congratulations', 'What’s New Pussycat?', 'Hey Baby', 'Simple Simon Says', and more. Simple sets and costumes make the piece ideally suitable for School or Youth Theatre.
