Following its success on tour and the West End, new musical Dreamboats
and Petticoats
returns to Manchester for a  third visit.

The
musical, written by Marks and Gran, the team behind Goodnight
Sweetheart
, Birds Of A Feather and Shine On Harvey Moon,
takes you back to a time when each passing week brought another classic track.
The show features songs from Roy Orbison, The Shadows, Eddie Cochran, Billy
Fury, Chuck Berry and many more and is based on the successful compilation albums of the same name.

This
1961 set show has toured the UK and hit the West End from 29 July
to 31 October at the Savoy Theatre, prior to the opening of hit
Broadway transfer Legally Blonde. It is currently at the Playhouse in London.

This new musical features the hits “Lets Dance”, “To Know Him Is To Love
Him”, “Shaking All Over” and many more  from music’s golden era.

Dreamboats and Petticoats runs at the Palace Theatre in Manchester from 14 – 19 June.
