Anyone seen Dreamboats and Petticoats stage show

[askyourgran]

Some friends have asked us to join them (in a box no less) at the Bradford Alhambra next month. We don't usually go to theatres but we said we'd go Mr A is very reluctant. I believe it's 60's music, that's why MrA is going. Have we any theatre goers here. What have you enjoyed?

Not seen it ayg but I have 3 Dreamboats and Petticoats CD's.............oh the memories listening to Lipstick on Your Collar and Under the Boardwalk...........

[askyourgran]

Didn't know it was so popular to have CD's. Hope it's good I'll get him the CD's for Christmas. lol

It will be a good nosalgia fest - if he likes the music of the era, he will enjoy the show.

Take him to see 'Jersey Boys' - awesome!

When you say box......I hope you don't mean a coffin

[askyourgran]

Mrs O I think I'll be like the Queen at the Royal Command Performance, never been in a box before, but being the Bradford Alhambra you never know! lol. I've heard that Jersey Boys is good, andy I seem to remember reading that it was someones life story. I haven't seen it advertised as showing anywhere in our area. If it turns out to be enjoyable it may be something we'll do again.

The Alhambra is a beautiful theatre - I take the kids to the National Museum of Film, Tv etc every year and always stand and admire the theatre

Unfortunately I had a traumatic experience in that theatre as a child - I was taken to Mike & Bernie Winters in panto.

[Bobbisox]

we went last year, you will be up dancing in the aisles...honestly!

[andy-hughes]

You're right - Jersey Boys is the story of Frankie Vali and The Four Seasons, and it fabulous!

It is only in london at the moment - hopefully it will tour, but it's worth the trip down if you can get to see it.

[Bobbisox]

if I knew where you lived ayg I would happily send you all 3 CDs from the show..fantastica!!

[Bobbisox]

The gut from Emerdale took the lead role...Scott?

[askyourgran]

Thanks I'm looking forward to it more now, and I'll tell his nibs.
Mrs O I think Mike & Bernie would scar a child for life, was Snorbitz on as well or was the dog a later addition?

[Bobbisox]

the gut from Emerdale...Oh Dear
The guy...PMSL

[askyourgran]

It's surprising redhelen, my daughter was born in 1970 and she likes the music of the 50's and 60's too, I couldn't believe when she had the Beatles and a 60's cds in her car.
Bobbie the couple we are going with said they booked the box so that we can dance, they seem to know what to expect. I don't watch Emmerdale but I think I know who Scott is.

[Bobbisox]

he was the guy who was wrongly accused of rape by a young girl while he was holiday, ruining his tv career,,glad he has come back with such vigour ayg

[askyourgran]

Yes I remember him bobbie, nice looking guy (no gut) shame about his tv career.

[mrs_overall]

Yes, the dog was there as well.....horrible slobbery thing

[Bobbisox]

to be fair to Emerdale I think they had to let him go pending a trial but the little weasel(the girl) withdrew such allegations at the 11th hour
