SUMMARY:Million Dollar Quartet - Barn Theatre Cirencester
DESCRIPTION:Darren Day stars in Million Dollar Quartet\nThe Barn Theatre in Cirencester has announced that Darren Day will be starring as Sam Phillips in Million Dollar Quartet this summer. \nThe show was inspired by Elvis Presley\, Johnny Cash\, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins. \nIt first played at Barn Theatre in 2022 and is returning to the stage due to overwhelming public demand. \nThe show has a book by Colin Escott and Floyd Mutrux. This production will be directed by Jonathan O’Boyle. \nFurther casting and creatives will be announced shortly. \nIt’s set on the night of 04 December 1956. The four men who walked into a recording studio in Memphis that night went on to shape rock’n’roll music\, changing the direction of popular music forever. \nMillion Dollar Quartet includes the classic songs Blue Suede Shoes\, Fever\, Walk The Line\, Hound Dog. \n \nDarren Day’s musical theatre resume is extensive\, following after winning Opportunity Knocks back in the 80s. \n“I genuinely couldn’t think of more perfect casting\, ” Barn Theatre’s CEO and Artistic Director Iwan Lewis says. \n“Sam Phillips is an iconic figure who played such a pivotal role in shaping the music industry\, and to have this role played by Darren Day\, who has himself taken on some of the most defining roles in musical theatre\, feels incredibly fitting. Our audiences at the Barn are in for a real treat.” \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Princess Sparkles - The Wardrobe Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Alt comedy scene\, writer and performer Lily Maryon\, brings her debut solo show Princess Sparkles to the Wardrobe Theatre. \nPrincess Sparkles invites audiences to step into the role of children at a birthday party whether they’re ready for it or not. Structured around familiar party favourites such as pass the parcel\, musical statues\, and improvised storytelling\, the show recreates the unpredictable energy of a children’s party while revealing a more complex story beneath the surface. \nAt its centre is Princess Sparkles\, a chaotic entertainer barely holding it together. What starts as nostalgic fun becomes a sharp character study revealing the emotional strain behind the act. \nThe show blends character comedy\, clowning\, and audience interaction. \nIt draws from Lily Maryon’s real experiences as a children’s entertainer. \nThe show uses verbatim moments from parties ranging from surreal to brutal highlighting the challenge of performing for children\, with cutting remarks like “paid to entertain me” and “out of work actor”. \n  \n

SUMMARY:The Fit Prince - Tobacco Factory Theatres
DESCRIPTION:The Fit Prince (who gets switched on the square in the frosty castle the night before (insert public holiday here))\nAwkward Productions returns to Tobacco Factory Theatres this June with their brand new show: The Fit Prince (who gets switched on the square in the frosty castle the night before (insert public holiday here)). \nThe show sees Linus Karp and Joseph Martin return to Bristol with their latest hit show – this time sending up Christmas and Hallmark holiday movies. \nPanic! In Swedonia. The King is dead and the prince next in line to the throne is unmarried – if he doesn’t find someone soon\, he must forfeit the crown! \nIn New York City\, baker Aaron Butcher is butchering his career as a family baker. Maybe a commission in the non-location-specific country of Swedonia will fix his problems… \nThe show features original music by Leland and a large digital cast including Geri Allen. \nExpect it to have all the usual features we know and love – ‘queer\, chaotic\, comedic and heartfelt’. \n  \n
