Christmas came early with the launch of the adult comedy Dreaming of a Barry White Christmas coming to Liverpool’s Albert Dock in December.
The show played EchoTwo @ Liverpool’s Echo Arena for five nights last Christmas and now has an extended three-week run in the intimate surroundings of the Arena’s sister venue, The Auditorium, from December 15.
It is the first penned Christmas show from Liverpool playwright Dave Kirby, whose shows include Lost Soul, Council Depot Blues, Reds and Blues and Brick up the Mersey Tunnels.
The show will continue with its 2013 cast which starred home grown talent: Andrew Schofield (Brick Up The Mersey Tunnels, Lost Soul, Reds and Blues, Blood Brothers), who is due to star in the ITV1 drama Cilla, Alan Stocks (Reds and Blues, Scouse Pacific, Little Scouse on the Prairie) and Paul Duckworth (Reds and Blues, Scouse Pacific, Slappers and Slapheads), both regular names at the new Everyman Theatre since its re-opening, Lenny Wood (Lost Soul, Night Collar, Nightmare on Lime Street) and Gillian Hardie and Keddy Sutton (Scottie Road the Musical) who have just been voted amongst the top ten best shows at Edinburgh Festival.
