One Man’s Story is the transatlantic tale and true love story of “Bongo” Eddie Folk.
Merseyside charity Genie In The Gutter is celebrating its tenth anniversary by taking over the Philharmonic Hall on September 7, as they produce their first major musical theatre production, with a special live set from Kid Creole and the Coconuts.
One Man’s Story tells the story of “Bongo”, a world-renowned musician who grew up in New York and performed with the likes of Al Green, James Brown and Kid Creole before finding his home, and love, in Liverpool.
Genie In The Gutter, which supports people in recovery through creative and performance arts, will be employing clients as actors, musicians, set designers and stagehands, alongside seasoned theatre professionals.
