A biographical story of songwriter Lionel Bart. The production will mark the 25th anniversary of Lionel Bart’s death and feature West End star John Barr (Les Misérable, Evita, Sweeney Todd).
Lionel Bart wrote a repertoire of huge global chart hits, musicals, film scores and one of the biggest musicals of all time: Oliver!.
In the 1960s, Lionel Bart was earning in a minute what the average person earned in a week. He was the toast of the West End and a pop sensation, writing hit after hit, before being declared bankrupt in 1972.
It’s a Fine Life! is the dramatic story of Bart’s rise and fall.
