A new musical, Carnaby Street, comes to Manchester Opera House May 20-25.
Aaron Sidwell (Eastenders), Verity Rushworth (Emmerdale) and Matthew Wycliffe (Jersey Boys) lead the cast of a show set against the backdrop of London’s West End in the 60s—its clubs, fashions and characters—and hits from the time.
Universal Music will be releasing a companion compilation album which will also include recordings of original music used in the show.
The show is directed by Bob Tomson, whose West End credits include Blood Brothers and Dreamcoats and Petticoats, and designed by Matthew Wright (La Cage aux Folles, Evita).
