Set in 1961, Dreamboats and Petticoats is the story of Bobby and Norman, two young, talented musicians competing in a national song writing competition. The atmosphere is emotionally charged, especially since they’re also vying for the attention of the lovely Sue. Bobby, however, finds out that bashful Laura is great at playing the piano, and rock ‘n’ roll celebrity and love beckon.
The million-selling blockbuster albums Dreamboats and Petticoats One, Two and Three inspired this energetic musical, and the smash hit West End sensation features many of the rock ‘n’ roll era’s greatest hits. The Dreamboats and Petticoats series’ first three albums’ astounding success sent a clear message when they spent a number of weeks at the top of the charts and sold more than two million copies, that the British public wanted more than to just listen to nostalgic music, it would love to see it, too.
Therefore, the musical Dreamboats and Petticoats was created in February 2009, and received widespread acclaim from audiences and rave reviews. Since then, more than one million people have experienced the enchantment of an evening of unsullied hedonistic love for a bygone era of innocence, when rock ‘n’ roll and love were young.
