Hit musical coming to Venue Cymru
EVERYBODY’S Talking About Jamie, the smash-hit and critically acclaimed feelgood West End musical is coming to Venue Cymru, Llandudno as part of its UK tour next year.
Supported by his brilliant loving mum and surrounded by his friends, Jamie overcomes prejudice, beats the bullies and steps out of the darkness, into the spotlight.
With catchy songs by lead singer-songwriter of The Feeling, Dan Gillespie Sells, and book and lyrics by writer Tom MacRae, this funny, fabulous, feel-good, musical sensation has been wowing audiences and critics alike.
It runs from Tuesday May 5 to Saturday May 9, 2020.
Director Jonathan Butterell saw the Firecracker documentary film ‘Jamie: Drag Queen at 16,’ the true story of Jamie Campbell and his mother, Margaret.
This inspired him to create this musical which is a dramatised portrayal of a period in Jamie’s life but is not a faithful account. Certain events and characters have been fictionalised.
As well as receiving five-star reviews, Everybody’s Talking About Jamie has won eight major theatre awards, including the UK Theatre and WhatsOnStage Awards for Best New Musical and the Attitude Culture Award 2017, and was nominated for five Olivier Awards.
Most recently the show won Best Original Cast Recording at the 2019 WhatsOnStage Awards.
The Tuesday to Saturday evening performances are at 7.30. Wednesday and Saturday matinees are at 2.30pm.
Tickets: £31.50 - £49.
