Musical dedicated to the Small Faces at the Theatre Royal, in Bury St Edmunds
All or Nothing, the Small Faces musical sensation, tours the UK from September 2017 on its third major outing.
The show, which opened to critical acclaim and nightly standing ovations at the Vaults Theatre, in London, in March 2016, before heading out on the first of two UK tours, announced recently that total ticket sales have topped over £1 million.
The third autumn tour begins in September and is at Theatre Royal, in Bury St Edmunds from Thursday to Saturday, September 21 to 23.
In 1964, a new phenomenon exploded onto the dingy British streets. It was the essence of all that was cool. It was Mod. Mods stuck two fingers up at the class-ridden society and its dull redundant culture. They were working-class free spirits who rode sexy streamlined Italian Vespas or Lambrettas.
Written and directed by the award-winning actress Carol Harrison, All or Nothing tells the electrifying yet bittersweet tale of Kenney Jones, Ian McLagan, Ronnie Lane and Steve Marriott; four charismatic young kids from East London with humour, attitude, passion and above all talent. They became the Small Faces and were rocketed into the big time, only to discover the path to fantastic success is paved with exploitation, betrayal and ultimately tragedy.
The Small Faces encapsulated all that is Mod, a unique blend of taste and testosterone, neat, clothes obsessed and street-wise. But these cult sophisticates shared another passion, their dedication to Rhythm ‘n’ Blues. This quintessentially British ‘Mod’ Musical celebrates the unique sound of the iconic ‘60s Mod band, The Small Faces.
Featuring an arsenal of brilliant hits like Whatcha Gonna Do About It, Lazy Sunday, Tin Soldier, Sha La La La Lee, Itchycoo Park and of course All Or Nothing.
