Sunny Afternoon extends run
SUNNY Afternoon, the musical exploring the rise to stardom of The Kinks, has once again extended its booking period at the Harold Pinter Theatre, this time until October 24, 2015.
The Kinks exploded onto the 60’s music scene with a raw, energetic new sound that rocked a nation. But how did that happen, where exactly did they come from and what happened next?
Set against the back-drop of a Britain caught mid-swing between the conservative 50s and riotous 60s, Sunny Afternoon explores the euphoric highs and agonising lows of one of Britain’s most iconic bands and the irresistible music that influenced generations.
Sunny Afternoon features many of the bands hits, including You Really Got Me, Waterloo Sunset, Dedicated Follower of Fashion, All Day and All of the Night, Lola, Sunny Afternoon and many more.
The cast is currently led by John Dagleish (as Ray Davies), George Maguire (Dave Davies), Adam Sopp (Mick Avory) and Ned Derrington (Pete Quaife).
Sunny Afternoon has music and lyrics by Ray Davies, a new book by Joe Penhall and direction by Edward Hall.
