Summer Holiday is a fun musical romp through the colourful
and sexy 60s! Four friends (played in the movie by Cliff Richard and The
Shadows) decide to spend the summer driving across Europe in a converted
double-decker bus. Along the way, they rescue a gang of girls whose car has
broken down, then discover a boy hidden on board. When the young stowaway is
revealed as a female pop star on the run from her pushy mother and
larger-than-life showbiz agent, chaos ensues and you have all the
ingredients for a lively, entertaining evening! This show is packed with all the great songs from the Cliff era, Livin' Doll, Bachelor Boy, In The Country, I Could Easily Fall in Love With You, Move It, Do You Wanna Dance, The Young Ones, On The Beach and of course, the title song, Summer Holiday! |
