Alan Plater's award winning show, Blonde Bombshells of 1943 is a warm, witty musical play filled with glorious, live swing band performances of 1940's classics, and it's coming to town as it takes to the Festival Theatre stage in Malvern from 4th June.
The Blonde Bombshells, the most glamorous all-girl swing band in the North, loses members every time it plays a GI camp. Now there's an important BBC job in the offing and Betty needs to find new musicians - fast. Among those drafted are naïve schoolgirl Liz, who plays a mean clarinet; Miranda, an upper-crust saxophonist; singing nun Lily - and Patrick, a male drummer prepared to don a frock in order to avoid a drafting. With her motley line-up complete, Betty and her band prepare to dodge Hitler's bombs and make the dangerous journey to a secret BBC recording - and potential fame and fortune.
To win tickets to the opening night - see the Worcester News on Tues 22 May.
