Bill Kenwright has announced plans for a Dreamboats and Petticoats sequel. The new musical, entitled Dreamboats and Miniskirts, will embark on a UK Tour later this year.
Dreamboats and Miniskirts will begin performances at the Theatre Royal Windsor on Monday 4th August 2014 and tour until January 2015. The sequel will reveal what happened to Bobby & Laura and Norman & Sue after Dreamboats and Petticoats ended.
It's 1963, and the world is changing. Bobby and Laura's single 'Dreamboats and Petticoats' has not taken off. Norman and Sue have settled down to non-marital bliss - and a baby! But Ray and Donna seem blissfully happy...
The advent of the Beatles and the Merseyside sound is inspirational. But will it inspire Bobby and Laura to have one more shot at stardom - Norman to "get off the drains" and find that singing voice he has longed for, and Ray to realise his ambition and manage a really top pop act!?
According to promotional material, the new musical will feature the "same wit, charm, and great songs as Dreamboats and Petticoats". Many of the songs are from the next period in pop history, featuring 60s rock ‘n’ roll hits. A Dreamboats and Miniskirts album will also be released in summer 2014.
Casting and creative team to be announced. Brian May recently revealed plans for a We Will Rock You sequel called The Show Must Go On.
