Bugsy Malone
Organised by : Chichester Festival Theatre
Alan Parkers world-famous movie becomes a spectacular theatrical experience in this revival of the universally acclaimed Lyric Hammersmith Theatre production, directed by Sean Holmes. Packed with instantly recognisable songs from Oscar winner Paul Williams including My Name is Tallulah, You Give A Little Love and Fat Sams Grand Slam, Bugsy Malone is a joyously uplifting masterclass of musical comedy.
Prohibition era, New York. A city full of mobsters,
showgirls and dreamers. Rival gangster bosses Fat Sam and Dandy Dan are at
loggerheads. The custard pies are flying and Dandy Dans gang has gotten the
upper hand since obtaining the new-fangled splurge gun. Now, Fat Sam and his
bumbling buffoons are in real trouble! Enter Bugsy Malone, a penniless
one-time boxer and all-round nice guy. All Bugsy really wants to do is spend
time with his new love, Blousey, but will he be able to resist seductive songstress
Tallulah and stay out of trouble long enough to help Fat Sam to defend his
business...?
