A new Musical Comedy not to miss, with the hilarious and star award winning Catherine Tate.
Set in Las Vegas in 1952, based on true events, Miss Atomic Bomb is the story of a Utah farm girl who turns her life around by travelling to Vegas and entering the Miss Atomic Bomb beauty contest. It was a time of optimism, and every mushroom cloud that rose over the Nevada desert was reassurance that atomic power was the key to “a big bright beautiful tomorrow.”
Farm girl Candy’s (Florence Andrews) sheep have mysteriously died, her fashionista friend Myrna (Catherine Tate) is designing clothes for pigs, young soldier Joey (Dean John-Wilson) has deserted the army, and his hapless hotel manager brother Lou (Simon Lipkin) desperately needs an atomic gimmick. In a city controlled by the military and the mob, time is running out for our four friends.
Co-directed by the Olivier Award-winning choreographer Bill Deamer (Top Hat) and Adam Long (The Complete Works of William Shakespeare Abridged).
Miss Atomic Bomb stars award winning star of TV and theatre, Catherine Tate, who is reunited with West End star Simon Lipkin following their critical and audience success in Sondheim’s Assassins at the Menier Chocolate Factory.
They are joined by Dean John Wilson who will take the lead role in Disney’s Aladdin this Summer, Daniel Boys
