Fat Sam and Dandy Dan are set to ‘splurge’ custard pies and cash at Hull New Theatre when Bugsy Malone bursts onto the stage later this year.
Based on Alan Parker’s world-famous movie, which launched the careers of Jodie Foster and Scott Baio, this spectacular theatrical experience heads to the venue during half-term from 25 – 29 October, 2022, as part of its very first tour.
Packed with instantly recognisable songs from Oscar winner Paul Williams, including My Name is Tallulah, So You Wanna Be A Boxer, You Give a Little Love and Fat Sam’s Grand Slam, Bugsy Malone is a joyously uplifting masterclass of musical comedy.
This family production is set in New York during the prohibition era, when the Big Apple is full of mobsters, showgirls, and dreamers. Rival gangster bosses Fat Sam and Dandy Dan are at loggerheads. The custard pies are flying, and Dandy Dan’s 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?
Find out this October half-term at Hull New Theatre.
