Tom - a story of Tom Jones

Work:: Tom - a story of Tom Jones (S1824761095)

Step back in time to the dance halls, working men's clubs and recording studios of the '60s where the legend of Tom Jones was born: a Valleys boy with a heart-stopping voice who dreamed of making the big time, no matter what it took. This inspirational story of self-belief and determination is performed live on stage by a phenomenal cast of actors and musicians, celebrating an ordinary man with an extraordinary talent who became a superstar on a world stage. Featuring hits of the era including Ghost Riders in the Sky, Spanish Harlem and Lucille, we track Tom's climb to stardom. Ending with some the hits that made him one of the most charismatic stars of the day: It's Not Unusual, Delilah, Green, Green Grass of Home, What's New Pussycat and more.

Reviews

Shirley: 10Mar16:
Really enjoyed this production, brought back a lot of happy memories for probably all the people in the audience. After all Tom Jones is a one off star, but it was a treat to see and hear actors who gave a lovely afternoon's entertainment.

B John: 08Mar16:
Enjoyed this performance, but the ending was too abrupt, we were all surprised when it finished, could have had some narration towards the end of the performance.
