Summer Holiday tells the story of Don and his fellow London Transport mechanics as they journey together in a red double decker bus through Paris, the Alps, Italy and Greece. Along the way they pick up a girl singing group and a young American pop star who is on the run from her domineering mother. The hit filled musical features many of the biggest songs from the Sixties including In The Country, Summer Holiday, Travellin’ Light, Bachelor Boy, Move It, Living Doll, The Young Ones and On The Beach.

The role of Jerry, the long suffering agent, will be played by Bobby Crush, famous for 45 years primarily as a pianist but also as a songwriter, actor, broadcaster and television presenter. Bobby rose to fame after six winning appearances on Opportunity Knocks and has regularly performed in the West End .

Sophie Matthew will play runaway American singer Barbara with Taryn Sudding taking on the role of Stella, her controlling fame-hungry mother.
