Everybody’s Talking About Jamie at The Lowry….Again!
Hit musical returns to Salford – Wednesday 7th to Saturday 17th September 2023
Following a record-breaking three-year West End residency, sold-out UK & Ireland Tour and Amazon studios award-winning film, the smash-hit and critically acclaimed musical Everybody’s Talking About Jamie RETURNS to The Lowry, Salford, from Wednesday 7th to Saturday 17th September 2023.
Jamie New is sixteen and lives on a council estate in Sheffield. Jamie doesn’t quite fit in. Jamie is terrified about the future. Jamie is going to be a sensation. Supported by his brilliant loving mum and surrounded by his friends, Jamie overcomes prejudice, beats the bullies and steps out of the darkness, into the spotlight.
This ‘Funny, outrageous, touching’ (Daily Telegraph), musical sensation is to be experienced by all the family and not to be missed!
With an original score of catchy pop tunes that will ‘blow the roof of the Theatre’ (Mail on Sunday) by lead singer-songwriter of The Feeling, Dan Gillespie Sells and writer Tom MacRae (Doctor Who), this ‘Sparking coming-of-age musical’ (The Times) will have everybody talking about Jamie for years to come.
Sixteen: the edge of possibility. Time to make your dreams come true.
Casting to be announced.
Steve Cowton, Head of Theatres at The Lowry, said: “Everybody’s Talking About Jamie was one of the first shows we presented when we emerged from Lockdown and it was wonderful to see audiences returning and having such a brilliant time. This is very much a story of our time – a show that speaks about diversity, inclusivity and understanding. It’s also a great night out for all ages – and I’m absolutely delighted that following sell out performances, we will be welcoming the show back to The Lowry.”
