Micky Salberg’s Crystal Ballroom Dance Band

by Ade Morris – The Watermill Theatre

Following the visit of The Story of a Great Lady, The Watermill Theatre returns to Margate.

It’s the early 1950’s and the world is changing fast, the Cold War meets warm hearts as Jazz makes way for Rock n’ Roll in the ear where "you’ve never had it so good" was sometimes true, sometimes not. As the Korean War rages and British conscription comes to an end The Crystal Ballroom Dance Band plays, inspired by their charismatic leader Micky Salberg. But how long will the old music last, and what will the new tunes sound like? A heartwarming, heartbreaking new musical comedy from Ade Morris exploring the moment when an era turns, then twists, on the dancefloors of Britain.

There will be a free post-show talk after the performance.
