Yorksheather Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 As Gareth has said in the York Press interview , he is playing the part of Dean, so I thought I would look him up . The plot is about two lovers called Debs and Roddy. Roddy has a dream to be a rock star. They have been together for five years, as have their best friends Terry and Trish. There is a fancy dress dance contest at their local disco 'Boogie Nights', and Roddy promises he will go with Debs. Debs then reveals to Trish that she is pregnant with Roddy's baby. Roddy's dad, Eamon, an Elvis-crazy guy, tells Roddy to treat Debs better and to get a job. But Roddy has his head too far up in the clouds to notice that he is hurting anyone. Days later, she is waiting for Roddy to pick her up from shopping. He doesn't, but she is met by Dean, the DJ at Boogie Nights. He tells Debs that Roddy is not good enough for her, and that she should go out with himself. They kiss. Meanwhile, Roddy is met by Lorraine, the singer in the disco's band, and her boyfriend Spencer (also a singer). They are rowing, and he storms off. Lorraine and Roddy then cheat together on their partners. Lorraine tells Roddy that she is going to enter the dance contest with him. At the contest, Roddy's lovers meet and they realise what is going on. Debs dumps Roddy. She then has a miscarriage. When Elvis dies Eamon is left heart broken, when Roddy complains Eamon tries to put everything in perspective, Roddy uses a picture of what he thinks is Elvis but when he looks is his deceased mother. Eamon throws Roddy out and forgets about Roddy. Weeks later, Terry comes over to Roddy's and tells him that Debs is seeing Dean. Roddy finally accepts that their relationship is over. He goes over to Debs' and she tells him about the baby. Spencer gives Roddy the job of singer in his band. He runs to tell Debs the news, but she tells him some news first—she and Dean are engaged. Eamon tells Spencer he wants to make up with Roddy but if he says sorry. Terry is best man at their wedding; Roddy is the singer. When Spencer asks for song requests, Roddy makes a request to come home. Roddy and Eamon patch things up. Everyone got what they wanted Eamon was friends with Roddy, Dean got Debs, Debs got someone to trust and Roddy was a singer. But Roddy doubts that he really wanted this dream, if he had the choice would he have chosen Debs? Roddy - Hero of the story, dreaming of a life as a rock star Debs - Roddy's girl friend Terry - A garage mechanic Trish - Debs' friend and Terry's girlfriend Eamon - Roddy's father Dean - DJ at the club Spencer - front man for the resident band Lorraine - Singer in the local band and Spencer's girlfriend Songs on this link http://www.guidetomusicaltheatre.com/shows_b/boogieNights.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maria_1981 Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 Thanks for that Chris how you and Heather managing to find these venues out? as I googled it and all I keep getting is the 2 02 dates originally mentioned, i'm guessing you have to randomly check different actual venue's.

eternal Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 Maria I just googled Croydon theatres and looked at next Feb/March/April. Looks like this could be pretty hectic if it is going to be one night per town/theatre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val4Gareth Posted August 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 Just looked on that link Chris and it says there is a performance of Boogie Nights in November as well as the Boogie Nights 70's musical in March next year. I'm a bit confused as to whether there are two different shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowdrop Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 The Guardian seems to be running ticket offers for the O2 and Blackburn, which is a bit of an odd combination, but perhaps it will be added to! http://www.guardiant...nights-tickets/ It lists three dates for Blackburn, one being December this year, so not quite sure what that is about, lol. Edits: Val, it looks like we are barking up the same tree. Edits again: those dates are also on ticketmaster - it does appear to be a different production by the same name.

maria_1981 Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 Yeah when I googled it looked like there was some kind of concert for Boogie nights going on this year, I looked up Manchester just now for this one and there's nothing for this so far, I done what you told me you done Chris when you looked up Croyden.

Waiting for Thursday when we get news of the venues. Also only just found out Chico and Andy Abrahams are in Boogie Nights. I like Chico so am pleased about that.
