Summer Dreaming is a fully interactive extravaganza featuring authentic costumes and iconic dance moves, so find your inner teddy boy or girl, and sing along.

Paul Spicer, the show’s director, said: “There’s nothing better than being able to sit back and immerse yourself in the music that you love, and it’s perfection when the performers are world class.

“We specialise in what we call experience theatre.

“We don’t want our audience to just sit and watch.

“We want them completely involved in the action, and so we design our productions very carefully, keeping this in mind.

“We’re celebrating iconic music from movies, musicals and iconic artists of the 50’s and 60’s, performed live on stage, fully choreographed, steeped in nostalgia.

“It’s the audience who are the most important people in the room, and we take them on an incredible journey.”

Tickets for the Lincoln Theatre Royal date cost £20 or £18 for concessions.
