Roy Orbison's timeless music returns to Skegness as Barry Steele brings acclaimed theatre show to the Embassy
Fans of Roy Orbison are in for a treat when Barry Steele's Roy Orbison Story – The Platinum Years returns to the Embassy Theatre in Skegness on August 21.
Barry has spent more than three decades performing the music of Roy Orbison and has earned a reputation as one of the UK's leading interpreters of the legendary singer's work.
His theatre production has toured extensively across the UK, performing in some of the country's most prestigious venues and attracting audiences who simply love great live music.
"We always enjoy coming back to Skegness," says Barry. "The Embassy has a fantastic atmosphere, and the audiences are incredibly welcoming. Roy's songs have stood the test of time, and it's wonderful to see people of all ages singing along."
The production celebrates more than 70 years of Roy Orbison's unforgettable music, featuring classics including Only the Lonely, Crying, In Dreams, Blue Bayou, You Got It and the worldwide hit Oh, Pretty Woman.
The evening also includes a tribute to The Traveling Wilburys, with music from George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty and Roy Orbison, performed by Barry and his outstanding live band.
The show travels with its own experienced technical crew, delivering a full theatre experience with professional sound, lighting and stunning visuals to complement the music.
"It's never about trying to imitate Roy," Barry explains. "It's about celebrating his incredible catalogue of songs and sharing the emotion behind the music. Seeing audiences leave with smiles on their faces is what makes it all worthwhile."
The Skegness performance promises an evening filled with nostalgia, memorable songs and exceptional live entertainment.
