We can't wait to catch up with our mates at Glen Street Theatre this season for a show that’s set to bring the house down – the incredible story of music legend Roy Orbison! With those toe-tapping hits, iconic vocals and one very colourful life, this show promises to deliver an unforgettable afternoon of nostalgia, rhythm and pure entertainment.
Get ready to step into the world of Roy Orbison in a tribute that brings his music and legacy to life with passion and authenticity. From his rise to fame in the 1960s to his legendary comeback in the 1980s, Roy’s voice remained unmatched, filled with emotion, heartache and soul. His songs tell stories of love, loss and longing, all delivered with a simplicity and power that made him one of a kind.
Mark Shelley takes on the role of Roy, and with his incredible vocal range and tone, there’s no one better to do justice to Orbison’s timeless hits. Mark captures the charisma and artistry that made Roy an icon, bringing every note to life. Backed by a top-tier seven-piece live band featuring some of the best musicians in the business, this show is as close as it gets to stepping back in time.
“I am both a massive fan and admirer of Roy’s immense talent, singing and song-writing ability. There has been no one like him before or since. It is an absolute privilege to perform his songs, share stories and take the audience on a wonderful journey. His music is timeless,” says Mark.
Sing along to all the classics like Only the Lonely, Running Scared, Sweet Dream Baby, Candy Man, Blue Bayou, In Dreams, You Got It, Crying, Workin’ for the Man, Penny Arcade, Pretty Woman… and many more.
Roy’s life was filled with incredible highs and heartbreaking lows, but his late-‘80s comeback, marked by his legendary Black & White Night concert, his stunning Mystery Girl album and his time with supergroup The Traveling Wilburys, was the perfect final chapter for a true music genius.
