High energy, high kicking and gloriously glamorous, Crazy For You is the ultimate feel-good musical with a fabulous score from the Gershwin brothers’ songbook.
Mistaken identities, plot twists, heartbreak, happiness and a wealth of memorable tunes, including I Got Rhythm, They Can’t Take That Away From Me, Nice Work If You Can Get It and Embraceable You, all feature in this exhilarating celebration of the great Broadway musicals.
Television and theatre performer Claire Sweeney has been preparing to take on the role of Irene Roth alongside Casualty and Strictly Come Dancing star Tom Chambers and Olivier Award nominee Charlotte Wakefield. Claire said: “I’m really looking forward to visiting Aberdeen and exploring what it has to offer whilst I’m there.”
This UK touring show is directed by The Watermill’s Paul Hart, and has musical arrangements by Catherine Jayes. It is choreographed by Nathan M. Wright and is designed by Diego Pitarch. Crazy For You was originally produced on Broadway by Roger Horchow and Elizabeth Williams with the original Broadway choreography by Susan Stroman.
Crazy For You visits Aberdeen’s HM Theatre, running until March 31. See www.aberdeenperformingarts.com/events/crazy-for-you-397917
