The Simon & Garfunkel Story
Simon en Garfunkel begonnen bescheiden, in de jaren 50 als het rock ’n’ roll-duo Tom & Jerry. In de jaren 60 kwamen de grote successen. The Simon & Garfunkel Story gaat langs alle songs en verhalen die hen vormden, de dramatische breuk en hun afzonderlijke solocarrières. Het eindigt met een prachtig eerbetoon aan het legendarische Central Park reünieconcert uit 1981.
De regie is in handen van Dean Elliott. Eerder vertolkte hij de hoofdrol in The Buddy Holly Story, de met een Olivier Award genomineerde West-End-musical.
