Barry Steel In The Roy Orbison Story Sheffield City Hall Friday 31 October 2021

[Arena Mole 16]

 

The one and only Barry Steele is set to put the rock back into ‘The Big O’ as he takes to the stage to celebrate the musical legacy of The Big O and his friends in the West End production of ‘The Roy Orbison Story’.
 

Backed by a sensational band the production presents all the classic hits alongside original material written but never sung by Roy Orbison as well as showcasing elements of the symphonic orchestration first heard on the recently released Albums.

This top-class musical extravaganza also features a stunningly brilliant finale as the whole cast comes together to pay homage to the original supergroup ‘The Traveling Wilburys.’

[Arena Mole 16]

In 1963 Roy Orbison performed for the first time, at The Adelphi in Slough - in December 2018 The Roy Orbison Story performed at The Adelphi Theatre in London’s West End. In 1988 Roy Orbison joined ‘The Traveling Wilburys’ - The Roy Orbison Story creates an incredible finale to the show as the whole cast comes together to celebrate the Traveling Wilburys.

 

In 2017 Roy Orbison classics were remastered by The Philharmonic orchestra! – The Roy Orbison Story proudly present their versions of these masterpieces. Roy Orbison worked with George Harrison- in The Roy Orbison Story ‘Something’ is really ‘Something,’ and ‘You got it’ will have you thinking ‘they’ve got it.

 

Chris Isaak collected many awards on behalf of The Orbison Family – he also recorded many of Roy Orbison’s songs – in The Roy Orbison Story the compliment is returned with stunning versions of Blue Hotel and Wicked Game. Roy Orbison dueted with KD Lang…the production turns it upside down and presents ‘Till the heart caves in’, which was composed by The Big O’ and recorded by KD Lang.

 

Barry Steele and a fabulous cast of musicians and singers will take you on a musical journey from The Black and White Night right through to the Traveling Wilburys and beyond - with so much more in between. They promise they’ll have you dancing in those aisles, in an evening jam packed with solid gold hits - Rock and soul with style.
