For the first time ever, all of Dolly Parton’s biggest hits are being brought together, in Here You Come Again, which comes to Milton Keynes Theatre next week.
The show has alreasdy enjoyed several successful runs across the United States, but this is its first UK tour, with performances running from Tue 19 - Sat 23 November.
This rollicking and joyful new musical is fully authorised by Dolly herself. Packed with iconic songs like Jolene, 9 to 5, Islands in the Stream, I Will Always Love You, Here You Come Again and more, this lively and touching new musical tells the story of a diehard fan whose imagined version of international icon Dolly Parton gets him through trying times.
Originally written by multi-Emmy award-winning comedy and songwriter Bruce Vilanch with Gabriel Barre (who also directs) and writer and actor Tricia Paoluccio (who co-writes and stars as Dolly). Acclaimed British TV and theatre writer Jonathan Harvey (Gimme, Gimme, Gimme and Coronation Street) provides additional material for the production's UK run.
Alongside Tricia, West End star Steven Webb (Oliver!, Book of Mormon) plays ‘Kevin’, a 40-year-old, ‘has-been-who-never-was’ comedian in the new musical, joined by Aidan Cutler (Backing Vocalist and Cover ‘Kevin’) and Charlotte Elisabeth Yorke (Backing Vocalist and Cover ‘Dolly’). The band is completed by Richard John is Musical Supervisor, Jordan Li-Smith is Musical Director, Kevin Oliver Jones plays bass, with Alex Crawford on Guitar and Ben Scott on Drums.
