That'll Be The Day tickets and regional UK dates

That'll Be The Day is a live variety show combining musical performances and comedy sketches drawn from popular music spanning the 1950s to the 1980s. The current production is described as brand-new, with a running time of two hours and 55 minutes.

What the show involves

Rather than concentrating on a single artist or era, the show moves across rock 'n' roll and pop from four successive decades, mixing live music with comedy sketches throughout. The sources describe it as a tribute to the songs and artists that shaped those generations.

Audience considerations

An age guidance of 12 and over applies at all listed venues owing to occasional mild adult humour. Check the venue’s admission terms when booking. The running time of two hours and 55 minutes is relatively long, which may be worth considering for some audience members.
