The product of a conversation between Bill Kenwright and Tommy Steele, The Glenn Miller Story looks at the life and career of one of the most well-known musicians of the 1930s and 1940s, the Iowa-born Glenn Miller. Back in those days, the soothing sound of the music; the logical and catchy lyrics; and, of course, the strong vocal skills and unique voice were vital elements to the success of both a song and an artist. Glenn Miller's work had this in spades, and so this show celebrates that, with long-time theatre and entertainment performer Tommy Steele cast in the role of Miller.
It is a family-friendly show, but there is no doubt that the target audience consists of people in their 50s, 60s and older, who will either be familiar with Miller's music, or who will have fond memories of Steele in his heyday, and thus will enjoy the opportunity to see him perform again.
