For the first time all the hits, attitude and fashion of the Punk and New Wave era are brought to the stage by this incredibly talented cast of musicians, singers and dancers that will take you on a rollercoaster ride you will never forget.
Not many musical explosions define a generation and change music forever. There was Rock and Roll in 1956, Beatlemania in 1963, Flower Power in 1967, The birth of Rock in 1970 and then there was… Punk and New Wave.
For the first time all the hits, attitude and fashion are brought to the stage by this incredibly talented cast of musicians, singers and dancers that will take you on a rollercoaster ride you will never forget.
Kevin Kennedy, best known for his role as Curly Watts in Coronation Street and his stage career including We Will Rock You and Rock of Ages on the West End, will be lending his extraordinary talents as narrator of the show.
Pretty Vacant – The Story of Punk and New Wave is THE stage show not to be missed.
📍 Venue Description: **Dominion Theatre**
---------------------
**The Dominion Theatre** is a 2,069-seat West End theatre located in the heart of the West End. With a long and varied history as both a cinema and a home of live performance, the Dominion Theatre has been entertaining audiences since 1929.
### **About the Dominion Theatre**
Located at the intersection of Charing Cross Road, Oxford Street and Tottenham Court Road, the Dominion Theatre’s excellent transport links, and world-class entertainment, has enabled the almost-100 year old venue to thrive.
### **The History of the Dominion Theatre**
The first major use of The Dominion Theatre as a live venue came when the _Judy Garland Show_ ran from Wednesday 16 October to Saturday 16 November 1957. Before this, the building had predominantly been used as a cinema, until the blitz put an end to the screenings.
Samuel Goldwyn had patiently waited more than three years to open _Porgy and Bess_ here but _South Pacific’s_ success did not rub off on it. It was _The Sound of Music_ (29 March 1965 to 29 June 1968) that confirmed The Dominion Theatre’s pull as a home of musicals.
Since the early 1990s The Dominion Theatre has played host to David Ian and Paul Nicholas' new production of _Grease_, _Scrooge: The Musical_, Matthew Bourne's _Swan Lake_, Disney's _Beauty and the Beast_, and _Notre Dame de Paris_ among others.
In 2002, the hit stage musical _We Will Rock You_, based on the songs of Queen, created by Queen guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor together with British comedian Ben Elton opened. The show was the longest running musical ever to play at The Dominion Theatre.
