Athlone Musical Society are busy dusting down their blue suede shoes as they prepare to once again take to the musical stage in March 2022 with their production of 'All Shook Up'.
As the curtain fell on the Society’s award-winning production of 'Joseph and his amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat' in 2020, little did anyone know that the curtain was to remain down for so long.
The Society has chosen a feel-good musical for its much-anticipated return to stage. Elvis Presley’s hits permeate this mad-cap musical comedy based on Shakespeare’s 'Twelfth Night', overflowing with rock ‘n roll, gospel, romance and mistaken identities.
'All Shook Up' tells the story of a small-town girl with big dreams and the motorcycle-riding roustabout she falls for. Among the many hits that will have you jumping out of your blue suede shoes are, 'Love Me Tender', 'Heartbreak Hotel', 'Hound Dog' and 'It’s Now or Never'. All Shook Up is guaranteed to knock your socks off!
The Society is thrilled to announce this years production team. Following their success at the AIMS awards last year, Director, Alfie Kilduff, and Musical Director, Ger Madden, are back on board. Jay Molyneux is joining the Society this year to undertake the mammoth task of choreographing this whopper of a dance show!
Auditions for the musical will take place at The Bounty, Athlone this Friday, November 5, from 6.30pm.
Please see the Athlone Musical Society facebook page for more details, and to complete the registration form.
Shake rattle or roll your way down to auditions, Athlone Musical Society can’t wait to meet you!
