Previous shows
ALL THOSE ON BOARD made a splash on 30th May - 8th June 2024 in seven different northern venues from the east coast to the west. The story of a group of determined swimmers, desperate to restore their seaside town's beautiful art deco lido to its former glory, was extremely well received by all who came to see it.
LET ME BE THE ONE made its debut in Knaresborough, Harrogate on Oct 24th 2019. The story of what Eurovision super fans will do to get the UK back on track at the song contest played for three shows in the north followed by four in London.
THE PECKING ORDER made its debut on Nov 21st 2018. The story followed a city family moving to a rural farming community and was performed in four different venues in North Yorshire
GOING GREY was the first musical to be undertaken by Drip Drop Theatre. Across its three production runs in 2012 and 2013, it was performed for a total of fifteen nights. The story followed a cafe owner coming to terms with loss, new found love and a whole lot more.
The less famous Eurovision film
LET ME BE THE ONE, a musical about two men's determination to get the UK back on track at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2020, had its world premiere on 24th Oct 2019. At the time of production, who knew that there wouldn't actually be a Eurovision in 2020?!
The show received sponsorship from Rotterdam Festivals for a second production run in May 2021 during Eurovision week in the host city, Rotterdam. Due to travel restrictions, the live show was reworked into an amateur film version in time for Eurovision week.
Whilst it may not have received quite the viewing figures of Eurovision Fire Saga, it will definitely resonate with fans of the contest. See it for yourself:
