Amanda Whittington & John Cheetham

Large Mixed Cast
Every schoolgirl in town is desperate to see the show but 15 year old Shirley Sutton has a very personal reason for wanting to meet her idol, John Lennon
This character-led play explores the styles, sounds and social mores of the Sixties. Although set in Mansfield in Nottinghamshire, it could easily be adapted to the many British towns in which The Beatles performed
Twist & Shout is the first in a trilogy of plays featuring the character Shirley Sutton. Her story continues in Runaway Girl & Shirley's Song but each of the plays stands alone and can be performed in isolation
