The Drifters play their classic rock and roll hits live on stage at the Albany Theatre in Coventry.
The Drifters are playing the Albany Theatre on Sunday 15 November, part of their current UK tour. It's a double-bill day, with a 3:00pm matinee and a 7:30pm evening performance, so you can pick whichever fits your Sunday best. If you can't make that one, they're staying on for a second night at the same venue on Wednesday 18 November.
The set is built around the classic hits the group made their name on, including 'Saturday Night at the Movies', 'Under the Boardwalk' and 'Kissin' In The Back Row'. It's the sound that put them on the map, and that's what they're bringing to the stage.
There's a fair bit of history behind the name. The group has been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, performed for the President of the United States, and was listed among the Greatest Artists of All Time by Rolling Stone. These days they're under the guidance of Tina Treadwell, daughter of the group's original founders George and Faye Treadwell, and they've seen a resurgence in recent years that's taken them into arena shows and a date at the Royal Albert Hall in London — a first in the group's career.

The show runs an hour and fifty minutes and is suitable for all ages, so it works as a family outing as much as a night out. Tickets are £32.00 plus a £1.50 order fee, and both the matinee and evening shows are at the Albany Theatre's Main Auditorium on Albany Road, Coventry, CV5 6JQ.
