A musical journey through the girl groups of the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s, presented by Express T'Dance.
Timeless comes to Stoke Rep Theatre on Friday 6 and Saturday 7 November, presented by Express T'Dance. It's a musical journey through three decades of music history, starting with the glamorous 1940s, moving through the fabulous 1950s, and ending in the sparkling 1960s.
The show focuses on the era's most iconic girl groups, and the names are the ones you'll recognise: The Andrews Sisters, The Supremes, The Shirelles, and Martha and the Vandellas. It's a whistle-stop tour of that particular sound, so you'll hear the shift from the close harmonies of the 40s through to the Motown era of the 60s. Express T'Dance describe it as a celebration of the artists who shaped music, culture and generations through their creativity, and a look at how the music evolved over those years.
On stage, that translates to a few different things. There are the songs themselves, the exquisite harmonies that defined these groups, and a few a cappella highlights where the voices stand on their own. The costumes are part of it too, with glittering outfits to match the different decades. It's a night of songs from the classic vintage era, and the dance side of things is woven in as well.
