A cast of very familiar names from the worlds of Pop and TV are all heading to Sussex to star in Club Tropicana, a brand new 80’s musical from the producers of the hit UK tour of Hairspray. Fans of everything 80’s can catch the production when it heads to Theatre Royal Brighton from Monday 25th to Saturday 30th March.

When our budding bride and groom get cold feet, they each decide to jet off to sunnier climes and feel the heat– but little do they know they’ve checked into the same hotel! The sizzling summer season at the Club Tropicana sees drinks flowing and tans glowing. Will our young lovers decide to go through with the wedding?
