Seating chart & directions
Daddy Cool the musical is set in a multicultural London and tells the story of 'Sunny'- a young man who lives for his music. Caught up in local rivalry between West and East London crews, he meets and falls in love with 'Rose'. Echoing Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, the two lovers' relationship fuels the hostility between the two crews, leaving their families face up to past secrets and forcing them to confront their future. Daddy Cool features the classic songs of Boney M and other Frank Farian artists such as Mili Vanili and No Mercy. Many of the numbers, originally written in the 1970s and 80s have been re-interpreted with contemporary musical influences whilst still retaining the elements that made the songs such hits. The featured songs include such classics as Rivers of Babylone, Brown Girl In The Ring, Mary's Boychild, Ma Baker, Where Do You Go, Girl You It's True and One Way Ticket.
