Cry-Baby

Performed by our graduating BA Musical Theatre students. Click here to view their profiles,

Set in 1950s Baltimore, this fun rockabilly musical sees prim and proper schoolgirl Allison swept off her feet when she meets rebel with a cause, Wade ‘Cry-Baby’ Walker and his delinquent gang of Drapes. Her squeaky-clean ex-boyfriend Baldwin and fellow Squares try to win her back, pitting their close-harmony singing against the seductive powers of rock ‘n’ roll and using friends in high places to get Cry Baby locked up once and for all.
