Theatre: Our Blue Heaven......

A New Wolsey Theatre Production

The 6th of May 2018 will mark 40 years since Ipswich Town’s Historic FA Cup victory - a moment when Ipswich united to celebrate success as the underdog became victorious. Join us to celebrate with a milestone musical production!

With a hasty wedding, a first birth and missing tickets to contend with, will our mad-keen Ipswich fans make it to the Final? Can the Town navigate the frozen pitch at Bristol Rovers, the rioting Millwall supporters at the Den, dodgy refereeing at Highbury and make it all the way to Wembley? Created from the heart-warming memories of super blues fans themselves, with a live soundtrack of chart hits from '78, join Bobby and his Blue Army on this nostalgic trip down Wembley Way.

===========================================

This was brilliant. Great 70s music and a fast paced (true) story running through. We didn't live in Ipswich in 1978 and I'm not a football fan at all but I still felt quite proud at the end of my home team. The acting was brilliant and the very limited scenery moved around so much the stage hands must be fitter then the footballers.

At the very end there was a guest appearance by Mick Mills who was one of the original players in that winning team. And as we left the theatre Mick Mills was greeting people and our friendS, who had been a regular ticket holder when young, had to shake his hand, quite star struck. Then friendP asked him for his autograph on the back of her theatre ticket, then came out and gave it to friendS who was thrilled.
