Looking For Me Friend: The Music of Victoria Wood
Looking For Me Friend is a funny and touching musical tribute to the much-loved and sorely missed national treasure, Victoria Wood! Catch it at the Traverse Theatre in April!
About Looking For Me Friend: The Music of Victoria Wood
With “poignancy and heart” (★★★★ The Scotsman) Looking For Me Friend has spread nostalgia and laughter throughout the UK and has the seal of approval from Victoria’s very own school-chums and colleagues.
Featuring the star of BBC1’s All Together Now, Paulus The Cabaret Geek with Michael Roulston (Fascinating Aïda) on piano, it is an evening of pure joy filled with Victoria’s best-loved songs, including the iconic ‘Ballad of Barry & Freda’ (Let’s Do It).
This show is for fans of Victoria and for those yet to discover her, to come together and relish her breathtaking wizardry with words. In telling Victoria’s story, Paulus unfolds his own. A relatable story of a 1970s childhood and what it really means to find your tribe.
So, pair your stilettos with an oven glove, zip up your cocktail slacks and get booking!
Looking For Me Friend is part of the Traverse's £1 Tickets Project.
