Over The Rainbow - The Eva Cassidy Story

#OverTheRainbow

Over the Rainbow is a compelling award-winning musical, which tells the life story of the legendary Eva Cassidy. Following her life through dramatic scenes and stunning live renditions of her most infamous songs, Over the Rainbow is a haunting ode to one of music’s forgotten greats. This award-winning show has received plaudits from the Eva Cassidy Band, members of the Cassidy family and contains projection and original footage from Eva’s life. Before she died at the tender age of 33, Eva was unknown outside Washington, USA  but within 2 years, she was discovered by Terry Wogan who promoted her music to the top of the album charts in the UK and now Europe, Australia and throughout the World.

The narrative follows Eva from an early age to her first professional gig aged 18. It moves through her first meeting with her boyfriend and mentor Chris Biondo and a rabble-rousing recording at Blues Alley with Chuck Brown. Finally, the production culminates in her poignant and tragic death.

As this world-class cast of actors and musicians (Sarah Jane Buckley, Rob McVeigh, Maureen Nolan) recreate her original arrangements and recordings, the show pays a genuine and heartfelt tribute to a true artist who was not interested in fame and fortune. Eva wanted nothing more than to create beautiful music. From its’ first performance in 2004, Over the Rainbow, has moved people immensely with sell-out performances and standing ovations throughout the UK and Europe.

Theatre Productions are excited to announce that the Over The Rainbow production will be returning to the tour UK in January 2014!
