Just Be Me, Your Summer Holiday on Stage!
Blackpool's glittering Golden Mile explodes onto the stage in this vibrant new musical concert! Experience an introduction to how this musical came about and why its story is so important. The musical is proudly kicking off the 20th Anniversary of Blackpool Pride!
Meet George, a Manchester filmmaker nursing a broken heart and escaping the demanding, yet dazzling, local scene. He jets off to sunny Turkey, only to literally crash into Melih, a charismatic young Kurd caught between family duty, cultural constraints, and the menacing shadow of "Big Baba," a local crime boss.
What unfolds is a hilarious, chaotic, and heartwarming journey across continents, infused with the unapologetic spirit of Blackpool. From the sun-drenched beaches where the unforgettable trio of Karen, Sharon, and Lisa chase cosmetic dreams, to the bustling bazaars with their endearingly chaotic taxi driver, Ismail, George and Melih navigate a world of cultural clashes and genuine peril. While Blackpool's own fabulous, candy floss-haired drag icon, Dorian Deluxe, proudly embraces her authentic self in a town that celebrates her, Melih's journey reminds us that in other parts of the world, being true to yourself can be a dangerous, even life-threatening, act. Their thrilling flight leads them to vibrant Berlin, fighting for a future where they can finally "Just Be Me."
Get ready for laughter, tears, and a whole lot of sparkle. With a soundtrack that's pure summer—from modern pop-rock and rap to Turkish Kurdish rhythms—this is an uplifting celebration of identity, love, and the courage to live authentically, Blackpool style!
Don't miss this thrilling chance to hear the songs, meet Dragalicious (Dorian Deluxe) and the rest of the team, and celebrate 20 years of Pride and our local community! Book your tickets now!
