Theatre Royal: Saddle Up Royal

Calamity Jane shows you a rootin tootin good time, at the Theatre Royal Brighton

Yeeha! Theatre Royal Brighton is delighted to present a brand new production of the classic musical Calamity Jane, starring the much loved Jodie Prenger, making a welcome return to Brighton after her performance as Lady of the Lake in Spamalot, which played to packed houses throughout Christmas 2011.

Jodie’s extensive theatre roles also include Oliver! and One Man Two Guvnors. She stars alongside the charismatic and vocally gifted Tom Lister (The Water Babies, Emmerdale) and a cast of talented actor-musicians.

Theatre Royal Brighton has added an extra matinee on Wednesday to meet demand for tickets for Calamity Jane, which has won praise from audiences and critics round the country for its dazzling performances, toe tapping score and high energy choreography.

Calamity Jane can outrun and outshoot any man in Deadwood.  Hard, boastful and desperate to impress, she travels to Chicago to recruit a star, Adelaide Adams, for the Deadwood Stage. But things don’t go too smoothly for Calamity, as everyone in town favours the new girl and she struggles to keep her jealousy and pride in check.  It takes her long standing enemy Wild Bill Hickok to make her see sense, and realise her Secret Love…

With an Oscar nominated score that includes The Black Hills Of Dakota, The Deadwood Stage (Whip-Crack-Away), Just Blew In From The Windy City and the Award winning song Secret Love, Calamity Jane is the perfect treat for the whole family.

Calamity Jane runs: Tue 28 Apr – Sat 2 May
Evening shows: 7.45pm
