Pretty Vacant – The Story Of Punk And New Wave

Pretty Vacant tells The Story of Punk and New Wave at The Courtyard this January.

Between 1976 and 1979 the music world and popular culture was turned upside down as bands, musicians and fashion adopted a new and fresh ‘DIY’ approach to making music and expressing itself. From its birth in New York City to its adolescence in London and onto its maturity across the globe, Punk and New Wave is the music that defined a generation.

For the first time all the hits, attitude and fashion are brought to the stage by this incredibly talented cast of musicians, singers and dancers.

Producer and creator of Pretty Vacant – The story of Punk and New Wave, Ged Graham said: “This newest creation is not just a show – it’s a rebellion against the ordinary!”

Featuring hits originally performed by The Sex Pistols, The Clash, Blondie, The Damned, Ramones, Buzzcocks, Sham 69, The Undertones, Tom Robinson Band, Ian Dury and The Blockheads, The Police, The Jam, Generation X, Siouxsie and The Banshees, The Pretenders, Joy Division, The Stranglers, The Rezillos, and many, many more.

Ged adds: “We have an incredible catalogue of songs and such a variety for every punk fan! Book your tickets now for an unforgettable of entertainment.”
