Close“Sumeet Chopra’s score is a delight that brings the audience to its feet and introduces a new sound into the stale world of the British musical.” Guardian, **** Fri 30 Apr
Twinkle was an 80s British Bhangra icon but now he’s bankrupt with only his dreams of a number one hit to keep him going. Shindie is a star maker, only she steals other people’s talent to do it! Will DJ Lovely’s ripped off, remixed Bhangra track make him millions? Will Twinkle ever find his magic and shine again or will fate make him change his tune?
Rifco Arts’ new musical is guaranteed to lift you from the dhol drums!
Charting the rise of British Bhangra in the UK from the sequin clad 80s through to the R ‘n’ B fusion of the present day. A twinkling night of glitz, live music and song!
Shake your shoulders, tap your toes – Britain’s Got Bhangra!
“A delicious extravaganza.” Asian Times (on The Deranged Marriage)
“Definitely worth making a date for.” **** The Evening Standard (on Where’s My Desi Soulmate)

I loved it, amazing dancing singing, truely talented people!
Could someone just tell me the name of Jason in real life?
Pauline at 11:28pm on Wed 2nd Jun 2010
Hi Pauline
Glad you had a great time! Jason is played by Arun Blair-Mangat - a name to look out for in the future perhaps.
Best wishes
