Beautiful – The Carole King Musical
As so many people have told me recently how sensational this musical is, I have bought some tickets – best seats in the stalls for the matinee performance at 2.40pm at the Aldwych Theatre. Carole King wrote so many chart-topping songs which will be familiar to you all and this is her amazing story – an ordinary girl with an extraordinary talent! The show has been nominated in the category of ‘Best New Musical in the 2016 Watsonstage Awards.

About this excursion
£90 per person
Join us to see this wonderful musical at the Aldwych Theatre. We have best 
seats in the stalls for the matinee performance of the show at 2.30pm.
Long before she was Carole King the chart-topping music legend, she was an ordinary girl with an extraordinary talent.
She fought her way into the record business as a teenager and sold her first hit, Will You Love Me Tomorrow, when she was just seventeen. By the time she reached her twenties she had the husband of her dreams and a flourishing career writing hits for the biggest acts in rock ‘n’ roll from Aretha Franklin to the Monkees, the Drifters, to the Shirelles. But it wasn’t until her personal life began to crack that she finally managed to find her true voice.
BEAUTIFUL tells the inspiring true story of King’s remarkable rise to stardom
, from being part of a hit songwriting team with her husband Gerry Goffin, to her relationship with fellow writers and best friends Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann , to becoming one of the most successful solo acts in popular music history. Along the way, she wrote the soundtrack to a generation, with countless classics such as You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman, Take Good Care of my Baby, You’ve Got a Friend, So Far Away, It Might As Well Rain Until September, Up on the Roof, and Locomotion.
The cost of this fully escorted event includes luxury coach transport, your theatre ticket and, of course, treats.
We shall be arranging an optional lunch and details will follow.
