The Roy Orbison Story
Sunday 11 May 2:00pm
Experience
the wonder of Roy Orbison in this brilliant theatrical portrayal of
the man, his music, his voice, & his life.
You will find
yourself believing you are in his presence, transported back in time,
reliving the emotion of each of his songs & the stories of his life.
Mark
Shelley is simply brilliant in his characterisation of Roy. He not only
has the vocal range & tone to honour his songs, but he also has the
sensitivity & artistic ability to ‘be’ Roy.
Without
a doubt, this is the definitive portrayal of Roy Orbison - the man, his
music & his life.
'Only the Lonely', 'Running Scared',
'Sweet Dream Baby', 'Candy Man', 'Blue Bayou', 'In Dreams', 'Anything You
Want', 'Crying', 'Workin for the Man', 'Penny Arcade', 'Pretty Woman',
and many more.
The ‘Big O’ stood head & shoulders above the rest,
his vocals were peerless, his range extraordinary. His songs are unique,
impassioned & personal. Orbison, the man, was enigmatic, driven, shy,
funny, and quietly charismatic.
From his initial success in the
1960s to the resurgence of his career in the '80s, Roy Orbison’s voice
remained remarkable, communicating an emotional intensity not experienced
in popular music before or since. His songs conveyed vulnerability, love,
loss & fun. His performance was unique, simple & powerful.
Orbison’s
life was littered with personal tragedy, & career highs & lows. His
wonderful resurgence in popularity in the late '80s through his legendary ‘Black
& White Night’ Concert, his solo album ‘Mystery Girl’,
& the formation of the Supergroup ‘The Traveling Wilburys’ was a fitting
final chapter for such a creative genius.
