The smash hit Marc Bolan Musical – Prior to West End

Inspired by the life of rock legend Marc Bolan, 20th Century Boy explodes onto the stage nearly four decades after the iconic star’s tragic death. Featuring some of the greatest pop songs ever written, 20th Century Boy tells the story of Marc Bolan and his band T.Rex, exposing some of the myths and taking the audience on a tearful, yet joyful j

ourney through Marc’s fascinating life. Rocker, poet, electric warrior, king of glam and godfather of punk, Bolan was arguably the biggest rock star the UK had ever seen. ‘Bigger than the Beatles’ the media said. Before his tragic death in 1977, just days short of his 30th birthday, Bolan lived life at breakneck speed, creating a series of iconic images, a string of number one hits and an army of obsessive fans. Packed with all T.Rex’s 70s hits, staged by Gary Lloyd (Thriller Live) and with a West End cast, 20th Century Boy is a glorious story and celebration of glam rock at its colorful best! Featuring the smash hits; Get It On, Ride A White Swan, Metal Guru, I Love To Boogie, Hot Love, 20th Century Boy and many more.

“We love to Boogie and we did”. Review: 20th Century Boy - The Musical at The Orchard Theatre - by Judith Maskell

20th Century Boy Marc Bolan is brought back to life by Director John Maher to mark the 40th Anniversary of the iconic stars untimely death. Maher has a track record of many hit shows includes Thriller Live and We will Rock You.

Marc Bolan is played by George Maguire who obtained critical acclaim for his portrayal of Marc Bolan at The New Wosley Theatre, Ipswich in 2011 and the Belgrade Theatre, Coventry in 2012. George returns to fantastically lead the cast of 20th Century Boy.

At his peak, Marc Bolan was arguably the biggest rock star the UK had ever seen. I was 15 years old when Marc Bolan died so never got to see him in concert.

This Musical has ticked all the boxes for any Marc Bolan fan. George Maguire captures Marc’s facial expressions, body movements and even down to his attitude. It made you feel like you had Marc Bolan performing in front of you, making George the perfect choice for the role.

The Musical features many of Marc Bolan and T'Rex's best known iconic hits including Metal Guru and l Love To Boogie.

We love to Boogie and we did. This Musical left an old Hackney girl happy that I had had the chance to indulge in some live Marc Bolan.

The Musical brought the serious side to Marc's life alive and at times my face was fixed and started to ache from the concentration going on. At times I wanted to cry because parts of the musical were so sad and tragic. Then when the music played, it wiped the anxieties away and we clapped and sang along. Apologies to those who overheard me.

I learned much about Marc's life tonight, as I said earlier I was only 15 years old when he died and too young to absorb his life's story then. All we thought about back then was his music and how beautiful he was.

I marvelled at the scenery, set and lighting design. The Video Story that accompanied the show has made me hope a CD of the show’s sound track is produced in the near future.

As usual the hospitality of the Orchard Theatre staff was fabulous - welcoming, friendly and accommodating.

The Musical runs until Wednesday 13th June. A Musical that will touch you, if you were or are a Marc Bolan/T Rex fan.
