The cast will perform 40 classic hits, including She Loves You, Glad All Over, Jumpin’ Jack Flash, Ferry Cross The Mersey, Shout, You’re My World, and Something Tells Me I’m Into Something Good.

The show will also feature bespoke costumes and stage design to recreate the vibrancy of the 60s.

Show organisers said: "Every note and every outfit take you deeper into the heart of an unforgettable era when British music conquered the world.

"For those who lived through the 60s, this is a chance to relive the magic.

"For those who didn’t, Twist and Shout offers the perfect opportunity to discover what made the decade so iconic.

"As the saying goes, 'If you remember the 60s, you really weren’t there.'

"Now, thanks to Twist and Shout, you can find out exactly what you missed."

The show aims to offer an opportunity for older generations to relive the magic of the 60s and for younger generations to experience what made the decade iconic.
