ROCK 'n' roll sci-fi musical Return to the Forbidden Planet shows at Malvern Theatres from Monday to Saturday, July 17-22.

Blending a narrative inspired by Shakespeare's with cult 1965 sci-film Forbidden Planet, Bob Carlton has created an energized, inter-galactic show.

Features include an on-screen performance from narrator and Queen legend Brian May, as well as classic 50s and 60s numbers such as Monster Mash, Great Balls of Fire, Hey Mister Spaceman and Shake, Rattle and Roll.

Running for over 18 years, Return to the Forbidden Planet is a previous winner of the prestigious Olivier Award for best musical, beating shows like Miss Saigon and Buddy.
