Too Much Too Young - The Story of 2Tone & Beyond!

Fri 28 Feb 2025, 7.30pm

Too Much Too Young is a high-energy theatre experience showcasing the all-encompassing musical journey of the forever loved and timeless 2Tone Ska movement. With an aim to provide an unforgettable moment in time, it delves into the history and impact of this iconic period. A truly unique 2-hour theatre spectacle, this non-stop Ska party brings back to life the vibrant music and subculture that emerged in the late 1970s, intertwining it with present-day themes that still resonate strongly in 2023 and will continue to do so for many years to come.

Combined with a nine-piece live band formed from some of the finest musicians across the country, our production brings the energy and authenticity of this influential movement directly onto the stage. It's a show that brilliantly explores how society, politics, and racial equality in both eras overlap, making it both relevant and engaging for audiences of all ages.

The performance also incorporates multimedia screens, allowing multi-level storytelling with celebrated visuals and rare archive footage that cleverly builds on the excitement and atmosphere of the whole experience.
