With original music by the legendary artist Dusty Springfield, audiences will see and hear Springfield on stage using the most up-to-date 3-D technology and digital media. Combined with a musical theatre format of live performance, music and dance, Dusty follows the highs and lows of Springfield's rise from middle class suburban London to the recording of her seminal album Dusty in Memphis. Including rare film footage only recently discovered, the production, seen through the eyes of Nancy Jones, one of Dusty's childhood friends, and other key figures who accompanied her on her journey, Dusty celebrates the life of one of Britain's most influential recording artists.
