Described as a cross between Billy Elliot and Blood Brothers, it follows the rags to riches to rags story of Viv Nicholson, a coal miner's wife from Castleford who won £152,319 on the pools in 1961, at that time the biggest sum ever won. The amazingly talented 12-strong cast act, sing, dance and play all the music, creating a truly extraordinary theatrical event not to be missed.
