King's Theatre, Glasgow Mon, 24th May 2010 - Sat, 29th May 2010 From £14.00*Starring G4’s Jonathan Ansell This critically acclaimed production of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Jim Steinman’s Whistle Down the Wind is set to thrill audiences once again as it returns to Milton Keynes Theatre for one week only. An extraordinary and uplifting tale about the transforming power of love, Whistle Down the Wind is based on the beloved sixties film starring Hayley Mills, and features numerous multi-award-winning songs, including Boyzone’s international hit, No Matter What. The bright-eyed and youthful Swallow discovers a mysterious man hiding in her family’s barn. When she asks for his identity the first words he utters are, 'Jesus Christ'. While the rest of the townspeople are searching for a fugitive escaped from jail, Swallow gathers the town’s children who make a pact to protect their new found saviour from the cruelties of the outside world. Truly inspiring, Whistle Down the Wind shows how powerful love can be when the innocence of childhood collides with the cynicism of the adult world. Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber Lyrics by Jim Steinman Directed by Bill Kenwright
