Information

For more than three decades, this sensational show has Rock ’n’ Rolled audiences on TV,
radio and in theatres and outdoor venues across the globe — from Croydon to California,
Barking to Bangkok and Swindon to Sweden. With standing ovations every night, it’s hard to
imagine the show getting any better… but for 2026, it just has.

The brand-new Rock ’n’ Roll Legends Show celebrates all of Buddy Holly’s best-loved
songs, alongside the biggest hits from fellow 50s icons including Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee
Lewis, Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Eddie Cochran, The Everly Brothers and Ray Charles.

With 34 years of sell-out UK and international touring, Buddy Holly and The Cricketers has
firmly established itself as the ultimate live rock ’n’ roll experience. Featuring five top actor-
musicians, the show was endorsed as Britain’s most popular Buddy Holly act when the boys
appeared on BBC One’s primetime entertainment show The One and Only, hosted by
Graham Norton.

Every night, this amazing show brings to life the songs parents danced to, grandparents fell
in love to and families still cherish today. From Buddy’s timeless hits to the unmistakable
voices of Elvis, Little Richard and The Everly Brothers, every number is performed with
warmth, joy and the irresistible energy only live music can deliver.

Children adore the show too — they’re often the first on their feet, and when they start
dancing, the whole room follows.

The Buddy Holly and The Cricketers Rock ’n’ Roll Legends Show is the ultimate night out for
all ages. Whatever the season and whatever the excuse to celebrate, make your heartbeat a
little faster with the show that has thousands of fans around the world saying: “I can’t
believe it’s not Buddy!”

Please note the first two rows in Stalls Left and Centre Stalls, maybe potentially restricted viewing due to people getting up and dancing.

Dancing may happen throughout this show.
