The Roy Orbison Story

Solihull Editorial 6th Mar, 2017   0

Barry Steele is widely recognised as one of the world’s leading vocalists paying homage to the legendary Roy Orbison.  He’s stunned audiences across the globe with his uncanny similarity and ability to authentically revive the exquisite toe-tapping sound of this music giant.

Barry Steele is  quite simply  unmissable, as he takes you on this specially produced musical journey in time, featuring Orbison’s hits  from the early ‘60s leading up to the internationally acclaimed concert  ‘The Black and White Night’ and The Traveling Wilburys.

Barry is backed in this all live multi- media show, with not only a fabulous band and musicians, but a big screen featuring both live streaming, and images from the life and times of Roy Orbison, and stars who worked and shared centre stage with him, interspersed with factoids and information about the life and times of what is considered to be one of the best singers the world has ever known.

The show also features chart busting hits originally made famous by The Spencer Davies Group, Del Shannon & Jerry Lee Lewis culminating in an incredible fusion of ‘60s solid gold classics and ‘80s contemporary musical genius all on one stage.




The show tours nationally with approximately 100 performances annually in regional theatres.  Barry is bringing his show to The  Swan Theatre Worcester on the 1st April, and The Alexandra Theatre Birmingham on June 16. He can also be found at The Core Theatre Solihull on the 17/18 March.
