Salad Days
About the Show
The ever popular musical about two young lovers who encounter a magic piano celebrated the 50th anniversary of its West End opening in 2005 and has become a cult classic all over the world. With scenes involving a government minister caught in an exotic nightclub, dancing judges, mysterious uncles and a flying saucer, Salad Days lifted the gloom of a Britain still suffering post-war food rationing and heralded the fun days ahead in the swinging sixties. It captured the mood of a new generation and inspired one of Britain’s greatest theater impresarios in Sir Cameron Mackintosh, who fell in love with the musical as an eight year old boy.
