The Roy Orbison Story

Experience the wonder of Roy Orbison in this brilliant theatrical portrayal of the man, his music, his voice, & his life.

You will find yourself believing you are in his presence, transported back in time, reliving the emotion of each of his songs & the stories of his life.

Mark Shelley is simply brilliant in his characterisation of Roy. He not only has the vocal range & tone to honour his songs, he also has the sensitivity & artistic ability to ‘be’ Roy.

Without doubt, this is the definitive portrayal of Roy Orbison - the man, his music & his life.

Only the Lonely….Running Scared……Sweet Dream Baby……Candy Man………Blue bayou…...…In Dreams…….Anything You Want……..Crying……..Workin for the Man…….Penny Arcade……Pretty Woman………many more….

Orbison’s life was littered with personal tragedy, & career highs & lows. His wonderful resurgence in popularity in the late 80’s through his legendary ‘Black & White Night’ Concert, his solo album ‘Mystery Girl’, & the formation of the Supergroup ‘The Traveling Wilburys’ was a fitting final chapter for such a creative genius.
