A favourite musical about extremely young gangsters comes to Windsor next week when Bugsy Malone 'splurges' into the Theatre Royal.

Everyone knows the tale of New York gangster Dandy Dan's rivalry with Fat Sam Stacetto who runs the Grand Slam Speakeasy.

Fat Sam’s gang still use old fashioned pies as weapons but he engages the help of smooth city slicker Bugsy who hitherto has been more occupied in sweet talking Blousey Brown, a would-be girl singer.

Finally, Dandy Dan prepares for a showdown at Fat Sam’s speakeasy. It all ends in a gooey pandemonium of splurge, custard pies and flour bombs. Will Dandy Dan get his just desserts? Will Bugsy and Blousey have a sweet ending? Come to downtown Windsor and find out.

It is all great fun - and a chance to see talented kids showing off their stage charisma.

This production is a local youth amateur production from RARE PRODUCTIONS - the team that bought Fame, Peter Pan and The Wizard of Oz to Windsor.

The show runs at Windsor's Theatre Royal from Tuesday, April 9 to Saturday, April 13. Box office 01753 853888.
