When Broadway star Jerry Travers (Phillip Attmore) arrives in London to open a new show, he crosses paths with a model, Dale Tremont (Amara Okereke), whose beauty sleep is interrupted by Jerry tap dancing in the hotel suite above hers. Instantly smitten, Jerry vows to abandon his bachelor life to win her, but the path of true love is never easy.
Enjoy this acclaimed musical inspired by the 1935 movie starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers featuring a timeless score by Irving Berlin including classics like ‘Cheek to Cheek,’ ‘Let’s Face the Music and Dance’ and ‘Puttin’ on the Ritz.
The production is lead by Phillip Attmore (Hello, Dolly!) as Jerry Travers, Amara Okereke (My Fair Lady) as Dale Tremont. This acclaimed Chichester Festival Theatre revival recorded from the West End in January 2026 is directed and choreographed by three-time Tony winner Kathleen Marshall.
