Bugsy Malone
16 – 17 August 2024
Event details
The joyous and uplifting comedy musical, Bugsy Malone is back at Mayflower Theatre as the Summer Youth Production for 2024.
Based on the classic Alan Parker movie Bugsy Malone which launched the careers of Scott Baio and Jodie Foster, this new production will feature over 150 talented young people from across our area.
Filled with the stunning songs, Fat Sam’s Grand Slam, My Name is Tallulah, You Give a Little Love and of course Bugsy Malone, the show takes place in Prohibition era, New York.
Two gangs square off in a 1920s rivalry of Capone-ian standards. Dandy Dan’s gang has gotten the upper hand since obtaining the “splurge” gun (a weapon that shoots whipped cream). Now, Fat Sam and his bumbling buffoons are in real trouble! Bugsy Malone, a one-time boxer, is thrust not-so-willingly into the limelight when he becomes the last chance that Fat Sam’s gang has of surviving. All Bugsy really wants to do is spend time with his new love, Blousey, but that just isn’t in the cards for our hero.
Give a little love and book tickets today.

We are very excited to announce our fourth Christmas Youth Production coming in December 2024!
The Christmas Youth Production this year will be:
Wind in the Willows: Toad’s BIG Musical Adventure
Our Christmas Youth Production gives young people aged 11 – 18 years the opportunity to work together over a 4 month period with a professional creative team taking a show from the first read through to final performances. These rehearsal periods offer a great opportunity to learn more about performing arts whilst working towards a common goal and making new friends. We are particularly looking for actors who are able to sing.
To get involved you must first register for an audition. We make our audition event fun and light hearted giving everyone an opportunity to get involved.
Please note there are a limited amount of audition places.
