One of the biggest hits in New Vic history, Good Golly Miss Molly is a powerful, music-fuelled, feel-good drama that bursts back onto the stage this spring as part of our 40th anniversary celebrations At the frontline of a community fighting for survival, their vibrant street faces demolition. But Molly Gordon and her band of neighbours are refusing to go quietly. Gathered together in the local workingmen's club, Molly's even managed to reunite her former rock ‘n' roll band, Ronnie Angel and The Devils. As the fate of their homes is decided, the residents of Victoria Street relive the community's past, and the triumphs and tragedies of their daily lives. But is there a future for their street? Pulsing with energy, nostalgia and a foot-stomping soundtrack of rock ‘n' roll hits from an era gone by, Good Golly Miss Molly charts the history of one local community against a backdrop of social turmoil, societal changes and tumultuous friendships. A story of defiance, solidarity and unbreakable community spirit in the face of adversity, this feel-good show is as relevant as ever!
