FIFTY years since they recorded their first No1 hit single, a touring theatre show celebrating folk/rock sensation Simon and Garfunkel is coming to Barrow.
Featuring West End leading man Dean Elliott (Buddy Holly in 'Buddy - The Musical'), 'The Simon and Garfunkel Story' takes audiences back through the groovy 1960s.
It tells the story of both Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel from their humble beginnings as Rock n Roll duo 'Tom and Jerry', right through their massive success, dramatic break-up and finishing with a stunning recreation of the 1981 Central Park reformation concert.
Using a huge projection screen, the show features both original photos and film footage whilst a full live band perform all their hits including 'Mrs Robinson', 'Cecilia', 'Bridge Over Troubled Water', 'Homeward Bound' and 'Sound of Silence'.
‘The Simon and Garfunkel Story’ is on at The Forum, Barrow-in-Furness on October 11.
