The Blues Brothers - Summer Special is a supercharged, rock 'n' roll party, destined to take the capital by storm during its exclusive summer run at The Hippodrome in the heart of the West End.

Featuring 20 of the most popular rock 'n' roll classics of all time - including Respect, Jailhouse Rock, Soul Man and Do You Love Me? - the show is created with the blessing of the team behind the original Blues Brothers, and now also includes some never-seen-before material created under the guidance of Judith Belushi.

Brought to the stage by Hartshorn - Hook Productions, The Blues Brothers are backed by the sassy Stax Sisters with the tightest rhythm and blues band in the city.

The Hippodrome's 230-seat cabaret theatre will host The Blues Brothers - Summer Special, which is produced by Hartshorn - Hook Productions and the Hippodrome and directed by Joshua Mumby, with choreography by Lily Howkins and musical direction by James Robert Ball.
