Preview: Last Night a DJ Saved My Life Sunderland Empire



David Hasselhoff To Tour UK 
In Brand New Musical

Last Night a DJ Saved My Life
Sunderland Empire
Wednesday 6th – Saturday 9th January 2016

The iconic David Hasselhoff is to tour more than 20  theatres and arenas across the UK with the brand new musical Last Night a DJ Saved My Life, calling at Sunderland Empire 6-9 January 2016.

From the makers of ‘Dreamboats and Petticoats’ and ‘Boogie Nights’ comes a heart- warming and hilarious story promising to be the party night of the year. The explosive new production opens with a World Premiere at the Blackpool Opera House on 16 October, 2015 ahead of a major UK tour which will see The Hoff play 68 nights at more than 20 venues over a 13-week tour between October 2015 and February 2016.

The Hoff plays an extrovert, party-going DJ and nightclub owner on Ibiza at the start of the 90s. His teenage daughter arrives to stay for the summer and he has to cope with being a single parent to a girl who wants to meet boys and live the party life. Suddenly his motto is “Do as I say, not as I did!”

Speaking about the exciting new role The Hoff said: “See it. Believe it.  Live it.  This is my motto and I am living it now. I can’t wait to bring something new and different to UK theatre audiences. I absolutely love live theatre and the interaction with the audience.  To play a character that I can relate to while celebrating an era of fantastic music is going to be Hofftastic.  Come party Hoffstyle! This is going to be a great production and I can’t wait to see the audience reaction. I guarantee you will be singing all night long!”

Ride on Time’, back to a ‘Saturday Night’ in the 90s ‘When Things Can Only Get Better’, and ‘The Only Way Was Up’. Girls wanted to ‘Spice Up Their Life’, Robbie Williams-types wanted to love these ‘Angels’ and friends promised ‘I’ll Be There For You’. A string of hits from Mariah Carey’s ‘Hero’ to M.C.Hammer’s ‘Can’t Touch This’, underscore a fast and funny story that will resonate with young and old when mobile phones were the size of bricks, Nintendo Gameboy was the ‘in’ thing and we discovered Windows 95! We watched Beverly Hills 90210, not to mention The Hoff in ‘Baywatch’. Titanic was in cinemas and youngsters loved Rugrats and Power Rangers; Michael Jackson married Lisa-Marie Presley, OJ took a drive and Monica Lewinsky and Lorena Bobbit hit the headlines!

Inspired by the smash hit compilation album, “Last Night a DJ Saved My Life” will tour the UK for 13 weeks ending at the Bradford Alhambra on February 13.
