Owen Clayton presents his solo cabaret Dreams – a night of song of dreams pursued, lost and fulfilled.
Owen is a Yorkshire boy who trained at ArtsEd, and his credits include: All-Male The Mikado (Wilton’s Music Hall & UK Tour), No Limits (Turbine Theatre), JULIE: The Musical (UK Tour), It’s in the Air (Hope Mill), Without (The Vaults), Little Sausage (The Other Palace), Elegies for Angels, Punks and Raging Queens (Kings Head Theatre), Nostalgia (Short Film) and Galileo: A New Acapella Musical (R&D) When They Go Low (National Theatre), Searching for the Heart of Leeds (Leeds Playhouse)
In a series of events over the past few years, Owen hung up his dancing shoes from treading the boards to becoming a maths teacher! The evening will tell the story of his account of dreams changing, being achieved and new ones on the horizon.
Featuring classic musical theatre numbers and reimaginations of your favourite pop, Disney and folk songs, it’s a night sure to make your toes tap and heart warm.
