In 1993, musician Jerry Rulf premiered his original 25 minute musical comedy ‘Whaddya Know – We’re In Love’ at Brighton Dome (pictured).

It was an unabashed tribute to the “Let’s Do The Show Right Here!” school of musical theatre with glorious, Swing-Era songs – and it was a hit. Now, 24 years later, he and Brian Mitchell, his erstwhile co-presenter on Radio Reverb’s ‘Up Yours’, have expanded the show, with Rulf contributing additional songs and Mitchell writing a new book based on the same archetypal setting as the original – a cruise liner that would seem eerily familiar to the Marx Brothers and Bob Hope and Bing Crosby.

The Foundry Group is proud to present a rehearsed reading with live songs of this new, expanded show, with three of the original cast – Samantha Dixon, Jerry Rulf and singer-songwriter Jason Pegg (Clearlake) – and the addition of Radio 4 regular David Mounfield.
