This is Spinal Tap

Monday 05 March 2012
Performance Time: 19:30
Venue: Lakeside Theatre
Spinal Tap, the world’s loudest band, is chronicled on what proves to be a fateful tour in this classic rock ‘n’ roll comedy. Regularly cited as one of the funniest movies ever made, This Is Spinal Tap set the standard for the ‘mockumentary’ genre of filmmaking and contains some of the most memorable rock ‘n’ roll performance ever put to film. Satirising everything from lewd showmanship and excessive lifestyle to badly conceived stagecraft, This Is Spinal Tap revels in the decadence of classic stadium rock performance.
