A former soap star is set to take to the stage of Weymouth Pavilion in a musical celebrating an iconic band.
Carol Harrison will present the All Or Nothing Experience at the theatre on Saturday, July 1.
The show is said to offer a taste of All Or Nothing: The Mod Musical, written by Carol, and celebrating the music of the iconic mod band the Small Faces.
It opened in London and then performed to sell-out tours for two years before opening for a successful West End run in 2018.
Carol is probably best known as the exciting, fiery, and passionate Louise Raymond in EastEnders. The storyline between her and son-in-law Grant Mitchell gripped the nation and won EastEnders a BAFTA for best soap for the first time.
The All or Nothing Experience band presents Small Faces and beyond, paying tribute to their unique and electrifying sound including the hits What’cha Gonna Do About It, Itchycoo Park, Lazy Sunday, Tin Soldier, All Or Nothing, and many more.
Plus the music created by band members Steve, Ronnie, Mac, and Kenny, post Small Faces. Featuring tracks by Humble Pie, the Faces, Ronnie Lane, and The Who.
Carol is one of the UK’s most highly respected actresses, as well as a writer, director, and producer.
Her career spans over four decades, working at the cutting edge of theatre and television.
She joined the Royal National Theatre Company to work with the legendary Arthur Miller in Michael Rodman's highly acclaimed 1978 production of Death of a Salesman. She then went on to star at the Royal Court Theatre, London, and the Lyric Hammersmith, Alfie at the Liverpool Playhouse (directed by Alan Parker), and Lee Hall's Cooking with Elvis, to name but a few of her theatre credits.
Snapped up by TV at an early age she has played guest lead roles in some of Britain's finest shows. Film credits included a starring role in the TV movie Martha Jac and Sianco for S4C which won six Welsh BAFTA awards. Loose Connections, The Elephant Man, Quadrophenia, and Moff's mum alongside Danny Dyer in the cult hit Human Traffic.
For seven years Carol played the incorrigible Gloria in the popular BBC series Brushstrokes, and Dorothy in two series of London’s Burning. One of her favourite roles was starring as sassy Loretta Sweet opposite Ray Winstone in the comedy series Get Back.
