EK Rep Theatre Club STEPPING OUT- THE MUSICAL Book by Richard Harris Lyrics by Mary Stewart-David Music by Denis King Based on the original play by Richard Harris Directed by Dave Bennet Stepping Out is a warm and very funny play about the lives, laughs and loves of a group of women (and one man) attending a weekly tap-dance class in a dingy North London church hall. As the play progresses, the class's dancing improves to such an extent that by the climax, a grand charity show performance, they have been transformed into triumphant tappers, worthy of any chorus line. Richard Harris's play now not only taps its way into your heart, but it sings its way there, too.

Two hate filled rival football fans locked up in the same prison cell verbally lacerate each other while their teams assemble for the derby in the stadium nearby. In this crucible, Billy and Tim vent all their fears, bigotry, paranoia, misconceptions and, most significantly, the mutual loathing that has shaped their whole lives. The lads’ collision is not just a matter of football rivalry, but a very serious clash of cultures with all the deep-seated bigotry that that entails. Face to face with the object of their hatred, do they choose to destroy each other or to confront their demons and start a dialogue towards some kind of ceasefire? A potent allegory for peace processes all over the world, Des Dillon’s extraordinary, moving and hilarious “Singin’ I’m No A Billy, He’s a Tim” speaks for any divided culture where polarisation is inbred and prejudice governs reason. When drama is supposed to reflect society, what better arena than the sport that grips society most? “There’s more to football than football”.

Johnny's home grown musical talent has since taken him far and wide. Paying homage to the king since 2004, he is absolutely one of the best Elvis Tribute Artists in the business. His craft has led him to work in countries such as Canada, USA, China, Australia, Spain, Norway, Sweden, Italy, Germany, and of course the Mecca for all Elvis Tribute Artists as he has performed directly across from Graceland in Memphis Tennessee USA. His career has also led him to meet and work with people who knew Elvis personally. To quote two of Johnny's favourite critiques about his performance. "Johnny is doing Elvis proud, when you meet him it's like you've met your new best friend just like it was with Elvis" - Charles Stones (Elvis's tour manager)  "Boy, you sure brought back a lot of great memories for me with what you just done on that stage" - Sam Thompson (Elvis' bodyguard & close friend)
