Is QUENTIN DENTIN the Rocky Horror for the new millennium? The cult-hit rock musical is back for another, longer Off-West End run and with a new director, Adam Lenson...

Following a run at Above The Arts, the cult hit rock musical, The Quentin Dentin Show returns for a season at Tristan Bates Theatre from 19 June to 29 July 2017, with a press night on 23 June.

Join the charismatic Quentin Dentin on his mission to make humanity happy. In order to demonstrate his musical therapies on his domestically unsatisfied test subjects Nat and Keith, Quentin Dentin finds his way into their world through the household radio – now a teleport for his sensational signing. Are you ready for him? If not, prepare for an appointment with the Brain Machine…

The Quentin Dentin Show has developed a cult following on its journey from London to the Edinburgh Fringe and back, on a trajectory from humble beginnings to a fully blown Off West- End rock musical. With a brilliant original soundtrack, live rock band and dazzling choreography, it's guaranteed to make you happy or kill you trying.

New director Adam Lenson comments:

"I saw The Quentin Dentin Show in its previous production upstairs at the Arts Theatre and was struck by what an original, exuberant and powerful new rock musical it was. I'm thrilled to be able to work with the team to take this revised and enhanced version of the show to its new destination."

The Quentin Dentin Show is a satire on the extremes to which we'll go to get ahead. Quentin Dentin is on a quest to find personal fulfilment, fuelled by ambition and narcissism. The show combines the song and dance of musical theatre with the really big questions.

The Quentin Dentin Show has music and lyrics by Henry Carpenter and book by Henry Carpenter and Tom Crowley. It's choreographed by Caldonia Walton, with lighting by Lars Davidso and sound by Iain Harvey.
