David Essex, together with Boogie Nights creator Jon Conway, invite you on to a roller coaster ride of romance and rock and roll, underscored by a helter skelter of David Essex hits and album favourites released on September 15th, 2008 on Universal Music.
In the show a travelling funfair provides the backdrop to a moving contemporary love story. David plays the part of the funfair owner Levi Lee, who is coming to terms with the loss of his wife and the attentions of a newly divorced woman. He is also struggling to deal with his rebellious teenage son's tangled love life and ambitions.
Danger and mysticism lurk in the future, as predicted by a gypsy fortune-teller, if Levi changes his path. This moving story with a heartbreaking twist reaches out to every parent and anyone ever torn in love.
Against this tender backdrop is 'All The Fun Of The Fair', with hilarious crafty cons, action packed sequences and plenty of rock and roll. Hits such as "All the Fun of the Fair," "Me and My Girl," and "Silver Dream Machine" are included on a nineteen track collection of timeless David Essex hits.
Inspired by David's debut album 'All The Fun Of The Fair', as the words of the title song suggest; 'Roll on up, see the main attraction, get your money ready, let's take a ride.'
