DUSTY is a unique new, multi-media “Fusion Musical”. Celebrating the career of Dusty Springfield, a true innovator, this theatrical event seamlessly combines the most up-to-date 3-D technology and digital media with a recognisable musical theatre format of live performance, music and dance. 

The story is told through the eyes of Nancy Jones, a childhood friend, and key figures who accompanied Dusty on her journey. 

Dusty Springfield was the leading female British pop singer of the Sixties and she continues to be an inspiration for many British female artists. Her popularity endures as her music continues to be heard on radio, television and in film today.

Very talented cast good show could have lasted longer but very enjoyable.

We really enjoyed the show, but felt that the Dusty story could have been a bit more revealing, we didn't think that the story was explicit enough, but the cast and singing were great.

Trevor Thomas

I enjoyed the show as I like her music bit it wasn't quite as memorable as I would have hoped. I thought some of the effects used were impressive.

Sandra Bryan

I thought it was very good listening to the songs brought back a lot of good memories.i would recommend seeing it to other people

Martin Murphy

There were a few technical hitches with the coordination between images and sound but such were more than compensated for by a superb and vibrant performance from the cast and the multi talented musicians who joined in. Wonderfully entertaining.

Alex Douglas

Enjoyable, the cast were good.The audience participation was somewhat subdued which reflected on the show. The show is coming to an end this week, however if it was to tour the provinces then I am sure it would be a success.

Catherine Forwood

I enjoyed some of the performance I was not to keen on t he lead girl singing with the film of dusty as her voice was not strong enough I felt it was done on a low buget I would not have paid the full price for the seats £17.50 I thought was the right price I enjoyed the film clips of dusty it bought back a lot of memories from that era.

Amanda Kelly

Nice show could have done with being slightly slicker!

Hazel Braund

Good performance nicely balanced with old film footage.

Marie Cross

Excellent performance, lovely atmosphere, small and warm theatre. The actors were very professional and multi talented with many playing instruments and several characters. Highly recommended.

Dusty Days

Oh, those lazy hazy days of the 60s. Cilla doing her thing, Petula Clark giving music life. Swinging London was the place to be. New music was flooding the scene daily. And then there was Dusty Springfield. Educated at a convent school, with a slightly dysfunctional family and being somewhat of a tomboy, music was, perhaps it can be inferred, her release.

Review: Dusty At The Charing Cross Theatre

Now playing at the Charing Cross Theatre is Dusty, a musical concert dedicated to the songs of Dusty Springfield. While it shows some promise and includes impressive technology, it lacks focus and makes it hard for anyone not already familiar with Dusty to become invested in the show.

Review: They Say You Can Tell It's Her From The First Note

Dusty Springfield's voice shaped the British Invasion of the 60's and paved the way for countless singers in the "blue eyed soul" scene. It was that very voice that filled the intimate Charing Cross Theatre on Friday night to an audience of both life long and new fans, filling the ears of the young and old with her silky melodies.
