Brothers Bertie and Edwin Lightfoot are stuck in the past, dreaming about what could have been when they had the world at their feet as singing sensations, ‘The Lightfoot Brothers’. Then one day, their father ‘Pappa Lightfoot’ sends them a heavenly command to put on the show of their lives... and the party really begins!

You Can Do It is based on an original story by Roger Wright, and features a live band. It is a feel-good show filled with a mix of soul classics, jazz, pop, rock, rhythm and blues, featuring songs by such entertainment legends as Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding, Nat King Cole and Sammy Davis Jr, as well as Earth Wind and Fire, Whitesnake and many more.

Roger Wright and Paul Hazel have both starred in some of the biggest West End musicals.
