AOS: Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Based on the 1968 film, starring Dick Van Dyke, Sally Ann Howes and Lionel Jeffries, which was itself based on the original book by Ian Fleming, the musical version made it’s debut at the London Palladium in 2002, before moving on to Broadway in 2005. Since then, it has also been a popular touring show, with multiple professional productions playing to packed audiences in major cities in the UK and US.

All of the well-known songs from the film are in the show, including ‘Toot Sweets’, ‘Me Ol’ Bamboo’, ‘Truly Scrumptious’, ‘Chu-Chi Face’, and of course, ‘Chitty Chitty Bang Bang’.

Everyone at AOS is excited that we’ve managed to be one of the few amateur societies in the country chosen to produce this show, and with rehearsals now underway, we can’t wait to take to the stage in autumn 2023.
