The Jive Aces Big Beat Revue

Towngate Theatre, St. Martins Square, Basildon, SS14 1DL

The UK’s No.1 and worlds’ busiest swing and jive band, The Jive Aces present their biggest theatre show to date, the “Big Beat Revue”!

Featuring special guests, vintage pinup dancing, singing and tapping troupe, The Satin Dollz; The low down baritone sax of Lottie B and the smooth accordion of Grazia Bevilacqua, this show features the best in 40s and 50s jive, rhythm and blues and rock ’n’ roll.

With classic tunes from artists such as Louis Jordan, Louis Prima & Keely Smith, Big Joe Turner and Bobby Darin with the flair of an Alan Freed rock ’n’ roll extravaganza, this show will have you out of your seat with it’s larger than life big-beat sound!

"With a classic set from The Jive Aces and vintage vocals, songs from the three Satin Dollz singers, plus tap dance routines from the two dancers, the entire on-stage line-up of 12 performers was certainly giving their sold out audience value for money..." ***** (Five -Stars) - Southside Advertiser Edinburgh

"The show also ended late, on account of the stream of encores forced upon the Aces & Dollz by a full house audience which had increased in enthusiasm with every beat." - Mumble Music Reviews

"The crazy energy of the Jive Aces can certainly whisk you away to a different era and tempt you to Jump, Jive and Wail out of happiness and joy!" - The Student Newspaper, Edinburgh
