What’s Get Up, Stand Up! The Bob Marley Musical about?
Get Up, Stand Up! The Bob Marley Musical follows the story of Bob Marley from his youth in the hills of rural Jamaica to international stardom. The show’s title comes from a song written by Marley and Peter Tosh that appeared on The Wailers’ 1973 album, Burnin’. His musical gift and deep sense of spirituality combined to make Marley a global icon, dominating popular culture for over a decade. Bob Marley’s belief and determination saw him bring a unique fusion of Reggae, Ska and Rocksteady to the world, changing music forever. More than a singer and gifted writer, Bob Marley was a musical prophet. His gospel was love and unity.
With access to Marley’s entire platinum-selling back catalogue, the multi award-winning creative team of Lee Hall (Billy Elliot, Rocketman) and Clint Dyer (deputy Artistic Director of the NT) have created an theatrical masterpiece with Olivier Award nominee Arinzé Kene bringing a deep sense of spirituality to the role of Bob Marley.
Euphoric, rebellious and uplifting, this talented company of performers fuse with the world’s greatest reggae musicians to bring to life this triumphant tale of passion, political upheaval and progress from Trenchtown, Jamaica all the way to the heart of London’s West End.
‘One good thing about music, when it hits you feel no pain’

“Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery. None but ourselves can free our minds.”
“Don’t gain the world and lose your soul, wisdom is better than silver or gold.”

Very disappointed,I received a email on the day informing me that due to technical issues the show was cancelled. I was not given an alternative only that refund is dependent on when they are paid and this could take 28 days or more.. I am lost for words that I have spent £90.00 on tickets for a long awaited show that was a gift to my niece who travel back from Portugal and came form Leicester to attend this show. I will never book with this site again.

Had a great time at the show but a fight broke out in the ‘dress circle’ (no less) just before the end. I wouldn’t expect that at the Glasgow Pavilion (my local) far less the Lyric, Shaftesbury Ave.

This is a must see. If you like this type of genre it's brilliant, the set, the cast, the sound were 10 out 10 ten, you can't stop tapping your feet the moment the curtain raises. The singing was on another level, I'd say outstanding. The storyline was very accurate from when Robert Nesta Marley was first born right up to his very sad passing so early in life due to cancer. He changed the face of music forever. Book this now you won't be disappointed.

Michael Duke and all of the cast were absolutely amazing! Never have I heard such naturally wonderful voices all in one production! My only criticism (which is minor as I knew the story anyway) is that I didn't quite catch ALL of the spoken content as I struggled with some of the OTT accents. Thank you so much, it’s all still buzzing in my head 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

My husband and I really enjoyed the show and I can say it worth the price. The cast was fantastic, lovely voices and each one of them played there parts immaculately. It had me spell bond and I could not take my eyes off them. This is a great honour to Bob Marley and his family. I will recommend anyone to watch this show as it gives us information about what we didn't knew about Bob Marley and the Wailers
