About Cry-Baby The Musical at the Arcola Theatre in London

It’s 1954. Everyone likes Ike, nobody likes communism and Wade “Cry-Baby” Walker is the coolest boy in Baltimore. He’s a bad boy with a good cause – truth, justice and the pursuit of rock and roll.

Enter Allison, a strait-laced rich girl who trades her “Square” boyfriend, Baldwin, for the irresistible allure of Cry-Baby and his misfit crew, the Drapes. As rivalries intensify and hearts break, the city is turned upside-down in a rollicking tale of forbidden love and teen rebellion.

With infectious rockabilly hits like “The Anti-Polio Picnic” and “Girl, Can I Kiss You with Tongue,” Cry-Baby is a politically charged, laugh-out-loud cult classic.

Described as “Romeo and Juliet” meets “High School Hellcats”, this subversive musical directed by Mehmet Ergen, Artistic Director of Arcola Theatre, promises a toe-tapping, boundary-breaking good time. Get ready for a wild ride, Cry-Baby is here to steal your heart!
