Feel the beat in Brum....


Eurovision Express is back from seeing Eurobeat - the Eurovision musical, which this week plays in the Eurovision city of Birmingham. And what a laugh we had!

Although of course nothing can ever touch the real Eurovision for entertainment value, this tongue-in-cheek musical is great night out for any who does, or indeed doesn't, love the Eurovision Song Contest!

The writers obviously know the Contest pretty well, with most of the 10 songs on offer really sounding like they could be Eurovision entries from that country.
Our favourite song was Estonia's Together Again by Toomas Jerker and The Stone Hard Boys (pictured above). And, after some nailbiting voting (now sadly absent from the real Contest) it won! How often does your favourite song win now?

If the show comes to a venue near to you (check out the website here), then buy yourself a ticket!
