A THEATRE show celebrating the lives and careers of sensational folk/rock duo Simon & Garfunkel is back and coming to Bridgwater. 

The Simon & Garfunkel Story recently completed a week-long run at the Vaudeville Theatre in London's West End and has performed to sold out audiences in over 50 countries. 

The show features talented actor-musicians, and the performance takes audiences back to the 1960s to tell the stories of Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel.

A spokesperson for the show said: "Featuring a full cast of talented West End actor-musicians, the performance will take audiences back through the groovy times of the 1960s.

"It tells the story of both Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel from their humble beginnings as Rock n Roll duo 'Tom and Jerry', right through to their massive success, dramatic break-up, and finishing with a stunning recreation of the 1981 Central Park reformation concert.

"Using a huge projection screen, the show features 1960s photos and film footage, whilst a full live band perform all their hits including 'Mrs Robinson', 'Cecilia', 'Bridge Over Troubled Water', 'Homeward Bound', 'Sound of Silence', and many more."
