Good Vibrations

Returning by hugely popular demand, the Lyric Theatre’s sell-out production Good Vibrations débuts at the Grand Opera House. This staged musical version of the award-winning movie charts the life of Belfast punk legend Terri Hooley, a radical, rebel and music-lover.

This is the 1970s Belfast, conflict is shutting down the city. While all Terri’s friends take sides and take up arms, he opens a record shop Good Vibrations on ‘the most bombed half-mile in Europe’. Here he discovers a compelling voice of resistance in the city’s underground punk scene. Galvanising the young musicians into action, Terri is the unlikely leader of a motley band of kids and punks.

Join Terri and the gang on their mission to create a new community, an alternative Ulster, and to bring his city back to life! Just a stone’s throw away from the site of the old record shop, this Lyric Theatre production features iconic punk anthems including Teenage Kicks, Just another Teenage Rebel and Alternative Ulster.
