Wilko: Love and Death and Rock and Roll

In 2012, Wilko Johnson, the iconic rock star and founder of legendary Essex band Dr Feelgood, was told he had inoperable cancer and a year to live. Refusing all treatment, he decided to spend his last months living meaningfully: seeing the people, places and things which meant most to him during his remarkable life.

Then, a miracle happened…

A mixture of words, rock ‘n’ roll, and quotes from the man himself, Wilko: Love and Death and Rock ‘n’ Roll tells the amazing, uplifting true story of Wilko, the Canvey Island legend. A play with live music, transfers to Southwark Playhouse Borough following critical and audience acclaim in its initial run at Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch in 2023.
