Set in London and Brighton at the height of the 1960s Mods and Rockers scenes, Quadrophenia the Rock Opera is told through the eyes of Jimmy, a thrills seeking teenager who hates his mundane job, is misunderstood by his parents and lives only for his music, scooter gatherings Mod culture. But Jimmy always takes things just a little bit too far..
Went to see the show in Aberdeen and thought it was absolutely amazing. Special thanks must go to all the mods who turned up on scooters before each show, got the night off to a brilliant start.
