'Hollywood Rocks' - produced by Odos Entertainment Group
Cunard Line put more than $300,000 into staging the new production show, 'Hollywood Rocks,' for Queen Victoria. The production revolves around the glamour of Hollywood’s heyday and iconic movie soundtracks.

Song and dance numbers include classics such as 'Over the Rainbow' from 'The Wizard of Oz' and ''Singin' in the Rain' with Gene Kelly to more modern hits like 'I Will Always Love You' from 'The Bodyguard' with Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner, 'The Time of My Life' from 'Dirty Dancing' and an ABBA medley from 'Mamma Mia.'

Cunard said the cast of 12 dancers and four singers rehearsed 'Hollywood Rocks' for several months before stepping on board Queen Victoria this month. The show is produced by Qdos Entertainment Group, based in Scarborough, North Yorkshire.

'Hollywood Rocks' is staged in Queen Victoria’s Royal Court Theatre, complete with private theatre boxes.
