The Full Magical Show with Exclusive Footage

"Spectacular... Stunning... Remarkable" - DAILY MAIL

The scene is set when a ragged gypsy bundle, the child HEATHCLIFF, os brought to WUTHERING HEIGHTS. As the passionate boy grows into the brooding man, his tangled love for the troubled CATHY unfolds and the story races to its tragic conclusion on the snow covered moors.

CLIFF RICHARD caused a sensation when he announced his plan to fulfil a lifetime ambition and bring EMILY BRONTE'S brooding, obsessional character to the stage. With lyrics by TIM RICE (Evita, Jesus Christ Superstar) and music composef by JOHN FARRAR (Writer of the hit songs from "Grease"), Cliff and theatre-lovers countrywide proved the critics wrong and made the production a record breaking success. All the magic of the live stage performance is captured here, together with stunning extra footage filmed on the Yorkshire moors exclusively for this video.
