Laurence Marks and Maurice Gran’s Dreamboats and Petticoats takes its name and inspiration from the best selling compilation album. The story of two young musicians is driven by some of the most timeless classics from the 1950’s and 1960’s.

Rock’n’roll wannabes Bobby and Norman (of Norman and the Conquests) compete for the attention of their many female admirers. However, the competition gets serious when they encounter the beautiful Laura. Young and good looking, Laura is also a talented guitarist herself. When the three get together, fame finally beckons.

Dreamboats and Petticoats features songs by such artists as Roy Orbison, Billy Fury, Eddie Cochrane, the Shadows and Chuck Berry.
