In the mid-1990s a musical theatre production also titled ''Ferry Cross the Mersey'' related Gerry Marsden's Merseybeat days; it premiered in Liverpool and played in the UK, Australia, and Canada. ==Song title and lyrics==
"Mersey" refers to the River Mersey in northwest England, a river that flows into the Irish Sea at Liverpool. The song is often misspelled as "Ferry 'Cross the Mersey", but according to the song's lyrics, the track is correctly titled "Ferry Cross the Mersey". "Cross" is not a contraction of "Across" but an imperative - "Ferry, cross The Mersey." The Mersey Ferry runs between Liverpool and Birkenhead and Seacombe on the Wirral.
