January 25, 20241 yr Oooooh would be fun Although why does the first price says ISIS?! (I know it’s a 5)
January 25, 20241 yr A Steps musical would be a disaster. It would have to be absolutely incredible to not flop and be closed within a couple of months.
January 25, 20241 yr Im not sure if its something that would work either but then again I'm not the best judge and musicals aren't really my thing.
January 25, 20241 yr Agreed, I’m not sure if it’s work. Saying that if it does eventuate and it happens to be on when or if I’m in London next year then I’d still most likely go see it.
January 25, 20241 yr I mean I’d probably go see it but I don’t see it being successful tbh I’m very surprised it has gone ahead if so!
January 26, 20241 yr Interesting, hopefully it’s a good script. Viva Forever was really bad so if it’s anything like that I don’t see it lasting long
January 26, 20241 yr Author https://thestepsmusical.com/ @1750807293078225296 Happiness is only a heartbeat away with HERE & NOW, the hilarious and heart-warming new musical based on the songs of the multi-million-selling pop phenomenon, Steps. Don't miss the world premiere of this sparkling celebration of love and friendship at Birmingham's Alexandra Theatre, prior to a West End run. Welcome to seaside superstore Better Best Bargains, where it's Friday night, the vibe is right, and everyone's dancing in the aisles. But when Caz discovers the shelves are stocked with lies and betrayal, the summer of love she and her friends dreamed of suddenly feels like a tragedy. Have they all lost their chance of a 'happy ever after'? Or does love have other plans in store...? Directed by the award-winning Rachel Kavanaugh (Half a Sixpence, The Great British Bake Off Musical) and written by Shaun iamspamspamamir (Hollyoaks), HERE & NOW features many of their iconic hits, including 5, 6, 7, 8, Stomp, Better Best Forgotten, and Last Thing On My Mind. This brand new musical is produced by Steps themselves, ROYO and pop legend Pete Waterman. IT'D BE A TRAGEDY TO MISS IT!
January 26, 20241 yr Oh wow! So is the run only November 9-24? If I’ll be in London it won’t be until January 2025, so I’d miss it.
January 26, 20241 yr The writer also writes Hollyoaks, if that isn't a red flag then I don't know what is!
January 26, 20241 yr The writer also writes Hollyoaks, if that isn't a red flag then I don't know what is! To be fair Viva Forever had Judy Craymer and Jennifer Saunders involved and it was still terrible. The I should be so lucky was much better and if it's in a similar vein to that it could be good fun.
January 26, 20241 yr To be fair Viva Forever had Judy Craymer and Jennifer Saunders involved and it was still terrible. The I should be so lucky was much better and if it's in a similar vein to that it could be good fun. I’m guess that was a Kylie Minogue musical, I never knew there was one.
January 26, 20241 yr It wasn’t Kylie it was stock Aiken and waterman so it was dead or alive, Bananarama, Rick Astley, Mel n Kim, Kylie, Jason, etc. it did have Kylie playing like a godmother role in a magic mirror though.
January 26, 20241 yr Thanks Spiceboy, I probably should’ve looked it up first. Just saw what looked like the song list on Wikipedia. It looks alright.

January 27, 20241 yr Oh, curious to see how this goes and what the quality of the musical will be Hopefully it gets them some positive promo/streams
January 28, 20241 yr Ya because the danger with some of these musicals is they end with awful reviews so hopefully that doesn't happen.
