The full cast are now announced for the UK tour of Tim Firth’s new musical, THE BAND, with the music of Take That. The tour will begin at Manchester Opera House on 8 September, with a national press night on Tuesday 26 September 2017 and the advance box office for the show has now topped a record-breaking £10million. How are we going to survive the wait until September? Well, we've got to have some patience...

It's always a gamble though, when a show is so well loved, to bring in a revival, especially starring someone who's never been on the West End before... But tread those boards she did, and Miranda Hart has proven herself as a true #StageFave! And guess what...the critics are raving!

It's been a rough couple of years for the music industry. We've lost some of our most iconic legends who left us far too soon.

My my, what a fantastic idea! When Björn Ulvaeus saw how much fun audiences were having at performances of MAMMA MIA! he wondered how they could take the awesome atmosphere further. Thus, MAMMA MIA!
