Thanks for posting. I am also very excited by this news. I wonder if Grayson is planning to play himself? The article says singing is his latest thing. If he's not in it, then who could play him?

I wish them well but this niche AF isn’t it? Who is the audience?

You could ask that about any new musical that isn't based on a film or a back catalogue.

Just seen that Sooz Kempner's (currently in Withnail and I at the Birmingham Rep) website mentions she was involved in a workshop for this;
Thought I'd then look at Sara-Ella Ozbeck's website to see what else she's done and saw that it mentions a bit more information;
With the recent announcement of Foley stepping down from the Rep, I wonder if this means they'll now skip Birmingham and just open it at the Old Vic? Feels like it will need a regional premiere somewhere before going to London (but I'm hoping it will still stay at the Rep!).
