It’s Birmingham, 1989. Two school friends, Gemma and April, are busy with very important business – planning their lives based on Number One Magazine quizzes and dreaming of snogging Rick Astley. Cut to Birmingham 2009 and it’s the most dreaded event of their lives– the school reunion. Drama, old flames and receding hairlines come together as friends reunite and everything from the past starts to slot into place. The biggest question is: what was with all that hairspray?
The creative team will include set & costume design by Tom Rogers & Toots Butcher, musical supervision & arrangements by Mark Crossland, lighting design by Ben Cracknell, sound design by Adam Fisher, wigs & hair design by Sam Cox, associate choreography by Aaron Renfree and casting by Annelie Powell CDG.
