Never Forget returning to Manchester???

September 13, 2008

Following it’s West End transfer, the Take That musical, Never Forget is rumoured to be heading back to Manchester.

The show, centres on the members of the unlikeliest Take That tribute band and follows the rollercoaster journey of young Gary Barlow-like hero Ash (Dean Chisnall) and his mates (Craige Els, Stephane Anelli, Tim Driesen and Eaton James) in the pursuit of their dreams. Along the way, each of them discovers that pretending to be someone else can sometimes help you find out who you really are.

Never Forget has an original book written by TV’s Danny Brocklehurst (Shameless, Clocking Off), Guy Jones and Ed Curtis, who also directs. The production is designed by Bob Bailey and choreographed by Karen Bruce, with costumes by Christopher Woods and musical supervision by Mike Dixon. It’s produced by Tristan Baker, Bronia Buchanan and Charlie Parsons in association with Jason Haigh-Ellery.

Will it close in the West End, or will a separate production run in parallel to the London hit? It surprised many when it originally opened at the Savoy, so maybe now it will find it’s natural home as a perennial touring production.

Wonder if the boys themselves will turn up in Manchester this time?
