Robbie Williams Story Set for West End Stage???

Boy band Take That have already had a musical based around their songs – Never Forget, which enjoyed a brief stint in the West End in 2008. And now it appears that breakaway member Robbie Williams is once again getting the spotlight all to himself. The Sun newspaper reports that Old Vic owner Sally Greene, a major player behind Billy Elliot the Musical, has been given the green light to bring Williams’ turbulent story and chart-topping songs to the West End stage. “Robbie is bang up for the musical and thinks it will be a fun production,” an unnamed source told the paper. “He loves West End shows and is honoured they will be doing one about his life.” Greene has apparently already started the hunt to find a suitable Robbie – and is no doubt on the lookout for some funding ‘Angels’.
