The Band Musical |Manchester Opera House

The Band starts off in 1993 with 5 school girls who love this boy band and after a tragic event it then jumps to present day were the girls are all middle aged and last touch. They are reunited and that's were im going to leave it to avoid spoiling it!
Take that songs are performed throughout the show as expected!

The story line wasn't what i expected as it does have a few sad scenes and focuses around friendship. I think i just expected it to be about Take That or the life of a band!
I really liked the use of the stage and props, very innovative how they used the space.

The Guys who played the Band members were great they all had amazing voices.They are the winners of the BBC show Let It Shine.
 The whole cast were brilliant, i especially loved the girls that played the younger versions, i thought they were great together!


The shows has the same producers as The Full Monty and The Girls and like them shows it has the same heartwarming themes throughout. If you have seen any of them shows before you will be able to see similarities, not it the narrative but in the way it makes you feel. 

Definitely a must for Take That Fans! but the shows also appeals to everybody as it is heartwarming tale. After leaving Manchester it starts it's National Tour you can see the dates here.

Thanks For Reading...
