Coronation Street star cousins Brooke Vincent and Ellie Leach showed off their autumnal styles as they hit the red carpet ahead of seeing The Lion King in Manchester. The pair were among some of the celebrity faces who headed out to Manchester's Palace Theatre to see the Dinsey classic on stage.
The show, based on the hit 1990s Disney movie, opened for previews in Manchester on October 27, with a red carpet premiere taking place on Tuesday night (November 1). And ahead of our local stars heading out ot see the show, it was revealed that The Lion King will stay on for an extra THREE weeks of shows in Manchester until March 2023, making it one of the longest-running shows in recent Manchester theatre history at an epic 19 weeks.
As well as the stars of Corrie, Emmerdale, Strictly Come Dancing, Gogglebox, and England Women's football team, our very own reporter Bethan Shufflebotham went to see the legendary movie come to life, and said "it's the most visually spectacular show I've ever seen."
