The hit musical Pretty Woman is set for Glasgow, with the producers confirming it's headed this way to the city in November.
Making its Scottish debut, the Theatre Royal and the producers of Pretty Woman: The Musical are delighted to announce that the smash hit show will visit the Hope Street venue for two weeks in November as part of an extensive UK tour.
Hot on the success of the production’s ongoing run at the Savoy Theatre, London (where it is currently booking until June), tickets for the popular show are on sale to ATG Theatre card holders now and the general sale opens at midday today.
Described as 'Hollywood’s ultimate rom-com – live on stage', the musical is based on the 90s film of the same name, with the story set in the late ’80s when Vivian (originally played by Julia Roberts) met Edward (Richard Gere) and her life changed forever.
A spokesperson for the musical said: "Now, prepare to be swept up in their romance once again in this dazzlingly theatrical take on a love story for the ages – and get to know these iconic characters in a whole new way – in a sensational show guaranteed to lift your spirits and light up your heart. It’s going to be a big night out. Big. Huge."
