*WORLD PREMIERE*
From Tom MacRae, the writer of Everybody’s Talking About Jamie, comes a brand-new original musical based around classic Victoria Wood songs.
Peggy is recently divorced and lost in life, when a chance meeting with her childhood best friend, Lou, forces her to think about the trials and triumphs of their teenage years together. But thought soon becomes reality when Peggy wakes up to find that she is literally Fourteen Again, not only reunited with teenage Lou, but also with her future husband Duncan.
Peggy must fix the mistakes of her past to get back her present – but which mistakes?
Should she mend her relationship with Duncan? What is the dark and unspoken rift between her and Lou that pulled their friendship apart and ruined Lou’s life? Can Peggy help Lou in time and earn them both a better future?
Featuring much loved songs by Victoria Wood, including ‘Re-incarnation’, ‘Saturday Night’ and ‘The Ballad of Barry and Freda’, FOURTEEN AGAIN is a dramatic comedy full of twists and turns, tears and joy, that will send you home singing and (we guarantee) laughing.
Director Jonathan O’Boyle | Musical Supervisor by Nigel Lilley
