A Cilla Black musical is coming soon!
We’ve had the Cilla statue, and now news has just come in of an even more exciting tribute to the late entertainer!
Cilla Black’s son Robert Willis has revealed that a musical in her honour will take to the stage later this year, and producers are already on the hunt for a starlet to play the lead role.
First look at the brand new series of Blind Date!
Is Lady Gaga going to play Cilla Black in a new film?!
“We started this journey with her, and because everything changed obviously after she died, and we had to make the decision whether we went ahead with this or do we not do it.
Cilla – The Musical – the final project Cilla gave her approval to before she died in August 2015 – will open at Liverpool’s Empire theatre on 7 September before touring the UK.
Based on the hit TV series, the musical will include Cilla’s greatest hits “Anyone Who Had a Heart”, “Alfie” and “Something Tells Me” as well as classic 60s’ songs such as “Twist and Shout” by the Beatles, “California Dreamin” by The Mamas and The Papas’.
We think they'll definitely bring something different to the show!
