"Geri Halliwell has recalled how she was moved to tears by early rehearsals for Spice Girls musical Viva Forever!. The production opens tomorrow evening (December 11) at the Piccadilly Theatre in London.  Halliwell told The Sunday Mirror: &amp;quot;When we got to see the first run-through, it was just incredible. I was very tearful and couldn&amp;#039;t control it. It was so emotional watching our songs being interpreted on stage. &amp;quot;It was like, &amp;#039;Who would&amp;#039;ve thought our songs would be here like this 16 years later?&amp;#039; I&amp;#039;m really proud because this show displays our songs in a natural, glorious way.  &amp;quot;I always think the sign of a good song is if, ten years on, it still sounds good. There&amp;#039;s a big difference between a track and a song. A track is, &amp;#039;Yeah, yeah, whatever&amp;#039;. A song is, &amp;#039;Wow&amp;#039;.&amp;quot;  Viva Forever!, which features hits from the Spice Girls back catalogue, is written by Jennifer Saunders and produced by Judy Craymer (Mamma Mia!). All five members of the Spice Girls are expected to attend tomorrow night&amp;#039;s opening performance. Photo gallery - Spice Girls through the years:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
