Fame the Musical, currently on a critically acclaimed UK Tour is now dancing its way to our very own Regent Theatre in Stoke-on-Trent. The star-studded casts includes that of TV star Hollyoaks favourite Jorgie Porter (currently playing Iris Kelly), soul legend and platinum-selling artist Mica Paris (as Miss Sherman) and Any Dream Will Do, theatre star Keith Jack (as Nick Piazza). Fame the Musical is directed and choreographed by Nick Winston and fans of the movie would also be keen to know that it will also feature the Oscar-winning title song ‘What a Feeling’ by Irene Cara.
Fame the Musical is based on the 1980 phenomenal pop culture film, Fame which became an international smash-hit sensation. The movie follows the lives of students at New York’s High School For The Performing Arts as they navigate their way through the highs and lows, the romances and the heartbreaks and the ultimate elation of life. This bittersweet but uplifting triumph of a show explores the issues that confront many young people today: prejudice, identity, pride, literacy, sexuality, substance abuse and perseverance.
