NOW That's What I Call a Musical at Edinburgh Playhouse Theatre

NOW That's What I Call a Musical

Plenty of us fondly remember rushing down to the shops to pick up each new release of "NOW, That's What I Call Music!", the thrice-yearly compilation of Top-10 hits that has become a mainstay in British culture since the 80s. Now, from comedian Pippa Evans and director and choreographer Craig Revel Horwood (Strictly Come Dancing) comes a brand new musical inspired by the classic compilations! Premiering in Autumn 2024, NOW That's What I Call A Musical tells a story which many of us lived, through the classic songs from "NOW..." compilations through the ages!
