Popstars the 90's Musical open meeting is TONIGHT!
We can’t wait to catch up with old faces and meet some newbies. See you all at 7:30 😁9️⃣0️⃣🎤

‘A cheese-fest of the highest degree' meet Popstars Musical Director James McCutcheon...
"With music from no less than 28 absolute CLASSICS from the 90s, this show promises to be a cheese-fest of the highest degree and I absolutely cannot wait to get started… It has FOUR medley/mash-up type numbers, all topped off with a MEGAMIX!! I mean who doesn’t love a Megamix?? But don’t think it’s all just straight forward “pop” music as the title may suggest, the music spans a plethora... of musical styles…from Pop to Rock, Country to R’n’B, Soul to Glam Metal…there’s even a cheeky Baroque piece in there for good measure! These fab (and in some cases - not what you’ll be expecting) arrangements are no walk in the park either. There is certainly plenty going on to keep the whole cast…and production team…on their toes!! But I’m so pleased that Allegro have brought Andy, Flick and I back together - clearly someone has noticed that Jukebox musicals are our speciality! Well, I think it’s clear I’m loving this music…and it’s going to take a lot of hard work to get it sounding as good as it looks on the page…but as the New Radicals taught us: you only get what you give."

He might not know much about The Back Street Boys but he has promised us that Popstars will be like a mega 90’s gig and we can’t wait.
Meet Popstars director Andy Johnston.
"I am absolutely delighted that my extensive, some would say encyclopedic, knowledge of 90’s pop will finally be put to good use in this production. What I don’t know about Back Street Boys is not worth talking about.
... As Flick has already said, there a numbers galore, ranging from boy and girls band classics of the era, rolling across the decade to include artists as varied as Bon Jovi, M People, Cher, Shania Twain and even Wet Wet Wet. We will be pulling out all the stops to stage and light these numbers as spectacularly as possible – it will be like a mega 90’s gig!
The story is great fun and gives us loads of opportunities for laughs at the dynamics within the girl and boy groups – and the interaction between them. In fact, there are scenes of auditions, rehearsals and subsequently performance, so it’s kinda what you all already do!
It’s a big company show with over 20 individual named parts. OK, some are called Girl 1 to Girl 7, but they all count!
It’s great to be working with Allegro again, especially with James and Flick and more especially on a piece that’s new to Edinburgh.
In the immortal words of Jennifer Lopez – Let’s Get Loud!"

With Popstars open meeting only a week away and auditions just around the corner we thought it would be great to ask the production team to release a few sneaky insights over the next few days on what the show has to offer.
First up, our choreographer Felicity: "This show is going to be so much fun! It has over 20 dance numbers which is very intense but it is split up and involves featured dancers and the ensemble a lot; so there really is so much for everyone to do. There ...are 7 big ensemble numbers which is way more than any typical musical and an additional 5 numbers for anyone wanting to be a featured dancer. It has so many different styles of dance from 'Achy Breaky Heart' line dancing to men fronting up 'Hit me baby one more time' to replicating some serious standing up from a chair on a key change! I'm so excited to get going with this show and hope anyone who loves the 90's, dancing and full on cheesey pop, auditions".
