Musical I Should Be So Lucky arrives at Mayflower Theatre from Tuesday 23 to Saturday 27 January 2024.

The Wedding is off, but the Honeymoon is on!

Head from the aisle to the isles in the official Stock Aitken Waterman musical featuring the soundtrack of a generation with music from pop royalty including Kylie Minogue (I Should Be So Lucky), Rick Astley (Never Gonna Give You Up), Jason Donovan (Especially For You) and Bananarama (Love In The First Degree).

I Should Be So Lucky features no less than 10 Number 1 singles and over 30 songs from the Hit Factory, whose music defined an era.

Ella and Nathan are a young couple, hopelessly in love and about to take the biggest step of their lives – marriage, until it doesn’t go quite to plan.

Will they be together forever, or will he make her cry and say goodbye?

I Should Be So Lucky is written and directed by Debbie Isitt (the hit NATIVITY! franchise), choreographed by Jason Gilkison (Creative Director of Strictly Come Dancing and Eurovision 2023), with orchestrations and musical direction by George Dyer and set and costume design by Tom Rogers. It is produced by Ambassador Theatre Group Productions and Gavin Kalin Productions.

“We have been approached many times over the years to authorise a musical using the songs from the Stock Aitken Waterman catalogue and have always resisted, until now,” explains Mike Stock. ” What Debbie, Jason and the team behind the show have created is a truly original and shamelessly enjoyable rollercoaster ride through our hits.”

Tickets for I Should Be So Lucky (Tuesday 23– Saturday 27 January 2024) are on sale at mayflower.org.uk or 02380 711811.
