The brand new stage musical Fat Friends is coming to The Edinburgh Playhouse this weekend.

Written by Kay Mellor who also wrote Band of Gold for TV, with music by Nicholas Lloyd Webber this fun filled musical is based on  the TV series . The cast includes our own Elaine C Smith along with Jodie Prenger 2008 winner of I’d Do Anything.

The musical comes to Edinburgh first and tells the story of dieters reunited at a Zumba class. Fat Friends is funny with a sprinkling of romance on top as lovelorn Lauren continues to be forlorn about love…

The TV series followed the overweight friends struggling with the absurdities of modern dieting. James Corden’s career was launched by the show.

Thursday 19 – Sunday 21 April 2018
