Jackie the Musical heads to the Opera House, Manchester, in May.
With a soundtrack featuring the era’s hits, including the sounds of Donny Osmond, David Cassidy and Marc Bolan live on stage, the show stars Janet Dibley (The Two of Us / Guys and Dolls) as Jackie, Nicholas Bailey (The Invisible / EastEnders) as Max and Graham Bickley (Bread / Sunset Boulevard) as John.
It tells the story of a 50-something divorcée who revisits her stash of well-thumbed Jackie magazines for the same reason she first read them nearly 40 years ago: advice on how best to navigate the opposite sex.
