The producers of Monkee Business, the musical based on the songs of 60s pop band The Monkees, have paid tribute to original band member Davy Jones who died last week.
The musical opens in Manchester at the end of this month near to where Jones was born before moving on to Glasgow and Sunderland.
The producers of the show said, "We are all deeply shocked and saddened to hear about the death of Davy Jones. He was a wonderfully talented musician and his songs brought happiness to millions of people around the world. We hope that Monkee Business the Musical will be seen as it was always intended, a loving tribute to all of The Monkees and a celebration of their lives and careers. Our thoughts and prayers are with Davy's family and friends at this sad time."
They have dedicated the Manchester run to him, which will be at the Opera House from 30 March to 14 April.
