Bridget Jones's Diary - The Musical


The Telegraph takes note of the coming production.

From the article...

Renée Zellweger has become synonymous with Bridget Jones after playing the perennial singleton in two highly successful films.

Helen Fielding, the author of Bridget Jones’s Diary, says we will, however, have to rethink the character when a West End musical opens next year starring Sheridan Smith in the title role.

“It’s going to give a new perspective,” Fielding says at The Spectator summer party in Westminster. “Lily Allen has just completed the songs and they’re fantastic. The music is a really catchy, unusual mixture of all different styles of music. I think people will love it.”
