I just found this which i thought was interesting its recent as well
Ipswich is staging the premiere of a new musical about the life and death of T.Rex's Marc Bolan.
20th Century Boy has been produced by the New Wolsey Theatre.
The show features some of Bolan's best-known songs including Ride A White Swan, Get It On and I Love To Boogie.
George Maguire, who plays Bolan, said: "It's a celebration and shows how fame and success put a strain on his life and mental well-being, but he came through it."
The musical is biographical rather then telling a fictional story like Abba's Mamma Mia or Queen's We Will Rock You shows.

"The film Billy Elliot used a few tracks... Don't think the stage show did.. Elton wrote the music for that..
Brilliant stage show.."

This show got a recent mention on a BBC Radio 2 show recently. Some showbiz reporter had visited the show as it went through its production stages and by all accounts was rated as very good. |
