Bridget Jones is Coming to the Stage

Mark your calendars!  The best selling novel by Helen Fielding, Bridget Jones’s Diary will soon become a musical and is scheduled to begin productions in fall of 2011.  While the star of the show has not been announced yet, the show will debut in the West End in London. The team of Lily Allen, Stephen Daldry and choreographer Peter Darling along with Julian Weber make up the creative team. You may recognize Daldry, Darling and Weber as being part Billy Elliot’s success of 4.5 million viewers and 10 Tony awards.  Fingers crossed that the success will carry over into a smashing success for Bridget Jones as well.
