Now, don't cry, y'all, but that Boney M musical, 'Daddy Cool', originally set to open in London's West End on 16 May, has been delayed for another twelve weeks. The £3 million show, starring ex-Eastender Michelle Collins, Javine Hylton, and So Solid's MC Harvey, will now open in August, which means I for one won't be able to attend the opening because I'll be in Edinburgh for the festival by then.
Co-producer Robert Mackintosh said: "The producers of the musical Daddy Cool have decided to postpone their opening to late August of this year. The creator/writer of the Boney M catalogue, Frank Farian, and I have decided to put back the opening of Daddy Cool by 12 weeks, to spend more time in pre-production in order to achieve the technical and creative possibilities of the show, which, in the long run, we believe will be in the best interests of the show."
