We've said quite a lot about Corrie! the play here on the blog. You've had the chance to win tickets and we've even had an interview with the Coronation Street writer Jonathan Harvey who penned the play.
After its great success at the Lowry last year, its tour of the country opens tomorrow night at Cambridge Arts Theatre and there's a preview by fan Lucy Magnan in today's Guardian. It's well worth reading and includes a few interesting insights from Jonathan: "The crowd was very vocal - a lot of joining in. It was a bit Rocky Horror Show with people shouting out lines. Some had even dressed up ... Of course we're opening in Cambridge. It might be a bit different."
I've got my ticket for the Saturday matinee and I'm really looking forward to it. Hopefully we'll be able to bring you a review over the weekend but excuse me if I don't make notes as I'm sure I'll be too busy enjoying myself.
