Richard Fleeshman in spirit

The young Richard Fleeshman (Craig Harris when he was on Coronation Street) has a career that seems to be advancing by leaps and bounds. He's a recording artist and actor and he's about to open in a stage version of the hit Hollywood movie, Ghost, in London's West End this summer.

Ghost, The Musical is on right now at the Opera House in Manchester until May 14 and it opens at the Piccadilly Theatre in London on June 22 (the MEN has both dates mentioned but the theatre website says June). It's been reviewed in the MEN here where Richard's acting and singing, in the part made famous in the non-musical movie by Patrick Swayze, are praised along with the other two leads.
