Tim Firth's Take That-inspired musical THE BAND, co-produced by Take That, has added six more months to its UK and Ireland touring schedule, now booking through to March 2019. Is it coming near you? When, oh when, is it going to announce a London transfer? Squeeeeeeeaaaalllll....

Celebs and fans flocked to the press night of THE BAND on 26 September 2017 and were treated not only to the show itself, but also to a performance from Take That...with a little help from Lulu! During the speeches it was also announced that the tour will be extended by a year and judging by all the glowing reviews it's getting, we're not surprised!
