David Bowie concurs for his songs to be used in Heroes musical
“We could not really believe it when they gave us permission,” Deep Singh, who wrote the musical, told the Observer.
“Mr Bowie’s representatives have been incredibly supportive when we have asked them for things and yet hands-off in terms of letting us get on with the project.”
The musical, which will feature around 20 songs including Heroes, The Man Who Sold the World and Let’s Dance, will be directed and choreographed by Matthew Gould.
“We want the audience to become involved with the characters. There is a fear a whole generation might not get to hear Bowie’s extraordinary music without a show like this,” Gould told the newspaper.
The world premiere will take place in March at IndigO2, which is part of the O2 arena.
Proceeds will go to three charities, the Orpheus Centre, Albert & Friends Instant Circus and Youth Music Theatre UK.
