Spice Girls to cast Viva Forever musical

If you want to act in the new Spice Girls musical, you would have to impress the girls themselves.

The ‘Spice Up Your Life’ stars have been asked to contribute to the production process for Viva Forever, a musical inspired by the songs of the all-conquering girl group, comprising of Victoria Beckham, Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton, Melanie Brown and Melanie Chisholm.

Bunton is evidently thrilled to join her former band mates.

“It”s all going great. We”ve all been getting together for meetings. We”re working with Judy Craymer, who worked on Mamma Mia!, the musical and film. She”s great! It”s lovely for us girls as well to have a project to work on again.

“It will be a very different story and not based on our actual lives, so we won”t be looking for people to play us, but we are going to be involved in the casting. So, don”t worry, the girls will make sure there are plenty of good-looking boys in there!” The Daily Express quoted Bunton as telling DigitalSpy.co.uk
