Believe In Love All Over Again As GHOST THE MUSICAL Returns To Wolverhampton

Based on the phenomenal Oscar winning movie that captured the hearts and imaginations of a generation back in the 90s, GHOST THE MUSICAL is a timeless fantasy about the power of love and returns to Wolverhampton Grand Theatre as part of a brand new UK tour from Tuesday 22 - Saturday 26 January 2019.

Sam is trapped as a ghost between this world and the next trying to communicate with girlfriend Molly through a phoney psychic, Oda Mae Brown, in the hope of saving her from his murderer.

The movie Ghost has proven to be one of cinema's biggest all-time hits. Starring the late Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore and Whoopi Goldberg it was the highest grossing film of 1990 and won an Oscar for screenwriter Bruce Joel Rubin who has adapted his screenplay for this musical. The movie and the musical feature The Righteous Brothers' Unchained Melody alongside many more terrific songs co-written by Eurythmics' Dave Stewart.

Oscar winning Bruce Joel Rubin adapted his original screenplay for the stage production. Rubin won an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay for the movie Ghost, which starred Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, Tony Goldwyn and Whoopi Goldberg.

Dave Stewart is recognised as one of the most respected and accomplished talents in the music industry today. Stewart's career spans more than 25 years and more than 100 million album sales. With Eurythmics partner Annie Lennox, Stewart delivered pop/rock hits such as Here Comes the Rain Again, Who's That Girl, Would I Lie to You?, Missionary Man and Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This). In 1999, the duo was honoured with a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Brits. Together with Mick Jagger, he wrote and produced the score for Alfie, starring Jude Law, which won the pair a Golden Globe for Best Original Song. Stewart has won Best British Producer four times and Best British Songwriter five times as well as numerous Grammy, MTV and European awards. This year he released his new album The Ringmaster General.

Six-time Grammy award winner Glen Ballard is one of popular music's most accomplished producers/songwriters and arrangers. He has sold more than 150 million records worldwide and has worked with a diverse array of the finest singers and artists in the business, from Aretha Franklin to Van Halen and Aerosmith to Michael Jackson. One of Ballard's biggest successes involved chart-topping, multi-platinum album Jagged Little Pill (33 million worldwide, four Grammys including Album of the Year) which Ballard co-wrote and produced for Alanis Morissette and was named Best Album of the Decade (1990s) by Billboard magazine.
