By: Carrie Dunn Aug. 17, 2015
The late TV star Cilla Black had been "looking forward" to the development of a West End musical based on her life, her agent has said.
Black died at the age of 72 earlier this month after a fall at her home in Spain.
Her agent Nick Fiveash has confirmed that she and her manager were in talks regarding a stage musical.
In a statement, he said: "Cilla was thrilled and excited at the idea, and was looking forward to its development.
"Her manager, son Robert Willis, had been in continuous talks with a West End producer regarding early stages of planning, but obviously these are now on hold for the time being."
