Jade: The Musical

Rumors have been going around for a while about the possibility of Jade Goody’s life being turned into a musical and now it seems that it is actually going to be happening.

But who will be taking on the part of Jade Goody I hear you cry? Well, it appears that the star of the show is going to be found by taking part in a TV talent show. The person who is behind the project is Danny Hayward who was best man at Jade’s wedding.

He already has ideas on the kind of person he would like to take on the role of Jade:

“Jade was just an ordinary girl and the person who plays her will reflect that. Her dream as a little girl was to be in a musical, so obviously when she passed away it felt fitting to do something like this. If the show continues to raise awareness about cervical cancer, be a good night out and further her legacy, then it’s not really hurting anyone.”

Audition dates have not yet been announced but will be taking place across the country.

What is your opinion on the musical and will you be one of the hundreds that audition?
