New musical running at Union Theatre from 21st September to 8th October. "Newman Carter, a world famous astronaut mysteriously disappears in 1969. Forty years later, a troubled young man, turns up on his doorstep with a letter which changes everything for everyone. Out There is an original tale crossing three generations; sons, fathers and grandfathers. This heart felt story with its country inspired score is created by James Bourne and Elliot Davis - the team behind the musical Loserville." www.uniontheatre.biz/out_there.html

I'm excited to see this, I haven't seen Loserville - was it generally popular?

I'm excited to see this, I haven't seen Loserville - was it generally popular? I loved the original Loserville at West Yorkshire Playhouse and the Garrick (didn't see the Union version). It was generally very well received in Leeds but I think it transferred too quickly, with little time to build any advance, and the lukewarm reviews really didn't help. It was certainly rough around the edges but that only added to its charm.

I only saw Loserville at the Union Theatre and thought it was one of the best things I've seen that year. The girls were too quiet, the band was too loud and drowned some of the actors, but I absolutely loved this show.
