Adrian Mole the Musical?

Leicester’s Curve and the Royal and Derngate in Northampton have commissioned Jake Brunger and Pippa Cleary to write a musical adaptation of Sue Townsend’s The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole Aged 13¾.

It was presented in a workshop format to an invited audience in London last week to try and find a commercial producer who could provide funding to help bring the production to the stage.

Brunger and Cleary’s other credits include Jet Set Go! and The Great British Soap Opera.
