Omg this will never come to America because nobody knows them here, but they were so much fun. Hope it’s a hit for them!

A true guilty pleasure.
I saw them in concert when I was 8 years old. I think I saw them twice more as a child before the split, and then again in 2012, 2017 and 2021. They're the best type of cheese pop and still hugely popular in the UK. Faye in particular has gone on to do a lot of work in Musical Theatre and from what I gather there's a massive cross-over of people who love musicals and people who love Steps.

Big Steps fan here! Yeah, this would never do well in the US unless the show is good enough to overcome the fact that no one knows them here. Their music is cheesy, fun, and melodramatic enough to make a show of similar quality to Mamma Mia! Fingers crossed that they do it right.

I would see this in a heartbeat. I'm in the US and agree it would never play here but STEPS are fab.

But where’s the S Club 7 musical! And the Spice Girls deserve so much more.

The only British boy-band nostalgia show I want to see is a musical adaptation of "Bros: After the Screaming Stops." Genuinely one of the funniest documentaries ever made, and it wasn't trying to be.

Speaking of “Heartbeat,” the music video of that song is so bonkers, everyone should go and watch it. Honestly, that could be the premise of a fascinating musical.

Ha! Agree. It's insane.
