Spice Girls Musical Starts Performances
Friends tell me that Victoria Beckham is terrifically nice in person, but that testimony isn’t enough for me to forgive her a participation in the Spice Girls, one of the stupidest, silliest pop phenomena of my lifetime. So I hope not to have to see “Viva Forever!“, the Spice Girls musical which begins performances tonight in London. (Its stars are pictured above.) It’s produced by Judy Craymer, who foisted “Mamma Mia!” on us. If for professional reasons I do have to see “Viva” then I shall focus on the fact that its book is written by “Ab Fab”‘s Jennifer Saunders: a goddess in my book.
