The Bodyguard
Summary
The story from the hit film is brought out of the screen and onto the stage
The Bodyguard the Musical is a musical adaptation of the hugely successful 1992 film, starring Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner.
The Bodyguard is a romantic thriller and tells the story of a former Secret Service Agent turned bodyguard who is hired to protect Houston's character, a music star, from an unknown stalker.
The original film soundtrack won the 1994 Grammy Award for Album of the Year.

Reviews
"Heather Headley [is] a stellar presence, looks stunning in an array glittery outfits, and is in knockout voice....You go in humming the tunes; you come out whooping them."
"The show visually has such a huge impact you will be taken aback by the extravagance of the sets and technology behind it. The story line varies very slightly from the original film but it is adapted in such a way that cleverly the songs form a very important part of the narrative and are not just crowbarred into the show for the sake of it. The leads are brilliant, I especially liked 'Frank' even though he did not sing (well apart from a terrible attempt at karaoke); Heather just made my skin tingle when she sang. A real classy West End show that has appeal to all, I would recommend this as a show to take a husband to, or to impress a girl on a first date, as there is no doubt you will be on your feet dancing at the end and will leave the show thoroughly satisfied."
