How Could I Forget?

Special performance from our team & cast last week to support Sheffield Hospitals Charity ✨

We’re reuniting the How Could I Forget? team for a special live gig — featuring all the music you loved from the original show! 🎶

The response to the theatre production earlier this year was incredible (just check out some of these amazing comments 👇), and now you’ve got a one-off chance to hear the songs performed live before our UK tour in 2026.

The gig will take place at the beautiful Upper Chapel in Sheffield city centre.

Thank you! ⭐

We're struggling to find the words to express how grateful we are to every single person involved in the making of the show and to all those who came along. Your messages of support have been a little overwhelming; it’s so beautiful to hear how many of you felt an emotional connection (and a relief that you laughed in the right places).

We have put together such a wonderful cast and creative team who have given everything they have for a month. Let’s hope this is the start of something special. Tell everyone you know and we just might see you again somewhere down the road. Watch this space!
