Louis Redknapp takes cameo role in Friends-inspired musical, Friendsical, when it comes to Hampshire

Louise will be joining the cast in Southampton’s MAST Mayflower Studios from September 5 to 7 making a special cameo appearance and performing in musical number Richard’s Moustache.

As an acclaimed recording artist of the albums Naked, Woman in Me and as a finalist on Strictly Come Dancing in 2016, Louise is no stranger to taking the stage.

She says: ‘I’m thrilled to announce that I’ll be a special guest for Friendsical… I’ve always been such a huge Friends fan as you may know and now finally get a chance to be part of the show (sort of!), I’ve watched the show for many years so this is super exciting for me.’

Ross, Rachel, Joey, Monica, Chandler and Phoebe have been with us for nearly 30 years, and this time a stage show musical parody crams all 10 seasons and 236 episodes into just over two hours of nostalgic fun.

Join all six friends as they sit around the iconic brown couch in Central Perk and take a trip down memory lane.

When Ross’ wife leaves him for another woman, he fears he will never find love again. But then Rachel runs back into his life... will he end up with his one true love?

Featuring original songs such as (He’s her) Lobster!, Richard’s Moustache and You’re Over Me? When Were You Under Me?, the gang take on naked Thursdays, a power cut, and a dinosaur convention.

Writer-director Miranda Larson says: ‘From day one of airing, I have been a huge fan of the TV Show, and it has been a dream to stage and celebrate this iconic series. There is something for everyone in Friendsical, from the well-known references to ones that only mega fans (like me) will get.

‘O,h and if you are new to Friends, then it’s a fun musical love story that can be easily followed!’

Friendsical is an original, unique parody musical inspired by the hugely popular US sitcom Friends.
