Steps are planning a West End musical. The pop group revealed they are in talks to bring a show to the theatre based on their hit songs. Steps, who are recently celebrating their 25-year anniversary, have hinted the production won't necessarily focus on their own backstory, but will tell a new narrative with their fan favourite tracks and extensive back catalogue being the musical backdrop. We cannot wait for that one. 

Jack Harlow has announced six shows in the UK. The First Class artist will take to the stage in cities including London, Manchester and Nottingham later this year as part of his tour titled Come Home The Kids Miss You. The news of his new shows comes soon after the rapper pulled out of his performance at the upcoming Reading and Leeds festival, choosing instead to host and perform at the MTV Video Music Awards in New Jersey. Tickets for Jack's UK gigs go on sale on the 25 August.
