The gorgeous Louise Redknapp announced some pretty exciting news on Instagram today folks.

She told her fans that she’s finally ready to return to the West End stage for 9 to 5: The Musical.

Glorious news.

“So it’s now official. I am going to be rejoining the West End cast of @9to5themusicaluk on Monday 25th March until 29th June.” she wrote on Instagram.

“Hope to see you there,” she added.

And as you can imagine, fans are pretty damn excited about the news.


One fan commented: “Fab news! I’m seeing this on the 3rd April.”

“Great news. I’m afraid to say, ‘Break a leg,’ after your recent mishap! But you know what I mean. Best of luck!” wrote another.

The official page for the musical also shared in the good news, writing:

“We can officially reveal that @LouiseRedknapp will re-join the show from Monday 25th March!”

“Catch her in the role of Violet, the sassy office supervisor, until 29th June.”

It breaks my heart ?to say I am having to take some time out and won’t be able to continue with my role in 9-5. Due to a nasty fall I have only gone and fractured my wrist and got 10 (yes 10) stitches in my chin. ? Following my doctors orders- they have said I will be ok but as they say in the theatre ? ’the show must go on’ and I wish the rest of the fabulous cast an amazing opening night and I will be back on that stage for @9to5themusicaluk before you know it. ???
