Job Summary

ROYO are looking for experienced production staff for Here & Now, the official Steps musical as it embarks on a tour of the UK and Ireland.

Job Description

Following a record-breaking run at The Alexandra Birmingham, this brand-new musical featuring the music of Steps is embarking on a UK Tour.

In a friendly seaside town, colourful independent superstore Better Best Bargains faces closure - leading four tight-knit colleagues to make a 'now or never' pact to resolve their romantic workplace predicaments before it's too late. The musical - which has plenty of heart, humour, sparkle, and the occasional irreverent knowing wink - aims to be a fun slice of escapism; about seizing the moment and putting yourself on the line in the name of love. But more than anything, it's about friendship, the power of small communities, and how those around us can make us smile in tough times. The characters have their own love stories, but the biggest of all is the bond between them.
