The Drifters Girl musical, which played its final performance at London's Garrick Theatre in October 2022, launches a U.K. and Ireland tour September 12 at the Mayflower Theatre in Southampton.

The musical—which tells the story of one of the world's greatest vocal groups and Faye Treadwell, the woman who helped them achieve success—will play dates throughout 2023 and 2024, concluding May 7-11 at the Wales Millenium Centre in Cardiff.
