Edinburgh based newspaper, Edinburgh Evening News, published a charming article about the (yet to be oficially confirmed) news that "Over The Threshold" would be transferring to London's West End once it finishes it's run at the festival!
"Musical to hit London
A FRINGE musical conceived in
a Mexican internet cafe, performed in a Portakabin off George Square
and starring a young actor from Stenhousemuir is to transfer to
London's West End.
Over the Threshold, which was devised by
writer/composer Christopher Hamilton, ends its Edinburgh run at the
Musical Theatre on George Square on Monday. Less than a month later it
will open at London's Jermyn Street Theatre. The London transfer could
mean big career breaks for the four Falkirk actors in the cast:
Madalena Alberto, Helen French, Trevor Jary and Kieran Brown, pictured,
all from Falkirk.
Brown, 30, who plays Tom, an out-of-work
actor, said: "I'm proud to be part of Over the Threshold and thrilled
that we're moving to London. I love doing new musical theatre. It's
important to support new writing and I also love the challenge of
creating a new part from get-go."
Hamilton began writing Over
the Threshold in 2003. The 75-minute long musical tells the story of
four characters whose lives are turned upside down in one fateful
evening through a combination of drink, infidelity and
misunderstanding."
One correction in the article however - Kieran is the only cast member to come from Falkirk!

On Saturday 29th August, Kieran will be making a special guest appearance alongside Danielle Carson (Singing In the Rain) and the talented students of the MGA Stage Academy in "Anything We Once Did, We Can Do Better". West End star Jeff Leyton was originally to perform but due to unforeseen circumstances has been forced to cancel and Kieran has been asked to step in!
The show is a celebration of Musicals, comparing and contrasting the music of Broadway through the years on a variety of themes. Featuring music ranging from Pippin to Company and Fame, State Fair to I Love You Because and Les Miserables, some songs you will know, some you won't!
