The Spice Girls Story: Viva Forever!
Documentary telling the definitive story of one of pop music's biggest
ever all-female groups, as 15 years after they first took the world by
storm, a new musical about the girls called Viva Forever! is about to
hit the West End. The programme looks at the creative process behind the
show that is produced by Judy Craymer, creator of the West End hit
Mamma Mia!, and written by Jennifer Saunders in collaboration with the
Spice Girls themselves. The documentary traces the five girls' journey
in their quest for fame, a story which is actually in parallel with the
plot of the stage show. Featuring contributions from the Spice Girls
themselves, some of the people who shared their experience including two
of their mothers, and some of the songwriters who helped them with hits
such as Wannabe, Stop and Who Do You Think You Are. The cameras also go
behind the scenes at rehearsals as Viva Forever! prepares to open.
