Cast of Bugsy Malone mark two weeks of sport in the city

The cast of Bugsy Malone marked the two unforgettable weeks of sport in Birmingham by donning their boxing gloves in Centenary Square.

Inspired by one of the classic musical’s most unforgettable production numbers, So You Wanna Be A Boxer? the cast headed into the famous city centre square on the first day of the Commonwealth Games boxing competition.

The major new production of Bugsy Malone runs at Birmingham Rep until Sunday 14th August as a part of a blockbuster summer in the city.

The world famous musical is based on the hit 1976 movie by Alan Parker who’s long catalogue of films have won nineteen BAFTA awards, ten Golden Globes and six Oscars. Packed with instantly recognisable songs from Oscar-winner, Paul Williams including You Give A Little Love and Fat Sam’s Grand Slam, Bugsy Malone is a masterclass of musical comedy with one of the most joyously uplifting finales in musical theatre.
