Steps Star Faye Tozer on UK nationwide stage tour in 69 SHADES OF BLACK from April 2015

LONDON - Aug. 28, 2014 - PRLog -- Faye Tozer to star as ‘Christina Black’

In the new stage comedy ’69 Shades of Black’

On tour nationwide from Friday 10 April 2015

Steps star and actress Faye Tozer will return to the stage in the uproariously funny new comedy, 69 Shades of Black.  The show will begin a major national tour in Kilmarnock on Friday 10 April 2015 and then visit over 40 towns and cities around the country.

Sassy and saucy with a whip-crackingly riotous script, 69 Shades of Black is the perfect feel-good girl’s night out.

Boring and vanilla; William Shight’s most interesting trait has always been his snigger inducing name. Up until now that is!

Since landing his dream job at one of the country’s top advertising agencies, things have taken a turn for the shocking.  ‘Christina Black’, the company director, has taken a shine to ‘William’ and attempts to seduce him with an indecent proposal. Overwhelmed by the attention and without friends or family to turn to, he decides seek the advice of the only two men in his life he can trust, the hilariously argumentative gabriel and gideon...his conscience.  William tries in vain to resist but in the end relents and signs a 69 page contract, the one Christina intends to use to make a man out of him....  the 20 pages of “don’t” and 49 pages of “do whatever the hell i want” will lead william on the hilariously painful journey of a lifetime.

Faye trained at the Anne Gale school of dance where she achieved advanced qualifications in all aspects of dance, including ballet, tap and modern. She then went on to dance professionally with the belinda king dancers for two years, until international success with the phenomenon that was Steps.

During a six year long period, steps had over 18 top ten hits and four multi platinum albums, overall record sales topped 20 million and are still rising today!

Steps toured internationally throughout this period, playing many of the world’s largest arenas. They also toured the US supporting Britney Spears. Concerts also include: Party In The Park, T-In The Park, The Welsh Proms and a Concert in Oman for British Troops.

Along with number one singles, albums and tours, Faye also has a wealth of presenting experience. Her credits include: The Pepsi Chart Show, S.M.T.V, Disney Channel Kids Awards, Kids Proms in the Park and The Big Breakfast.

At the height of their fame, Steps announced their split. Faye was then to achieve success and acclaim with Russell Watson and their Top Ten Hit “Someone Like You”. This led to an Arena Tour in the UK and New Zealand where she sang to an audience of over 140,000.

Faye made her debut Musical Theatre Tour in “Tell Me On A Sunday”, for which she received excellent reviews. In 2005 she then toured with the hit show “Love Shack” playing the leading role of Bonnie, as well as working in the studio both here and in Los Angeles on her debut solo album. She then went on to star in the West End in “Saucy Jack and The Space Vixens”, playing the leading role of Jubilee Climax.

Faye’s other theatre work includes: Sally in “Me and My Girl” (UK Tour), Sheila Wendice in “Dial M for Murder” (UK Tour), Eva Cassidy in “Over The Rainbow” and Annie in “Rhinestone Mondays”, and  she originated the role of Marion Davies in the new musical “The Tailor Made Man”.  Most recently she toured in the award-winning “Singin In The Rain” as Lina Lamont.

Faye will head a cast of four.  The show is directed by Michael Courtney with a script by Courtney, Chris Taylor and Fraser Boyle.  The show is produced by Michael Courtney Productions.

Michael Courtney has produced and directed the UK tours of the critically acclaimed Mad About The Musicals, Waterloo, Shakin All Over, Its D’Lovely, A Night Of Musicals, over 30UK Pantomimes and was nominated as the UK Producer of The Year by Encore Magazine.  He is currently on tour in his show, Love Changes Everything.
