Trainspotting: The Musical has cancelled its planned UK tour following poor reviews and weak ticket sales. The stage production was scheduled to bring its adaptation of Irvine Welsh’s 1993 novel to venues across the country.
The musical is based on the same source material as the widely successful film adaptation. However, its reception has reportedly been far less positive, with reviews described as dismal and audience demand failing to support the tour.
The cancellation has also led to visible frustration among cast members, who have expressed their feelings on social media. The decision brings the production’s upcoming UK run to an end before it could embark on the tour.
