Bad Girls is a fresh, funny and original British musical, based on characters and stories from the award winning and hugely popular ITV television drama. It was developed by the creators of Bad Girls, Maureen Chadwick and Ann McManus, in collaboration with composer and lyricist Kath Gotts, and director Maggie Norris.

Following workshops at the Old Vic and the New Players Theatre in London,
Bad Girls The Musical premiered at West Yorkshire Playhouse in June 2006 and then opened at the Garrick Theatre  London in September 2007.


As per the television series, the musical is also set in the fictional setting
of HMP Larkhall and starts back at the beginning of the story in Series 1.
The new idealistic Governor of New Wing, Helen Stewart, battles against
officers Jim Fenner and Sylvia 'Bodybag' Hollamby. Interwoven is the
underlying sub-plot of the romance between charismatic life inmate
Nikki Wade and Wing Governor Helen Stewart.


After a tragic death on the wing (in which guard Jim Fenner is implicated)
an angry protest from the women force Helen and Nikki to their opposite sides
of the bars. But when it’s clear that Helen stands to lose her job over
Jim Fenner’s misdeeds as he attempts to deflect any suspicion that falls
on him, the race is on for all the women to nail Jim once and for all.
