Seven’s heaven for fans of musical theatre

Set in Oregon in 1850, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers is the story of Adam (Sam Attwater – Dancing on I ce champion, Hollyoaks, EastEnders), the eldest of seven brothers, who goes to town to get a wife.

He convinces Milly (Helena Blackman – How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria?, Gypsy, The Wizard of Oz) to marry him that same day.

They return to his backwoods home and only then does she discover he has six brothers – all living in his cabin.
