What's the story?
Virus was a new cyber musical produced at the Theatre Royal in 1999. Set in the world of computers the production starred Jack Wild and Sam Fox. However, Sam Fox left the show early on and that was when the problems started.
With financial difficulties and low audience numbers the show was pulled early in its run and has since become the stuff of Theatre Royal legend.
Whilst the Theatre Royal prides itself on some incredible productions over the years that have starred world-famous names, it is also always important to remember those shows that didn't quite make it.
