'Bank of Dave' hits Leicester's Curve

Available for over a year

A new musical based on the story of the 'Bank of Dave' has opened at Leicester's Curve Theatre. It's directed by Artistic Director Nikolai Foster and based on the true story of Dave Fishwick, the self-made millionaire from Burnley who decided to take on the banking bigwigs and fight for a fairer deal for his community. Dave's story has already been adapted into two successful films. The new laugh-out-loud British musical will run at Curve until 30 May. Dave and Nikolai spoke to BBC Leicester's Ben Jackson.
