Spice Girls come together once again to launch a musical

London: Former band Spice Girls reunited for the first time in four years today as they launched a stage musical Viva Forever inspired by their pop careers.

The ex-bandmates Melanie Brown, Melanie Chisholm, Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton and Victoria Beckham were last seen together for their 2008 reunion tour. The four girls, who went their separate ways about a decade ago, posed for pictures at the St Pancras Hotel which featured in the video for the quintet's debut single Wannabe in 1996.

The Girls looked similarly elegant as they lined up today, seeming remarkably youthful despite the passage of time, reported The Telegraph. They were joined by producer Judy Craymer, the theatrical impresario behind the success of Mamma Mia!, and Jennifer Saunders, who has written the new production.

Viva Forever will feature numerous chart hits recorded by the Spice Girls during their years of chart domination in the late 1990s when they become one of the UK's biggest exports. Their chart-topping hits included Two Become One and Spice Up Your Life. The musical is due to open at the Piccadilly Theatre in London's West End on December 11.
