Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy

The iconic Bridget Jones is back, but this time, she’s trading her quirky single life for a new chapter. In the latest instalment of the beloved rom-com franchise, Bridget, now a widowed single mom (RIP, Colin Firth!), is navigating the world of dating once again.

So whether you’re a Disney fan or just looking for an escape into a fantastical world, this magical musical will surely have you singing and swooning.
