The show brings to life the story of Jenna Rink, a 13-year-old who wishes to escape high school difficulties and finds herself transformed overnight into a 30-year-old magazine editor with an unexpected perspective on life.

The musical’s book has been adapted by the original screenwriters, Josh Goldsmith and Cathy Yuspa, who have collaborated with songwriters Michael Weiner and Alan Zachary.

Weiner and Zachary are known for their work on First Date and High School Musical: The Musical: The Series.

While Andy Fickman, whose previous theatre credits include Heathers, will direct the production.

Goldsmith and Yuspa said: “When we wrote the movie 13 Going On 30, we never dreamt that on the film’s 20th anniversary, we’d get the chance to see a whole new generation fall in love with Razzles and feel thirty, flirty, and thriving.

“We were thrilled by the audience’s response to our workshop last year, and now we can’t wait to officially open in Manchester at the legendary Opera House – the launchpad of so many iconic musicals.

“So bring your family, your friends, maybe a date, or just come alone – don’t be shy, we’re all nice.”

The 2004 film stars Jennifer Garner, Mark Ruffalo and Judy Greer and became a critical and financial success when it was released in 2004.

It’s since been referenced in a number of pop culture moments, including Ariana Grande’s iconic music video for the song “Thank U, Next”.
