Last night’s performance of The Bodyguard at the King’s Theatre, quite literally, started with a bang.
Luckily, former Pussycat Doll Thornton was at hand to fill Houston's shoes and did so with all the gusto you would expect from a performer who has spent over a decade wowing crowds across the globe.
This was in part due to an undeniable chemistry with on-stage love interest Callaghan, an Eastenders star who brought a welcome dose of warmth to the character of Frank Farmer who could otherwise be mistaken for the ultimate fun sponge. These flashes of peril ramped up to a tense climactic scene before Thornton herself tackled I Will Always Love You with all the melodrama we could have hoped for.In fact, it’s a rendition so rousing that a scattering of audience members found it hard to stop themselves from joining in as the chorus swelled, despite a number of pre-show warnings to resist the urge to singalong. Glasgow crowds do love a party, after all.
