Advertisements

A new musical based on Neil Gaiman’s book Coraline has been scrapped following sexual misconduct allegations against the author.

The show had been due to open at Leeds Playhouse in April before being staged at Edinburgh’s Royal Lyceum Theatre, the Birmingham Rep and Manchester’s Home.

In a joint statement, the theatres said: “After careful consideration, we feel it would be impossible to continue in the context of the allegations against its original author.”

Gaiman, 64, has denied allegations of sexual misconduct made by eight women, saying he has “never engaged in non-consensual sexual activity with anyone. Ever”.
