Show Is Gone With The Wind

The stage adaptation of the classic novel Gone with the Wind is to close three months early.

The show – which stars former Pop Idol reject Darius Danesh – has becoming one of the biggest flops in the history of London's West End theatre district.

It had been due to run until at least September 27, but producers have decided to cut their losses after poor ticket sales.

The final performance will be on June 14, with bookings already made for performances after that date to be refunded.

Plans for a New York production are now on hold.
