While in character on stage, Kimberley looked sensational in a vintage style dress, with her blonde locks appearing reminiscent of Hollywood glamour. 

The singer, who plays the the role of Annie, looked elegant in a patterned blouse and sleek black trousers for her backstage interviews.

The mother-was-two was preened to perfection with her short blonde bob styled sleek and straight, while she glowed with the help of a bronzed make-up look.

Jay, who takes on the character of Sam in the musical, kept things casual in a yellow T-shirt and grey shorts.

The tattooed musician sported grown-out facial hair, and wore a camel coloured baseball cap backwards.

The reunion comes after Kimberley admitted that Girls Aloud are ‘feeling outside pressure’ to reform for the band’s upcoming 20th anniversary.

Speaking on The One Show earlier this month, the singer explained: ‘It’s 20 years in 2022 so we’re feeling a bit of outside pressure now.

‘People keep asking if we’re making any plans and we actually haven’t made any yet, but we’re definitely feeling a bit of pressure from the outside so you never know.’
