I first saw this home-grown show when it was simply called You'll Never Walk Alone back in 2014 and again in 2107.

Now, in 2022, it has the added tantalising title You'll Never Walk Alone - Let's Talk About Six Baby - a reference to the club's European Cup victories.

It's a musical docu-drama revue with on-screen archive footage.

A love letter to LFC that was created to adapt with the times just as the Club is always changing and moving on.

At the end of the day it's all about one word - teamwork. And that certainly applies to both the actual Reds and the Court's talented squad of actors and musicians.

Written and co-produced by life-long LFC supporter Nicky Alt it was always an ambitious goal to tell story of a world famous sporting institution which has had its fair share of highs and lows.

In its earliest form the Royal Court stalwart Bob Eaton was director now it is in the hands of Howard Gray and designer Mark Walters.

An accomplished four-piece band and a strumming 'busker' provide the many traditional and modern songs that accompany a wide range of sketches within a basic narrative frame work.

There is a lot crammed in with moments of high humour and scenes of poignancy as we see the Kelly family about to scatter the ashes of grandpa and then back at their pub The Twlefth Man.

There's so much history to cover you think extra time will be needed for the power and the glory and the years of laughter, joy and tears.

We are shown the origins of Anfield to the impact of every successful (and not so productive) manager.

The show's veterans return: Mark Moraghan (Tommy) and Jake Abraham are a striking partnership with very funny cameos while Lindzi Germain is on top form as Paula. Her deeply moving soliloquy of Hillsborough is outstanding.

Lenny Wood thrives as gormless Kenny. And newcomer Lydia Morales-Scully gives a strong, confident performance as Tia – who is named after the famous 'This Is Anfield' sign.

The music is well moulded to the story with Pete Wylie's Heart as Big as Liverpool, The Christians' Ideal World and The Las' anthem There She Goes featured as well as cleverly re-worked versions of A Horse with No Name and The Strawbs' classic Part of the Union.

Bass player Adam Keast is best known for his Everyman role calls and here again shows his versatilty And thumbs up to Daniel Ross back in fine voice as the scene-linking busker.

The title song, of course, never falls to get the arms waving in Kop-like unison. Scenes of Heysel and Hillsborough are sensitively conveyed as red turns to black. And rivals Everton FC are rightly given due praise for their supporters.

On the eve of the new season this is a welcome return for a show that is a huge hit with Red fans of all ages.

When a replica European Cup was brought on at the end a cheer raised the rafters just like the ones fans heard at every Anfield game.

Globe verdict: Red Hot! Four Stars

The show is at Royal Court Liverpool until September 3.
