The stars of Coronation Street were out in force as they reunited with Kym Marsh.
Many of the soap's current cast as well as some who have been off-screen for a while all headed out into Manchester to the Opera House.
They all hit the red carpet ahead of Kym taking to the stage in the theatre production of the classic Fatal Attraction.
The actress - who played Michelle Connor in the ITV soap for 13 years - has already been performing as Alex Forrest, the role famously played by Glenn Close in the 1987 box office smash, across the country.
But it was finally time for Kym to make her debut in her home city.
Alexandra Mardell, who is leaving her Corrie role as Emma Brooker, stepped out after her last day filming for the ITV soap.
The 28-year-old swapped her character's pink clobber for a khaki green shirt dress that she belted in at the waist and paired with knee-high black boots.
Millie Gibson also looked worlds away from her soap character in a royal blue number.
The Kelly Neelan actress teamed the knitted dress with a long-line leather blazer, pair of tights, and long black boots.
Also joining the theatre night out was Rovers Return landlady and barmaid Sally Ann Matthews and Charlotte Jordan.
Sair Khan (Alya Nazir), Julia Goulding (Shona Platt), Ellie Leach (Faye Windass), Daniel Brocklebank (Billy Mayhew), Antony Cotton (Sean Tully), and Rob Mallard (Daniel Osbourne) also posted for the awaiting photographers before heading in to watch the show as did Corrie newcomer Jack James Ryan who has recently returned to the soap as Jacob Hay.
On-screen husband and wife Chris Gascoyne and Alison King, aka Peter and Carla Barlow, arrived separately before posing for a snap together.
Ali was braced for the Manchester weather in a black, long-line puffer jacket while Chris accompanied his outfit with a beanie hat.
Tina O'Brien, who is best known for playing the soap's Sarah Barlow, also headed to see Kym in Fatal Attraction.
The actress, from Rusholme, opted for a smart-casual display, teaming a pair of skinny blue jeans with a black knitted top and black blazer.
She added a bit of sparkle with a pair of studded Chelsea boots.
Corrie favorite Alan Halsall also pitched up to Kym's night, positing arm-in-arm with his girlfriend, and former co-star, Tisha Merry.
Later in the evening, the Steph Britton actress was reunited with her former on-screen brother Dean Fagan who played Luke before he was bumped off by Pat Phelan in 2018.
Ryan Clayton, who played Josh Tucker, was also in attendance after teasing his latest role on Waterloo Road which Kym is also signed up for as it returns to Manchester this year, while Bhavna Limbachia, who played Rana Habeeb, came with her husband, soap actor Darren Kuppan.
Other stars heading to watch the show included Dr Ranj Singh, Kym's Morning Live co-host Gethin Jones, and Strictly Come Dancing professional dancer Graziano Di Prima.
Fatal Attraction is at Manchester's Opera House for a week of performances up until February 26, 2022, as part of a nationwide tour.
Kym is joined on stage by ex- Corrie favourite Oliver Farnworth who plays her lover Dan Gallagher.
Meanwhile, Footballers' Wives star Susie Amy will star in the drama as Dan's betrayed wife Beth.
Kym, however, is set to leave the show with Susie taking over the role of Alex when she concludes her run in the tour on March 5, 2022.
