"I wrote some great music for it, but Helen Fielding wants to go back and write a whole new story. It's been a long-term project and I was happy to do my bit but I'm now out of the picture," said Allen.
 
The musical was originally due to open in West End here in 2011 but suffered a series of setbacks, including the exit of lead actress Sheridan Smith in 2012.
