I wonder if they will relaunch Betty, a sort of musical, considering the sad news recently.

I hope they will return to a more mainstream musical like they have in years past. We did enjoy Betty though even without Maxine in it. Surely a more well known show will put more bums on seats and it won't really need a star name. I'm sure La Cage aux Folles was being lined up for the Christmas after Covid broke

The Royal Exchange’s production of The Producers was one of the best musicals I’ve seen, so funny, and a fantastic production. West Side Story was a brave choice and was brilliant. Gypsy wasn’t too good in my opinion, very predictable. Guys and Dolls was ok, but a couple of disappointing performances in lead roles . I’d love to see another really good musical here, here’s hoping !
