If I was producing this show, id be preeeetty worried about how reliable she is going to be once the Savoy run begins. Methinks it may not be plain sailing.

It will depend on the course of her father's illness, I imagine. I wish them all well.

Ah.
So it's man trouble as well? That was the reason for the original issues wasn't it.

My guess would be that she's the kind of person who lurches from personal crisis to personal crisis with the regularity of a London bus. So if it isn't her father, it will be a man and if it isn't a man it'll be something else and so on . . . This will be the best understudy gig since 'My Fair Lady'!

Easy enough to find out, what was the rate of absence from 'Little Shop of Horrors', 'Flare Path', 'Hedda Gabler', 'MND' 'Legally Blonde' etc.? If you can prove it was high then you are correct, otherwise you are wrong.

I was under the impression she was quite reliable in the past?

Yes I thought so too. Seem to remember she co-presented a WOS Awards evening despite having spent the day before in hospital being treated for a stomach ailment. She didn't want to let WOS down at the last minute. Or is my memory playing me false?

Yes Sheridan Smith has been a very reliable performer - a complete professional in all previous theatrical appearances. Missing the last shows of FG at the Menier must have added to her emotional stress.

Any news on the West End cast?
I know Matthew Goodgame is in it... but not sure who else.

IIRC as well the Savoy run was (in part) scheduled around her filming commitments as well.

If you can prove it was high then you are correct, otherwise you are wrong. She took no time off during Flare Path or Hedda, MND she took a few days off due to illness. During LB she had scheduled holiday time off and minimal sick leave. Even to the extent that at one matinee performance she injured herself early on in the first act (during the second number) and had to go off at the interval, but after getting checked out she returned to do the evening show. In my experience she is a very reliable performer and hates to let down her audiences.

Congratulations to Sheridan who has just received her 3rd BAFTA Award nomination for her incredible performance in The C Word for the BBC! I so hope she wins, she really does deserve it, that performance was just stunning to watch. And those who are wondering, the ceremony is on Sunday, May 8th... so no missing a show for Sheridan!

Have things been quiet on Sheri's Twitter lately? She has changed her settings on twitter now... you have to be a confirmed follower to view her stuff now rather than just going on to see what she has said.

I'm surprised her manager didn't stop her tweeting sooner. I expect someone has intervened

She has not be tweeting as much lately. I dont use twitter so only know from on here that Sheridan likes to use it a lot. I think its probably a good thing that she hasnt been using it much recently as it gives her the chance to deal with the sad news about her father in private. Also she must be so busy at the moment with her filming up north for the BEEB and then straight back for Funny Girl in the West End. So looking forward to seeing the show again. Congratulations on the BAFTA nomination as well. It was a great drama. I have a feeling though that Suranne Jones might get it as Dr Foster got more exposure. I would hate to choose as both were brilliant performances. Was Happy Valley not nominated because it was broadcast after the cut off date?

Yes, same with The Night Manager along with a personal favourite, Trapped, for best overseas programme. Overall a very strong set of nominations with (narurally) lots of people with theatrical connections. The only one I was disappointed by was Detectorists not being up for best comedy but Toby Jones was nominated so it wasn't totally overlooked.
