because I want to forget her, Amanda Holden was the Fairy Godmother Doh. Thanks for reminding me.... Well, despite La Page, I've finally succumbed to 4 tix in the royal circle on Christmas eve - we always do something and as it's a Sunday all the theatres are closed, bar the pantos and I can't face any of the ones in our area due to too many people I can't stand/don't know/reality rejects, not to mention the hell that is the Christmas eve car parks. Palladium is easy and I love everyone else in it and, let's face it, know the script already!

Am heading off up Manchester to see John Barrowman's Dick instead. And if rumours are to be believed I don't think you'd be the first.

I am led to believe that John's Dick is something to behold.

Yes it's a famously difficult part so as long as Barrowman gets his teeth into Dick I don't think the audience will be disappointed.

I believe products are available, TM.
The Krankies seem to be a little obsessed with John Barrowman's Dick. Wherever it goes, they go.

Apparently John Barrowman and the Krankies come as a package.

Interesting that they all work together or effectively John says wherever he goes they appear too.

John Barrowman's Dick has been the talk of theatreland up and down the country for years. But you can never see enough Dicks, I say, so it'll be refreshing to see Charlie's this year. I'm sure it'll be admired by many of us.

I'm sure Charlie's Dick will not disappoint and what a venue to show it off in.

Speaking of Charlie's actual dick, if anyone wants to see a performance of his in West End Bares 2014, he gets down to his pants then completely naked! I'll link it, he's the male dancer on the left. And nice to see him do a completely different style of dance too (like that is what we are looking at!):

As much as I enjoy a good Dick comparison, I'm gonna attempt to put this thread back on track by asking if anyone can advice whether it's likely they'll do Day Seats/Student Tickets for this? I've no idea if they will since it's a limited run and a panto, but the combination of Charlie, Emma and the chance to see La Paige is enough to entice me out of my panto dry spell and get myself a good dose of Dick this Xmas. I recall the monkey saying they put some performances up for GILT last year, so I may just have to wait for that if no other discounts are to be had, the prices are rather eye-watering for a student and let's be honest the balcony is no place to be if I want a good view of Mr. Stemp's Dick.

I would not put money on it as I guess it is such a money spinner, the limited engagement and star billing. I would think you will need to pay top dollar for a good look at Charlie's dick.

Have managed to fit Dick in on my Christmas London visit as have managed to slip Dick in on Tuesday afternoon between An American in Paris on Mon night and Everyone's talking about Jamie on Tues night . Wouldn't want to deprive myself of Dick.

Chqrlie has replied to someone on twitter saying he will be doing the whole run of the show before going over to Dolly! Which is crazy considering there is a very smal window for rehearsals!

I think I saw Baz reply to someone saying that Charlie's rehearsaing Hello Dolly before he starts Dick, then getting 5 days to recap everything between Dick ending and his opening night on Broadway. It's going to be a very busy time for him!

Well if Charlie's Dick is anything like Natasha's Cinderella last year he wont have much to do other than be the butt of Julian Clary's jokes!
