Does anyone know what day the opening/press night is? Thanks Tuesday looks promising based on the gap in available tickets and hike in top price tickets.

So Amber basically got the role for a TV show?
Frustrating.

Genuine conversation just overheard at Theatre Cafe.
"9 to 5 is going to the Savoy isn't it?" "yeah, with Natalie McQueen" "bless her, she's better than that but there you go"

Shine Like the Sun played while I was walking to the theatre this afternoon and it made me a little angry too thinking of the casting for this.
Why couldn't lovely Amy Lennox play Doralee? She was great on tour, loved in Kinky Boots and Lazarus and has built her career from the ground up!

Well there's our answer to Amy not doing it, she has joined the cast of Holby City it's just been announced!

So a MT actress who has also built her career from the ground up and has great talent.

Actually quite bad that I assumed she was star casting given the state of musical theatre in this country. That's good news then.

Bonnie Langford joins the cast as Roz! Rather a quick turn around from 42nd St

She played the role on tour. So not a huge amount of rehearsal necessary

I feel like this will extend...Natalie McQueen has been posting about ‘another year’ with Seen Needham, who was announced today. My guess is the cast are contracted for a year?

Does anyone have front row tickets for the '9 to 5' musical in London? If so, please get in touch as I would really like to buy two seats. I'm currently planning to book a front row seat for 9 to 5. Row A is the closest to the stage currently available throughout its run but the seating plan also shows rows AA and BB further forward. Does anyone know if they are likely to be added later, or will they be sold as day seats, or not used at all ?

Cast poster is out now with Bonnie also added now to the line up. All three of them look way too young, maybe apart from Natalie. Mmmhmm.
