Whens the Oscars? i assume aftersun means Mescal MAY have to bail on performances now I can't see the Academy going mad for Aftersun, as brilliant as I thought it was. I think it might be a bit too low-key to get big noms. Happy to be proved wrong though. When Lesley Manville had to fly over for the Oscars in 2018 while doing Long Day's Journey in the WE, I don't think she missed a performance. Flew straight out after the Saturday night performance and was back for the start of the next week.

I think Aftersun is inevitably going to be snubbed this Oscars season. Its not in the conversation as much as it should be.

The Oscars is on 12 March so Streetcar will already have finished.

Patsy Ferran is now playing Blanche.
Really sad news for Lydia. I thought she was very very good in The 47th.

An interesting choice, maybe not the first that would come to mind, really looking forward to what Patsy will bring to the role as she never disappoints, this casting makes it a must see for me and glad I already have my ticket.

Love Patsy Ferran. I would watch her read a phone book (except we don’t have those anymore!) What a shame for all concerned though…always tough when an actor has to pull out for health reasons.

I saw the email header and didn't want to click to see the change. Quite the cast change. Disappointment for Lydia, hope she's well soon.

Just got an email from the Almeida aplogizing for this. They say they will try to rebook to available dates, but on the website the entire run is sold out...

Patsy F is so NOT a Blanche -- this will be an intriguing changeover for sure: Rebecca F sticking with the tried and true.

I wasn't booked to see this originally and couldn't really see myself fitting it in but now that Patsy Ferran is in it,it is a must see for me. I hope there are returns or I can get almeida for free tickets.

Patsy Ferran has been wonderful in everything I’ve seen her in and no doubt will be here too

Oh gawd, this is going to make punting for a return exponentially harder. Also poor Lydia on multiple levels. I wish her a speedy recovery and more hit plays and films in the future.

was so impressed by Lydia in The Duchess Of Malfi and was looking forward to seeing her Blanche. Wish her a speedy recovery. This is my most highly anticipated show for the season.

That’s a shame for Lydia but I must say I’m thrilled that I’ll now be seeing Patsy Ferran. I’ve thought her fantastic every time I’ve seen her on stage.

I share this exact sentiment: Wilson is a great actress, but if a change has to happen I cannot imagine anyone better than Ferran. Especially as I cannot really imagine her in the role, so I am really excited to see how that will work, but having seen her o stage before I am still confident it cannot not work.

Very annoying but worth giving them a call, I was just able to get another ticket for January. I suspect also a better seat for the same price...

I was meant to go on the 15th so that was cancelled. Pretty quickly sent off an email suggesting 3 alternative dates, but have heard nothing back. Wonder if I should have suggested more dates...

Give them a call, the lady over the phone said that they are dealing with so many emails, it will take ages to get back to people. I was able to get my second preferred date

On the Almeida website, they states it's an injury that caused Lydia Wilson to withdraw rather than health reasons.

The OP clearly meant it seemed to be a situation that would get resolved and she'd be okay in the long-run, thankfully. Allow me to go and pick my eyes up now. They rolled out of my head when I read your comment.
