Apologies if I've missed it but do we know when London press night is? 27 November 2024, 28 November 2024, 29 November 2024, 30 November 2024, 1 December 2024, 4 December 2024 and 5 December 2024
*Under Embargo until 00:00 on 5 December 2024
I assume that this is meant to mean 00:00 on 6 December if press are still invited on 05 December - midnight can cause confusion sometimes....

Thanks. Would that make 5/12 Gala night or similar? Also any idea when cast would be announced?

Def an improvement over Anna Wintour;)
I saw Vanessa Williams live at Carnegie Hall ages ago. She is stunning.

Well there's some well know theatre performers in there who are very talented. I'm not sure what the issue is.
Why when a cast is announced and it's got some lesser known names in there is it met with derision and some kind of attitude they aren't gonna be good or the show is going to be worse? If every casting decision was a big well known name everyone wants then how would we ever get any new theatre stars emerging? You know, all the big stars started somewhere and got a big break that led them to how successful and well received they are now.

Booked for London last night as I’ve wanted to see Vanessa Williams on stage for years. And in a role similar to Wilhelmina, and getting to sing - I’ll be in heaven with the devil.

But like, Tosh as who? He's not gonna be Stanley Tucci and Andy's boyfriend is such a wet part like, what's the point? Unless they inexplicably give the boyfriend a song that allows riffing I simply don't see the point 😂

Unless they inexplicably give the boyfriend a song that allows riffing I simply don't see the point 😂 I do wonder what part it might be! I’m sure he’d try his best to make it his own and only do something he’d really want - guess we’ll have to wait and see 👍🏻 I’m here for all the riffs!

The prior tweet was regarding 'Slave Play' so maybe that's coming too. But Chichester is also being announced tomorrow, so he's got that on his mind no doubt...
