Well- I’m taking back my words. This is about to be announced. A theatre is booked. I’m amazed.. but very happy- I loved this show on Broadway. Friday? Guess not!

I'll be gobsmacked if it's a play - even Dear England - as the Prince Edwards is a large theatre (1700+ seats) and in it's history it has never had a play staged there. Confirmed.

Why did the next to me start crying when she was given a newspaper then was very distractingly whimpering until the interval?!
Is this normal behaviour when once gets a newspaper?!

Was it general knowledge he was in disguise???

I’m amazed Leeds Playhouse have the rights to do this when Cameron’s one is opening next summer Is it? Is this a certainty? Hasn’t this news been doing the rounds for a couple of years? Maybe after Frozen at TRDL.

For those wanting slightly cheaper tickets, they seem to have introduced a "day rate" at £40. Pretty good considering the normal prices. Where do i find these? Couldn't see them on the website this morning.

They no longer sell the balcony at all, and have raised their minimum ticket price to 29,5 (used to be 20). And they do struggle to fill during the week. There are lots of offers floating around. The balcony is on sale for a couple of performances this week!

Apparently this Show has broken all records at the coliseum box office.

So bad, it's good. The vocals are guaranteed to blow your mind. The plot is as shaky as the set and graphics and the sound was good but not at Bat quality. Jenny O'Leary as Killer Queen was sensational, Lee Mead surprisingly good and convincing as Khashoggi. I found Ben Elton quite amusing despite his dodgy acting, but the evening brings to Elena Skye and Ian McIntosh. Audience loved it - it's clunky and the set could have done with a refresh but the music carries it. The best 2 star night out you'll enjoy this year. Oh very intriguing that Jenny was on! Was that scheduled or due to illness, do you know? I did think Brenda's voice sounded like it was going the night before. Scheduled!

What’s the anagram for the lottery code word? I’m sure I read it here, but can’t find it!

How long does it take to get to the theatre from St Pancras by tube? Google maps is telling me about half hour, does that seem about right? 19 minutes.

Anyone notice that in the visuals behind the Killer Queen during another one bites the dust has the gopher at the coliseum? And the statues are the ones on the globe?

Did the show start with the whole cast on stage rather than just Pop? This was also a change made for the post covid tour.
From Instagram stories it looks like a similar set to the pre covid tour!

At the Palace when did they stop redecorating between the parts? I remember early on loads of panels were replaced, nothing at all different now except for a couple of projections. Was that a post covid change? Saw this years ago and recently and didn’t notice any difference.

Just walked past the theatre and it’s cancelled tonight. Tonight’s performance has been cancelled for a while now. Perhaps a couple of months.

Is it the same shownas The Band? I remember seeing it at the Savoy and thought it was fun. They did a clever thing with a curtain of rain. Wasn’t that ‘Never Forget’, the other Take That musical?

Oh, excellent. If they're showing it on telly then I can probably talk about the bit I was in. I mean, not on here because if you all care you can see the bit at the end when it's on telly, but with my theatre-loving friends some of them knew I was at the theatre and wanted to know what I'd been doing and I'd signed a bloody NDA! And then others turned up in the audience...awkward. What part were you in?

I had searched for that email, but no luck! Very strange, although they sent them Over again in minutes.
