I'm very surprise they haven't given Kimmy Edwards any U/S roles. I thought she was brilliant when i saw her in both Memphis and Ghost

I will admit the video doesn't do them justice. They were a lot better live in the plaza. My view never judge a cast by a video/audio. Go and see them at the show then past judgement.

For example Bradley Jaden, currently Enjorlas in Les Mis, is in my opinion an incredible actor and I think he is going to be a real star in the future, he was an understudy for Shrek at Drury Lane and for Sam in Ghost UK Tour. I saw him understudy Carl in Ghost and he really surprised me as I had seen the lead and Bradley brought so much more life to such a nothing role. I would have loved to see him as Sam as some lucky people did on the tour I remember seeing Bradley as shrek and loved his voice. Actually preferred him over the lead. This was same in ghost u/s Carl. Chuffed for him as Enjolras esp he was 2 u/s as well

Are all members of the Ensemble transferring with this to the savoy? Some tweets make me think they are not. The official website seems to think it will be a one-woman show, given Sheridan is the only person listed on the cast page at the moment - they really will have a problem if she is off then! ;-) www.funnygirlthemusical.co.uk/cast-creative/No, Not all members of the ensemble are transferring to the savoy eg Stuart is going into Harry Potter at the Palace

Look, perhaps there is a different benchmark for performers but millions of people, including many of us reading this have had the devastating news that a family member has cancer but have had to carry on with their job . The news itself was not, in my case, considered to be a reason to take time off. The illness was. If hearing such news prevents a performer from giving their best performance then it's a no brainer. Don't go on. End of. No-one with an ounce of compassion will critisise you for it. But we don't need to see the whole thing played out on line. This is Sheridan's problem. Hallelujah BurlyBeaR, can I get an Amen? Abs agreed with this, I know this sounds horrible but we all affected some way or another and do people care if it our family member. Nope. if that happen to me again i would be told to take it as leave.
