Tammy Faye would be a perfect fit for the Duke Of York’s in spring Surely they'd want a potentially open ended run rather than a limited run? |

This is going to sound slightly insane but I wonder if My Neighbour Totoro could go to Drury Lane? The reason I'm suggesting this is because Drury Lane has a flexible auditorium so it can change its layout to suit different shows.

It's booking until June 2023 but I'm not sure if it'll run longer than that, perhaps to September 2023 at a push. |

I’d have thought Frozen was here for the long haul tbh.
Is Jagged Little Pill anywhere in the cards for us over here?

The advantage Frozen has is Drury Lane isn't as in demand as the more mid sized theatres. Needs a big crowd pleaser show to fill it.

Here's the video that demonstrates the flexibility of Drury Lane, it's about 5 minutes in:
That means it's possible to put a show like Totoro into Drury Lane.

Are there any good plays yet to be announced that people can maybe give us a hint about? Trying to make a few plans for next year!

There are several shows I'm interested in that look like they could possibly be transferring to London this year. Any rumours about any of these?
Bedknobs and Broomsticks
Identical
The Osmonds
The Book Thief
Tammy Faye
The Time Traveler’s Wife (sounds like announcement is coming)
Also, any star vehicles coming this spring or summer (play or musical)?

Funny you say that, I saw this posted a little while ago and thought exactly the same RE The Witches! |

Heard murmurings that Elliott and Harper productions are working on a Sweet Charity revival. Anyone know any further details. We only had it in London in 2019 so maybe a non London staging?
