Just got a Priority Access email sign up from Delfont Mackintosh saying this is coming Spring 2024. Doesn't mention which theatre.

With all the recent praise for Happy Valley, wouldn’t it be great if Sarah Lancashire returned to the West End for this? Sparks would really fly for both Brian and her on stage together I would also love this! However I've heard she gets terrible stagefright so I don't expect her to do theatre again for a long time. |

I enjoyed this with Suchet & Laurie Metcalf but I wouldn't be desperate to see another production unless they have an actress of her calibre.

Still no announcement of which venue yet, which is a surprise as from the DMT+ newsletter tickets are on sale to DMT+ from 10am Wednesday, those that signed up for priority at 2PM Wednesday and general sale from 10am Thursday.

I would guess venue confirmation will be on either Tuesday or Wednesday Morning. I suspect it's the Wyndham's.

Any dates even hinted at please and thank you? Nothing hinted at in the newsletter, just the already announced Coming Spring 2024. Guessing we'll find out when they decide to announce the venue. |

Saw the Lesley Manville/Jeremy Irons one, and didn’t like it, so had zero interest in seeing this. But Patricia Clarkson is making me reconsider. She’s always great in anything she shows up in.

Patricia Clarkson is good casting for Mary Tyrone. I think her last West End appearance was in The Elephant Man with Bradley Cooper.

Had a quick look and decided I'm going to wait for offers - also I feel that I've seen this play recently and it is soooo looong - literal title lol. Not sure I want to see it again in a rush.

I've booked in the £85 stalls seats. I'm so conditioned given recent prices that they seemed like a bargain lol!
The booking email is quite annoying, don't know if it has changed recently, but just says thanks for your booking and the booking number, not the actual date and time booked. I know the etickets get sent out at a later date but just seems weird not to have the show details on the confirmation email?

How long 😱😱 I can't remember sorry - it felt very long. It was the 2018 one with Leslie Manville. Maybe 3 hours? |

Long Day's Journey is long but it's still shorter than The Iceman Cometh!

Looked online and the last one was 3 hrs 20 mins. Some shows fly by in that time. This is not one of them. I believe I read somewhere that whoever manages the O’Neill estate are very strict about no cuts being made, so expect similar.

I do like Alex Lawther, though it's a long time ahead to book.

Used the last of my much loved and much missed half price O2 theatre tokens to get a decent seat just before opening night.

Oh I’ve bitten the bullet and booked, really just to see Cox. Again I’ve booked an aisle seat just in case
