Lena Hall is my best guess for Norma standby on broadway. It seems more up her alley. I hear it’s Beanie… This is simply the funniest thing I've ever read on this board

This is very random, but I was walking home along the Covent Garden side of the strand tonight, having had a rubbish day and feeling a bit sorry for myself when out of no where I heard a very loud SUNSET BOULEVARD - I turned to the other side of the street and realised that I had gotten to the Savoy area at the same time as the start of act 2, so stopped for a minute and watched from afar.
It was really bizarre to see Tom walking and singing acapella (I assume the orchestra must be in his ear piece?), with tourists and people just walking past, not even turning their heads - but also really impressive! I still stand by this being one of the most impressive things on stage I've seen in a while, you could tell that every step was planned to the second.
It sounds like such a small thing, but I was having the day from hell and it totally brightened my mood tonight!

Second and last viewing today and this is easily the show of the year for me. Performances from all leads seemed a lot tighter this time round and the music really does give you goosebumps.
Completely forgot I booked the De Mille experience too. I highly recommend the Savoy Sling cocktail 👌🏻
Has it been confirmed this is going to Broadway or is it just a rumour still?

It’s about to be announced. Going early 2024 for a limited run.

Mine turned up in a couple of days. Maybe they ran out of stock again?

The site is still working... I can only go on my own experience, which was excellent. Hope your book arrives soon.

I'm literally counting down the days to seeing it again next Saturday! Rarely have I been so excited over theatre, these days!!! There was a very interesting podcast interview with David Thaxton. He gave fascinating new insights into the creative development of the show, and is also a fan of old. He saw the original production 3 Times as a teen! open.spotify.com/episode/5oYuGq3n4Ge88cjL7dzkil?si=Aa5d0wghSIKb2TGLGYFO5w

Michael Ball just talking to Nicole on his R2 show, asked her if there's going to be a cast recording. Her (hesitant) reply was "I think so"

Got around to seeing this a few weeks ago. Didn’t hate it.
Left me cold, but I’ve never like a single Lloyd production except Piaf, and that was solely down to Elena Roger.
3* - nothing special.
