A minging nightie and mucky feet. Easy to see how Joe couldn’t resist😐
Mind you, we haven’t seen what he’s wearing yet…

You know, it's fine to re-imagine a production and change the sets, costumes, etc, however (for God's sake) don't mess with the script- there's actual dialogue from the original film- or the songs!

WTF is this production?! Is Lloyd inspiration from John Doyle’s Sweeney Todd and setting it in an insane asylum? It's a choice. Reminds me of Evita a bit... didn't Eva Peron wear a white nightie???

Norma's existential journey of discovery leads her to finally realise....you can't hair whip in a turban.

Until right at the very end when she came out is the traditional Evita costume of I remember correctly.

Yes, you can get a two-pack, one black one white from Primark. Well kept Jamie. But seriously - I'm loving that this is happening, and this way.

Is anyone going to the first preview? Me and I'm nervous. My friend is fine as she doesn't know of the musical or Norma Desmond so will be interesting to get her view.

One Instagram quip: "See if she'd only worn the turban she wouldn't have that problem!"🤪

I hear that shot is the final image of the show. She walks downstage slowly in a spotlight.. gets on her knees and throws her hair back.. blackout.

Seriously, that image, the black stage and the rumour about water being involved makes me wonder if Jamie Lloyd saw the Pussycat Dolls most recent video and said “Let’s do that”.

Is this all being set in Norma’s prison/asylum cell as flashbacks?

How I’m going to not look at this thread for an entire week is anyone’s guess, but until next Thurs evening, over and out!

This is just too funny. Is she going bring the other Pussycat Dolls on for gyrating and whipping their hair back and forth (back and forth)?

Thanks for the pic. I admire the minimalist effort in the design.

It's a pity they don't have posters.
