Torquay is a silly venue. Very limited. 5 or 6 tiny dressing rooms. You often have to hire in portacabin to turn into a band pit and another for ensemble dressing space. The vibe very much feels like ATG have anything to do with it.

The Princess Theatre has posted a video of the curtain call to Instagram, however it’s all done in front of the front cloth and doesn’t raise for the final appearance of Chitty and her “bow” unlike the other venues I’ve seen. Presuming the stage is just too small to have the full cast and the car together!

Does the car even fly in the Princess Theatre?

The Princess Theatre also put on TikTok that the show had 6x portacabins set up outside for dressing rooms and storage with a Paul Matthew truck being a quick change area. Also one of the portacabins was the band “pit”!

A very interesting review of the Torquay production on the latest Musical Talk podcast... She really didn't like it "It was like an A-Level production"... Well worth a listen!

Well if it was in Torquay she saw it in it is basically an A Level production. I will really want to see the set of Sister Act in that theatre when it visits there (though it does appear to look fine in some of the smaller venues the production has visited). I know the show appeared to change a few things when it visited Belfast because of the size of the Grand Opera House but it definitely has a lot more room than the Princess Theatre.
