The clip WOS posted on their YouTube wasn't great. Seemed a lot of shouting and singing over eachother. I mean for some of us that have seen this sober, that’s not a bad summation of the show! Haha. I mean, it may work in context but as a promotional thing I was no better informed or sold to it 🤣 |

I was interested as a potential for our NYC visit, but the more clips I watched, coupled with hearing that it wouldn’t be long til its London bow (back in late March) made us rethink. It looks like a cool way to spend 90 minutes if enough alcohol has been consumed and theres nothing better to see. Its still just another tribute show, albeit with interesting stuff going on in the foreground.

I really thought it had been announced before it was going to the Arts. If so, surely Choir of Man would have to announce closure first |

It’s a really bonkers show. Loud, brash and in your face, and really stupid (in a good way). In terms of comedy style the most closely I can compare it to would be Police Cops

Hopefully this will go somewhere like the Leicester Square theatre.

As Michael Harrison is producing, it will surely end up in a decent West End theatre.

Probably not, but then that's only going to be about 52 adults and a goat. |

In fairness, say under 35 year olds, there might be a higher percentage who haven't seen it. I've got friends late 20s/early 30s and always surprised at what they haven't seen (that you assume everyone has)

With Michael Harrison involved, it's not likely to go to somewhere like the Leicester Square Theatre.
My guess is somewhere like the Trafalgar,

I was over exaggerating obviously. I think you'll have needed to have seen it to 'get' this show. |

For me though, with Titanic being one of my favourite films of all time, and also being a huge Celine Dion fan, it was a perfect mashup. |

TodayTix says that it's gonna be at the Park Theatre, off-West End.

Brilliant! Excellent spot. But what a strange choice of venue. |

I'm not sure that Park was listed as an SOLT venue when I last checked but it certainly is now. solt.co.uk/solt-venues/ |

I'll be amazed if this is accurate.

Its not the right venue for it to have any kind of run - if it's park we get 12 weeks and done max

Will Hugh Jackman be in it as he's now not doing the Palladium Panto? Another rumour that went round these boards. Being fair I think we saw where that rumour got confused as he's actually in a film reimagining of Robin Hood with Jodie Comer - I think someone just got their wires crossed/the wrong end of the stick. |
