That's the correct answer, but best wait for Buddyvic to confirm, as he was the one who posted the answer.

New forum for new things! Is anyone up for a Theatre related quiz? If you answer correctly you get to post a question. Please wait for the questioner to confirm the answer, I think by quoting the first person to answer correctly, they will then be notified to know to post their own question. Which is the only theatre in the West End to stand entirely alone? Not connected to any other building in any way!And GO! I'll be back in a couple of hours! Best thread on the new website. One doffs ones hat.
Nicholas is going to have to go some to win post of the year this year.

It was indeed the ill-fated Carrie! So the RSC has never had a Broadway show from the Shakespeare's canon? |

It was indeed the ill-fated Carrie! So the RSC has never had a Broadway show from the Shakespeare's canon? That is a good question. (And since it isn't actually a quiz question, I googled it.) The last time the RSC had a Shakespeare show on Broadway was 1996. A Midsummer Night's Dream, with Desmond Barrit. There were a couple others as well. Link here: www.playbillvault.com/Person/Detail/1919/The-Royal-Shakespeare-CompanyEr... does this call into question the last answer? Or was this "an international tour" more than a transfer? |

If you'll last answer does get confirmed, yes it does I am afraid.
So we need someone to give us a definitive question now?

If you don't mind me butting in, a question for you...
This actor appeared in The Alchemist for the RSC (1990s) under his old name, but as part of a Spamalot tour in 2015 under his new name.
Who is it?

Er, doesn't the person who gets the answer of the previous question correct (ie me, and I bloody didn't cheat) get to set the next question?
So, ignoring the question above
What was the first west end production I saw? Clue? Twas summer '91, a musical and the first few lines of spoken dialogue are taken from a play currently starring everyone's favourite black and white Nazi?

No, I saw it back then too, in London (Ann Crumb's understudy was on and was fantastic!) and subsequently on Broadway, and can be considered a fan of the show. Also saw it at the Menier (a poor production by comparison, I thought...) So can't claim to have cheated, no.
