What is the rationale
Behind such a large scale and popular musical
Being shoehorned into a venue for plays
I saw this at Drury lane as directed by Rupert Goold
If I recall correctly it was a well received and anticipated production
With the highest box office advance of 15 million pounds at that time
It had a huge cast and was like a good pantomime
Why the contrast in scale?
I assume the cast is smaller etc?
Other than the 3 weeks it is running at Xmas
This revival has hardly set the box office in a panic
I doubt the advance is anywhere near 15 million
