Currently reading this play in my free time at the moment, really enjoying it.
I think that it's time for a West End revival? It's not been in London since 2010 and there could be quite a good cast for it?
I know now it would never happen but, in an ideal world of casting anyone you wanted, Imelda Staunton and Jim Carter would make great Kate and Joe Keeler respectively!

I saw this a couple of years ago at Regents Park. I liked it though it was a fairly low key cast - no Jim or Imelda I'm afraid. My main memory of it is the actors having to go off twice due to rain.

The 2010 revival is one of the best things I've seen. Really recommend it on Digital Theatre.

Sydney Theatre Company is currently staging a brilliant production of this. Although I guess it's a little far for most of you for a night out.  Plus it's completely sold out. |

Saw both the 2010 production and Regents Park, the former was brilliant, but worked quite well in the Open Air, as the play is set in the garden, so perfect for the park.

I concur with everyone else saying the 2010 production was ace. I wish I'd seen it live, watching it on Digital Theatre was wonderful. Would love to see a revival. Unfortunately, Kingston is a bit too far away for me to get to!

I saw the 2010 production and it's still so fresh in my memory that I'm staggered that it was that long ago!
