That's an absolute bargain.
Was going to wait for the CD but for that price I will download it now.

Are they selling physical copies of the CD at the Garrick now? The show's Facebook and Twitter is giving some away in a competition.

Went to the matinee today. Front row thanks to the Lottery (a phone call offer as there was a seat untaken). Close, but a great view despite the high stage.
Searched by the same doorman as last time. He likes to be thorough.
Hadn’t planned to go again but decided I wanted to see it before it closed (final week). All the leads were on and the house was pretty full.
As funny as usual. The guy next to me was in hysterics throughout.
If anyone can make closing night (I can’t) a report would be welcome.

Devastated I can’t be there Saturday, I imagine a muck-up matinee for a show like this would be side-splitting 😁

is there a brochure out? I went early on in the run and all I got was a program.

Yes, if I remember correctly they're £8 each (special £10 offer for both brochure and programme). |

The £10 special offer for souvenir brochure and programme has ended. The brochure is now available on its own for £6

They've run out of programmes - there's only brochures left. Looks like I'm gonna have to try and get a programme for it from ebay!

Last day today.
Very sad but it's had a very successful run.

So much fun at the muck up mat.
The "walk this way" scene was ad libbed with doing a voice as well as the walk.
The horses are now called Black and Decker and Cory is generally on fire with extra bits thrown in like doing the floss in the "transylvania mania" dance. Brilliant stuff.
Lovely to see Ross Noble watching too.

Evening show is so much fun.
Hilarity and ad libbing all the time, especially in "together again"
Cory doing an whispy "walk this way"
Hadley "you wouldn't know he was an astmatic would you"
Cory "ass who?"
Hadley "now you know we are in a Mel Brookes show"
Cory "well, for the next one and a half hours at least"
Hadley cracks up
Cory "well maybe two..."
Lovely heartfelt speech from Hadley at the end and lots of tears onstage and off.
Audience were absolutely magnificent too. I will really miss this show.

The "walk this way" scene has been ad-libbed for months, and Cory doing the Floss is also now an oldie. Sometimes Summer would join in.

Ah I didn't realise.
Were there any changes you noticed?

I rather got the impression they were "scripted ad-libs" in Walk This Way, which is rather the rage now. Or at least they'd tested the material and used the same stuff each time.
I'm sure they'd have gone all out for the final two shows. There was lots of stuff about "breaking the fourth wall" at the matinee earlier in the week.

The matinee and evening "ad libs" were totally different though.

Nope, the "Walk This Way" section was different every time I saw the show - which was lots! It definitely wasn't scripted in any way, as Cory and Hadley were in competition to see who could make the other corpse. |
