Starlight Express Aspects of Love Chess Martin Guerre Our House
All done big budget and scaled up, rather than the scaled down versions they all became. The original productions of all of these were epic.

Mame I wonder if it hasn't been revived because of the main role, I think Catherine Zeta Jones would be good as Mame if they wanted a name, im struggling to think of a theatre actor who could do it who is in their 40s or 50s Ruthie Henshall. Erm....Sally Ann Triplett alert! She'd be awesome.

The problem with Mame is that everyone would be better for Vera - besides, they would cast a star for this

A Little Night Music. With a big orchestra The Alex Parker's concert was glorious, huge orchestra and outstanding cast. I'll never forget Joanna Riding's Charlotte. If they revive it I want that cast!!

Beauty and the Beast Legally Blonde (I know it's going on tour next year, but I'd love to see it return to London) Rock of Ages Xanadu (pretty please with cherries on top!) Memphis (ditto) Has a Legally Blonde tour been announced? Who's producing it?

I know it has a lot of kids involved but I'd love to see a proper production on The Music Man. Two very dated productions I'd love to see The Desert Song and Summer Song (music of Dvorak's New World Symphony.) I did Summer song as an amateur and fell in love with the show.

After thinking about this recently I'd love to see productions of the following;
• Gentlemen Prefer Blondes • Hedwig and the Angry Inch (Whatever happened to that transfer?) • My Fair Lady • Fiddler on the Roof • Assassins • Beauty and the Beast • The Little Mermaid
