Gosh she's looks pale there! Her skin looks as grey as the background of your post. Gosh I've just realized Sheridan looks purple in this  |

I think Sheridan's works though, as there's a purple hue applied to the whole image, like a filter. I think Natasha just stands out as looking unwell in hers!

I've always thought the Funny Girl artwork was pretty dire but I prefer natashas. its more character appropriate and resembles the famous scene from.the movie.
Sheridan one is just sheridan in front of a mirror

I just thought Natasha's poster resembled an old black & white photo from the 30's that had been colourised. Thought it was the look they were going for.

I think she looks stunning in that photo. It fits the time of the show - I actually prefer the style of it to Sheridans by far. Really excited for this tour!

Personally I think that Natasha is a lovely looking girl, and it's certainly a great decision to finally give her her own imagery, but the ashen edit that's been applied doesn't do her many favours.  Can we all take a moment to appreciate the near miss we could've had, from the original artwork that first appeared for this way back in 2015?  Phew. |

I was bored at lunchtime so having a nose on the WMC's website and it's pretty much sold out in the Stalls and Circle for a lot of nights here in Cardiff (a fair bit in the upper circle for week nights) nice to see it doing so well!

Just found this, Heather Headley in a school production of Funny Girl. For a school girl, she played this part brilliantly, great set of lungs

Sorry if this has already been stated but without trawling back through will Sheridan & Natasha split at the same venues or do a venue each if you know what I mean. And if Sheridan is sick do we get Natasha?

And if Sheridan is sick do we get Natasha? They're doing completely separate dates - schedule on the show website: www.funnygirlthemusical.co.uk/uk-tour/ |

Isn't there some venues where Sheridan isn't doing every performance? Or did I made that up in my head?
Like will Natasha be at every venue as a standby for Sheridans dates, or will it be whoever is understudying the role if Sheridan takes off?

Sheridan isn't doing the Wendesday matinee in Cardiff because there is a Wednesday and Thursday matinee and I assume this is the same in all the venues. No idea who will go on that day though. |

This is a guess, but I imagine that there will be an Understudy/Standby/Alternate on the tour who will cover any of Sheridan/Natasha's scheduled absences, plus any illness. I can't see Natasha covering Sheridan's days off.

It seems to be usual now for leads in musical tours not to commit to the whole tour (of say a year) I assume, in case more lucrative TV work comes along. So leads get changed mid tour - like the recent Chitty tour for example.
But I have never known for a tour to have 2 alternating sets of 2 leads in this manner. I assume this was done to accommodate Sheridan in some way - either to give her weeks off to rest - or more likely fit in filming another TV drama. But why a different leading man as well? Why didn't Darius do the whole tour? I can only assume he did not want to work with Sheridan again or her with him - it can be the only explanation. Is Chris Peluso on a retainer for the weeks he does not perform? He cannot do other work in those odd weeks when Natasha is performing. The whole thing seems odd.
It must be a nightmare for producers with programmes and publicity.

Thanks but sold out on ATG, hence why I was asking here. Apologies, didn't realise it was sold out online. There doesn't appear to be any agency allocation, but I would give the ATG's Contact Centre a call on 0844 871 3019 in case they've got any holds or returns they can sell you. |

Why not have a birthday weekend away and go.and see the show at one of the other venues. She is going to be in quite a few places. |

It must be a nightmare for producers with programmes and publicity. I read in a newspaper that the producers were making sure Sheridan wasn't onstage for over 3 weeks at a time (or something similar) to make sure she isn't over worked or stressed again. I can only presume that Darius is a name for the venues that Sheridan isn't performing at and maybe having Chris play with Sheridan spices things up so for people seeing the show again, they don't just see the same leads as london? |
