Rachel and Adam Schlesinger (her co-songwriter and music producer) - songs from Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, stand-up, and some of her older songs too. Tickets on sale 10am Friday April 12, or tomorrow if you've got the presale link.
Edit: Presale is through the LW Theatres usual presale mailing list or via this link:

I've got to admit I'm a bit disappointed! I was hoping it would be more like the live shows they did last year and next month at Radio City with the whole cast.

Nooooo! That's too soon, I don't have any free time until July.  |

I loved the live show on Netflix and was so hoping for a longer version of that. I suppose it was difficult to get all of them over to London. |

Well I got a stalls seat when booking opened, but half an hour after the presale started it looks like almost all the tickets are sold! It did seem that they had held some back for the general release tomorrow, but I didn't expect it to sell quite so well!

It didn't look like they held seats back when i logged in, but admittedly i was more focused on buying my own tickets... Surely she'll add a matinee or something now? Maybe if she does they'd have more budget to bring some of the other cast over? I'd love to see Donna Lynne Champion!

If anyone’s going to Rachel’s concerts at the Palladium today or tomorrow, hope you have an amazing time! Wish I could have made it, hopefully next time she’s here.

Last nights concert was just absolutely joyous - plenty of opportunities for the Bad Audience thread too, and i think by the end Rachel was getting a little pissed off at the constant shouting, but it was still wonderful regardless. I shan't post too much yet to avoid spoilers for anyone going tonight, but for fans of the show it was a wonderful night.

I had such a great time at last night’s concert. So much fun. The shouting out did get slightly tedious and from reports I’ve seen I think I was lucky to be in the Grand Circle where, at least in my area, no-one was too “over-enthusiastic”. I’ll post more after tonight’s show in case anyone is going and doesn’t want to be spoiled.

Sadly, Adam Schlesinger has passed away due to health complications related to Coronavirus. A real loss for the world of songwriting.

Sadly, Adam Schlesinger has passed away due to health complications related to Coronavirus. A real loss for the world of songwriting. I was so sad to read this last night. I also had no idea he was in Fountains of Wayne or had written some of the excellent NPH numbers at the Tonys. "It's Not Just For Gays Anymore" is sidesplittingly funny. What a talent gone far too soon. |

Not sure if there is already a thread for this programme but I've just discovered it on Netflix.
So is it wrong that I am really enjoying this?

Yes we do have a thread somewhere and some other board members who are fans. It’s brilliant! Rachel Bloom is a genius. So poignant and funny at the same time, and such complex characters who aren’t perfect but you still want to root for them.
It’s just called Crazy Ex-Girlfriend though, there’s no My in the title!

Season 1 is perfect, it declines afterwards but there are some really brilliant songs

Season 1 is perfect, it declines afterwards but there are some really brilliant songs I couldn’t disagree with that more! The show becomes so much more as it goes on and Rebecca’s mental health journey comes to light. You’re entitled to your opinion of course though! |

Quick revival of this thread to point out that iall four seasons of this are now on ITVX, so if you didn't catch it on Netflix it's now more widely available.
It remains one of my favourite series of the last few years, there are songs that I still play out of context from the series, so would recommend this wholeheartedly.
Annoyingly I have a NYC trip coming up, mainly to see Here We Are, and Rachel Bloom has just extended her one-person show but I'm already booked up for every evening...
