You beat me too it! First time the poor girl has been on in weeks, maybe Ruth will make an appearance? 😎 how do you know? Like has it been announced? About Karen being on for both shows today? She told me herself on twitter  (Marisha is on holiday and today is a scheduled Amber holiday I believe) |

Karen was on when I saw the matinee on Saturday. Don't know whether Amber was off ill or whether only some of her holiday was cancelled though. |

It would be easier to establish the meaning of life than predict who will play Effie from one show to the next!

Was my first time seeing Dreamgirls and I was blown away by her voice. Never before have I felt the need to give three standing ovations during one show before (as did majority of the audience) |

Seems like she's finally started to drop her hit and miss reputation, you go Karen! I'll also second the fact she's my favourite Effie!

Marisha has just tweeted that she's on tonight as Effie straight from holiday.... I don't like the way marisha comes across on twitter. She's very self promoting and She retweets everything that mentions her. She's the only main Effie I've not seen and from the videos I've seen it looks like she goes over the top with the screeching but want to see her myself to judge. She doesn't come across as a team player. In it for herself. |

As an actress you are a salesperson of sorts and she's doing it in good fun. She's retweeting articles and mentions because the authors like that. I think we should give her the benefit of the doubt. As Amber is never on, she is saving the day of sorts...

Is Amber on official holiday at the moment or just missing?

Just an FYI, the front row lottery on TodayTix has gone from £15 to £20. Could've sworn it was £15 when I entered yesterday but I am relatively new to TodayTix so is this something they do when demand is high or it's the 'holidays' or is this now a permanent change do we reckon?

I would imagine it's permanent, and I'm not surprised to be honest. Most Rush/Lottery seem to be around the £20 mark, which I think is still a reasonable price! I'm not sure when the change happen, but I noticed that it was £20 when I entered yesterday. |

The lottery was still £15 on Saturday, so it must have gone up beginning of this week then. I'm equally not surprised it's gone up at all, was expecting this to happen at some point.

Which date is Ambers last show? I think booking for that night is probably the best chance of seeing Ms Riley at this rate so i would like to know...
