What shows could the Open Air Theatre do in the future?

I'd love to see Starlight there but I'd be worried with even a hint of rain.

I missed so much during my lost years.  I was a total wreck.

Happy to say I'm in full recovery and the prognosis is excellent. I only have to play golf once a week now.

I more just selfishly want a revival of it really but it possibly could work.

The Sound of Music settings are very much open to interpretation, but My Fair Lady you've got Higgins' study, Eliza's bedroom, The Embassy.... how does that uniquely lend itself to an open air production?  It kind of ruins the few moments when you do need to go outside, like the Ascot Gavotte reveal.

im surprised youre taking it so literal. On The Town and Seven Brides had plenty of indoor scenes and worked fine. The show doesnt need to be permanently set outside, more just suit an outdoor space and can work in daylight without lighting effects etc (i cant imagine something like Phantom working there for example).

With regards to new work, theres lots of fringe venues that can do that. Regents Park and Chichester are probably the best options for producing quality revivals of classic shows, without them we wouldnt get to see many as many classics

Maybe people are thinking less "this musical should be done in a uniquely outdoor space", and more "this musical deserves a brilliant, large-scale, and lovingly directed revival". It's hard to think of anyone with better space and skill for that in London than Timothy Sheader.

lol i know what the question was as i asked it. But to suit the unique setting doesnt mean the whole show should be set outside

oh if thats the case ill be skipping Open Air next year then
