Julie has just started a series of 5 shows at the Crazy Coqs with special guests. Last night guests were Laura Pitt-Pulford and Katie Brayben. Great venue and Julie is always fun but the show lasted just 1 hour 15 minutes (including a 15 minute interval after half an hour). They say that you should always leave your audience wanting more but for £31.50 this was pretty poor value and a criminal waste of poor Laura who sat in the audience for all but the 6 minutes she was on stage.

We are there on Saturday night. 75 minutes is appalling. Julie played for almost 2 hours at St James Theatre last year.

That's including the interval - 60 minutes only of singing/chat!

Have been to quite a few cabaret thingies that run around the 75 min mark, but no with an interval! I understand Julie has a 4 piece band and guests for this run. Sounds like a lot of effort for such a short performance.
I went to a launch of Julie's second album a few years ago. It was a paid ticketed event, not a freebie promo. It lasted around 45mins straight through. She performed (beautifully) the tracks in order and that was it. I did feel more than a bit short changed that night!
