I'd hope so. I hope they celebrate this closing as well as the new one coming in rather than just celebrating the new one.

It’s a black armbands and copious use of hankies job...to close the original is one of the worst booking decisions ever imo....there’s a grief that can’t be spoken...💔

Row A of the Dress Circle - it had to be done! Throw in the original orchestrations (including those famous Yamaha DX7s!) whilst your at it... It’s going to be emotional! But I do wonder if it will be acknowledged, or will there be a pop of confetti and that’s it - job done? It has been somewhat of a controversial decision, it does make you wonder whether or not Camack will appear, flanked by the Original writers, or will we all be crying into our G&Ts by 10.30pm?

A million times yes. Squared. I'd say CM is likely to make an appearance, loves an excuse to get up on stage. Although, speechs and a todo does imply recognition that the show is closing which could put the "longest running"-title into jeopardy.

Sadly I couldn't do the weekend of the final show, so I'm going the week before to see the original one last time. On the plus side, I was able to get the two front row stalls seats behind the conductor.

Today Amara and Jessica are leaving which would have been the cast change day if everything that is happening wasn't happening.

When I booked for the last one I only managed front row of Upper Circle which in fairness isnt that bad. I am sitting in the seat next to the very first one that I went to. I didn't realise until after I booked because I was just trying to book a seat. So my number 1 was 5th Nov 2015 AA2 UC and number 150 will be the last one 😭.

I was there today and the understudy, Hannah Lawson, said they're bringing someone back to play Cosette but didn't say who. I think Charlotte Kennedy would make sense as she's the most recent Cosette, unless she's busy?

It was good change to see a song that highlighted the ensemble & swings not just the leads.

why was the old Enjolras at WEL, don't they always have a Castchange before WEL? This time not because of the theatre change?
