Breakfast at Tiffany's - UK Tour and Theatre Royal Haymarket

It's got terrible reviews- shock horror!

It seems it's only reason to exist is so the Daily mail can do an article on what Ms Lott wears every day coming and going.

Neither of these two are losers - they are both great in their own ways. How can they be losers when they are both headlining West End shows? Pixie is a good signed and Sheridan is an amazing actress.

Really surprised at the poor response from public and critics alike. Thought this would be a good play with a good cast. Is this Nikolai Foster's debut show in the West End?

I can't really see it if I'm honest, Katherine Kelly is an amazing actress though. I'd love to see her do a play or even a musical for a fact considering she can see.

For people who have seen the set, is it good? It looked quite good for a touring show with changing backdrops etc. Not to keen of Matthew Wright's sets after seeing the set he created for Legally Blonde but loved his costumes on Funny Girl. Be interesting to see his set for Sister Act

Have I been in an alternate universe or did this theatre do this play with basically the same poster within the last couple of years?

Ahh. Gawd was it that long ago?
Is this the same production sans Friel?

Oh my. I really wanted to like it but I just didn't. It's a bit all over the place really. And that's just Pixie's accent!

The play is really just a series of quick sketches chock-a-block full of bad accents. Don't like this storyline? Don't worry, there's another one zipping along in a minute. Ooh, here's a sad bit. Whoops. There it goes. Now here's another bit where Holly is just so car-razy.

Matt Barber is a delightful presence but he's a bit lumbered with having to carry the show by constantly telling the audience what's happening. Plus he see-saws between gay and straight with each scene. It's hard to keep up. So to speak.

And Pixie? Oh dear. I'm sure she's just a sweetheart. She looks smashing and sings so nicely but an actress she ain't. She's just way too nice for the part. Her accent veers wildly between Katharine Hepburn and Reba McEntire via Zsa Zsa Gabor (dahlink!). I was hoping for a few more police officers in the show to see if she would have slapped any of 'em. It's almost like she was trying to audition for Blanche DuBois and Sally Bowles at the same time but got stuck with the Holly Golightly part and not knowing *quite* what to do with it so wings it with the original double audition piece all the same. She might as well have gone on stage with the script in her hand for all the good memorising it did for her. All in all, you come away from it wondering how the hell this dreadfully irritating woman had this effect on so many people.

To be honest, if I was Fred, I'd have pushed her off the Brooklyn Bridge when I got the chance. Heck, if I'd seen this in New York, I might have thrown myself off it afterwards.

I paid £6 in previews, so have these gone up £2 now?

Which I still thought was a rip off and only made bearable by me paying £15 for my ticket.

It's a different production and different adaptation as the Friel one. Although when that production went to NY it used this adaptation. I think this production also uses the same composer even if the music is different.

I'm sure my programme was £6 last night.

Perhaps it was a combination of my cut glass cheekbones, wicked wit and irresistible modesty that made them knock £2 off the price.
