I want the following in London Jekyll and Hyde (finally) Aida Kiss of the Spiderwoman Mame Me and My Girl Come From Away Newsies You might be in luck - in the programme notes for Chess, there was an interview with Tim Rice in which he suggested that he wanted Aida to be the Coliseum summer musical next year.

That'll cause some confusion no doubt!

Aida is such an amazing show. Saw it three times on Broadway - the musical I mean!

Now, we have The Rink, I'd be up for a season of the lesser known Kander and ebb - Kiss of the Spiderwoman, Steel Pier, Curtains, and The Visit - all in rep.
And elsewhere, I'd love a Ragtime to match the scale of the Broadway show....darn that was powerful.

I want the following in London Jekyll and Hyde (finally)Aida Kiss of the Spiderwoman Mame Me and My Girl Come From Away Newsies At his concert in Manchester Nov 2016 Frank Wildhorn said that Jekyll and Hyde was “very likely” to be in the WE in 2017 and that Bonnie and Clyde was a dead cert for early 2018. So much for Frank’s predictions then!

I want a big production of Oklahoma, like the National/Jackman production revived, even for a limited run. That musical holds a special place in my heart, so to see that live in a professional production would be amazing for me.

I would love to see HEDWIG (definitely) legally blonde and beauty and the beast (London or tour shocked they didn't bring it back with the release of the new film would have made sense to revive or tour it). I was thinking about Beauty & the Beast only yesterday, and was wondering whether there were any talks to revive the canned prospective tour that was booked in. I would personally love to see: • Beauty and the Beast • The Little Mermaid (though unrealistic) • Gypsy w/ Imelda • London Road • Spring Awakening (from the Hope Mill) Same here would also love to see the little mermaid come over I think it would do well on tour, it would be a perfect Christmas musical at the WMC as we normally get the family orientated ones I wonder what they have lined up for xmas 2019. also shocked with all the beauty and the beast merch sold at the Disney store over the past year you'd have thought Disney would have thought about brining this one out again. I would happily welcome BATB as our XMAS show next year.

The Hunting of the Snark.
The 1991 staging was phenomenal and way ahead of its time. The songs are simply glorious.

Couldn’t understand why it didn’t do better over here but The Drowsy Chaperone is a great show would love to see another production loved the west end production ... and the smaller upstairs at the gate house production with soibhan McCarthy was wonderful too

If not previously mentioned, how about a revival of Parade.
The Donmar production was one of the best things I have severer seen and I see A LOT of theatre.
To this day I till get goosebumps when I tell anyone about it.

You know you're getting old when you look down this list and for practically every one you think 'Wasn't that at the Donmar/Union/Bridewell a couple of years ago?' and realise it was 15 years ago.
I am surprised though that there has never, as far as I know, been a London revival of Mame. Obviously it needs a star in the lead surely there's someone who has just left a soap or something who would like a crack at it

I'd really love to see a revival of Parade.
Considering its surprising success on broadway, I'd love them to transfer the recent broadway revival here.
