Oh you’ve so gotten my hopes up now, crossing my fingers that this plays through (not that I don’t trust you, but you can never be too careful when it comes to matters as serious as Bette coming to London)

If this is true then fabulous, but forgive me for not getting over-excited just yet!

Holy sh*t this is exciting! I am devastated by BOOH closing but this is pretty much a dream replacement. Getting to see Bette Midler live would be a dream.
Edit: Actually now that I think about it, I saw a tweet last night about an surprise after BOOH curtain today & i assumed it could be a tour; but maybe it’s that when they’ll announce this?

Amazing! Amazing theatre for it too! But an absolute barn! Hoping for a limited run so it sells well.

If it's true better start training, it's going to be a scrum.

My guess is 8 weeks in the Dominion. From first week July to first week Sept? And ticket prices in the £1000s 😂😂

Source? why not right after Bat closes? It’d be too late notice now for it to suddenly go there. Also, I feel like summer is a better season for a limited run. Start of year is kinda dead

It’s gonna be VERY expensive. Most of the stalls are premium.. start saving those pennies.

Source? why not right after Bat closes? I’m not gonna name my source am I? For goodness sake. Also they have to, you know, cast it.. rehearse it, sell it, ship the set over. They might Not be able to do that in a week. Call me crazy.

Not that I was expecting it to be cheap, but I think I’ll have to be as far back as possible to afford this if that’s the case. Will still lean/slouch as much as possible if it means I can see Dolly coming down the stairs though
