Obligatory dream casting of Louise Dearman. I was thinking the exact same thing. And it's a limited run, which would work in her favor! |

Listening to the OCR. Gorgeous stuff! It’s the best score in the last 20 years IMO |

I’m unfamiliar with this show, so I searched the score on Spotify and i’m already crying after just two songs! I’m definitely getting tickets to this.

Rebecca sang a song from this when she was a guest at Rachel Tucker’s concert in Cardiff about two years ago. I don’t remember it much but I remember she sounded great!

She sang that when she was a guest at Jon Robyns’ concert at The Other Palace a while back. It’s a minor character’s song, but I think she’d sing Francesca beautifully too |

Caroline Sheen or Rebecca Trehearn, please, thank you and goodbye Was thinking of Rebecca just now! Reading the Variety review, their complaint was the leads were cast too young. They're supposed to be middle age, aren't they? |

Rebecca T would be perfect for this.
My initial thought was Caroline Sheen actually- her stock being quite high currently after all the publicity she got for 9-5.
My guess is they will go with the obligatory casting the leads on the younger side. I guess as long as she looks like she is old enough to have her two kids it will be fine.

I wonder if they'll still do the nude scene, with it being such an intimate venue?

You might have a shock! This is the female lead getting up naked out of a bath tub. |

How are we five pages into this discussion, with the very second post being a frank admission from Mr B that he's spelled the theatre name wrong, without anyone fixing the heading? It would be super duper cool if some kind mod or other could see their way clear to removing that rogue R.....  |
