I would've said Phoenix Xmas run but realised how Last Tango is there until December. Surely it would only do a Xmas run? Not sure where It Could in London this year anyway?

Really enjoyed this last christmas at the Dominion - despite Kimberley Walsh. I'd be really happy if it returned to London this christmas, but maybe not so expensively priced.

Are any theatres other than the Phoenix (Last Tango till very early December?) empty over December? And with The Girls in the Phoenix from January I doubt they would have time to put the production in and make some money on the production. I'm guessing it must be a regional production.

Noel Coward perhaps if the Half a Sixpence transfer isn't happening for a while?

Noel Coward perhaps if the Half a Sixpence transfer isn't happening for a while? Wouldn't that be too small if they are using a set like they did for the dominion. Could be a possibility though if sixpence doesn't transfer and they downsize the set |

Glad it is coming back. It was great last time, I thought Kimberley was great and really enjoyed her performance! Hopefully West End!  |

Restricted view balcony from £1.2m, front stalls from £8.4m, plus £2.25 per ticket booking fee. Preview prices, of course. We'd be looking at £6m minimum for upper circle slips after opening night. |

Early announcement to give people time to re-mortgage their houses for a ticket. Publicity strapline for show reads - " See the Family show Elf this Christmas and put your family on the street!"

Just seen the Elf website says exciting news coming soon. "Now not insultingly overpriced!" |

I saw this last time on a comp (thank goodness) and absolutely loathed it. You couldn't pay me to watch this again.

It's touring. It's definitely playing Manchester or Blackpool.

What about Duke of Yorks for Christmas? I know productions can scale down, but going from a 2,069 seater to a 640 seater is probably a bit too small  |

I missed this last Christmas, mostly due to the off putting prices, but listening to the score recently makes me kick myself, so I'm pleased to hear this could be hitting the road. A Christmas musical feels like the campest thing ever - right up my street!

It was very entertaining so would be happy if it came back but it wasn't worth the prices it charged. I got a deal on a ticket so it made it worth it. Ben Forster was brilliant and any show that brought Jessica Martin back to London's glitzy west end was good by me.
However, they could easily scale it down a bit and it wouldn't lose much of its festive fizz.
And much as I love DJ14, one of the benefits of the show coming back is that you probably won't get Kimberly Walsh. Although you will get a Christmas tree so much the same thing. 😀

Surely this must be announcing its exciting news soon. There won't be much time to market it otherwise.

Restricted view balcony from £1.2m, front stalls from £8.4m, plus £2.25 per ticket booking fee. Elf picture tea towels at £65. Preferable to watching the show (at least it's useful!) |

I enjoyed it actually. I like having a Christmas musical in town, gets me all excited for festivating 🙃 I loved it last year at the Dominion - apart from the awful Kimberley Walsh. Had a front row Dress Circle ticket for £50 and didn't find it too expensive. |
