I've never heard of that before. Automatically transferring your booking to a totally different show and if we don't hear from you we assume that is OK.

One way of selling Ghost tickets for a second visit in the same city!

Interesting way of doing it, for sure, but I'm sure they will still have to honour any later requests for refunds. I suspect a good number of people won't even read the email and the first they will know of it is when the Ghost tickets come through the letterbox (hopefully with a covering letter explaining why they have - otherwise there will be a lot of very confused people out there!). |

I'm very sorry to hear about the illness in the producers family but aren't there usually contingencies in place for that sort of thing? It's 3 months away, there must have been some considerable investment already, do productions just get pulled like that? Seems a bit odd...

54 quid back in my handbag then. Now, what can I buy? BREAKING NEWS: "A shortage of Pickled Onion Flavour Monster Munch is upsetting large numbers of consumers in the Northern region of England at the present time." BREAKING NEWS: "A lorry carrying chilled desserts including luxury trifles was hijacked this afternoon on the M6. Police have taken a man into custardy..." 😐 |

"Dear Ticketholder
We are sorry to announce that Sleepless has been cancelled due to poor ticket sales unforeseen circumstances.
As we anticipate that at least 80% of the audience will be completely tanked up on lambrini before the show and
will spend much of the show checking their emails and popping out to the bar and the loos, we have exchanged your
tickets to a production of Ghost as it's unlikely you'll notice the difference"

Terribly sad news. Would've been a great show - had booked tix just to see Danny and Carley on stage together. Praying they do another musical together this year but what....??

This is a shame.
He'd have been good casting for An American in Paris

Danny Mac must be gutted - he must have hoped for a career boost after his successful stint in Strictly.

This is a shame. He'd have been good casting for An American in Paris Mr Barnaby - I had thought that myself. He had a very masculine and Gene Kelly style of dancing on Strictly which I thought would have suited the style of the show. I thought I read somewhere that Robert Fairchild wasn't staying long and Ashley Day was lined up to take over afterwards. I guess I'll have to content myself with the Strictly Live tour in Leeds on Friday...... |

Danny Mac must be gutted - he must have hoped for a career boost after his successful stint in Strictly. Strictly has boosted his career. He will no doubt be lined up for several other musicals and will easily get a job in musicals but it would've been nice to see him star alongside his finance, Carley. I love Carley's work but not sure she's as famous as Danny at the moment? |

Feel very sorry for Danny so close to the production.

I don't think he will be "lined up for several other musicals" - he will have cleared his diary for Sleepless and not been considered for anything else. Definitely not good news for him. With these reality TV shows you have to cash in quickly and establish yourself before the next years crop of celebs turns up and the focus shifts to them. In a year or so's time it will be who's Danny Mac. How many celebs can we name from previous series?

I agree with you there that you couldn't name many celebs from other series but Danny is also known from Hollyoaks too. He has left that and I presume will focus on a musical theatre career from now on. Carley is also known for being in Hollyoaks for 10 years so it would be great to see them onstage together - I just hope it's the right show! |

oh wow. See, this is a show I could see going to the theatre we dare not mention out of fear of backlash. |

They “secured a theatre” two years ago. I had a ticket for it at the Lowry. If they couldn’t do it back then I don’t see how they’re going to get this in in the West end by December. Sounds like a load of grandstanding.

It’s called Sleepless (with no Seattle) to save money on royalties apparently.
Ok.
(Cheap).

What a really odd article. The main chappie seems like a piece of work with his comments about not paying royalties.
