I've just seen this in an interview with JRB:
"Q: Honeymoon in Vegas recently had an acclaimed concert version in London. Any talk about a full production in London?
JRB: I’m not in a position to say too much about it but I believe there is a big plan for the UK for Honeymoon in Vegas, which I’m very excited about.
Q: Stephen Sondheim has said he loves the show’s songs, but some people thought the plot (which includes a man putting his fiancée up in a poker game) would’ve been better set in an earlier era. Others said it was too long. Would you consider tinkering with the show?
JRB: I’m not ruling out anything, but the concert version we did in London consisted of the entire script and score and it was a fantastic experience for all of us and it felt like what I wanted the show to feel like. I don’t think we’ll throw too much under the bus."
Sounds promising for a London Production. I obviously would prefer a production of BRIDGES, but this will do in the meantime. Wonder where it will be? I can't imagine it being a big, glossy West End production. Maybe somewhere like the Southwark Playhouse, or Charing Cross?
