Saw this for the first time tonight at Providence RI, the US touring company. How did I somehow not know what an incredible show this is !!!

If by "colour and light" you mean incredible talent and presence then, yes

She has, what I think, is one of the best lines in ANY movie. The Jerk with Steve Martin "i'm not upset about losing the money, it's losing all the stuff". Only she could have made that so memorable. But besides that, she is just incredible. Her voice, her acting, everything.

Something I've only recently learned about American culture is there's an understanding that the massive portions you are served aren't to be consumed in a single sitting. Restaurants expect you to take your leftovers home for lunch/dinner the next day. A Big Gulp is still a helluva lot to get through in a single day,but the understanding is that it will take you a good part of the day to get through it, rather than you drinking it all at once. I'm in US and am still horrified at the size of some dishes. Some of the dishes I wouldn't eat as leftovers on a bet. Even the so called "Senior Plates" are so huge. Big Gulps are good for parties. You pour out half then fill with ice and rum. Last you all night. As the ice melts that drink becomes a bit more diluted, which is how I like them. Plus you can rightfully claim "I only had one drink all night"

Didn't happen opening the can... did when slicing the roll... and that is not a euphemism. Why is it that when someone says "that is not a euphemism" I give a little snort and think "does anyone really believe that?".

Myself and daniel were having this same conversation last night. I only have four shows booke thus far... closing night of American in Paris, Pippin, Fun Home and Company. Additionally, to keep in the stagey theme, Sheridan's tour too. Just saw Fun Home for the first time here in Providence RI this past Sunday night. Touring company is incredible!! I can't imagine that Broadway or West End cast could have been better.

(Question are the Gods of Gay Plays any different to the regular Gods of plays?) Hopefully they dress better than the regular Gods of plays

I've never in my life left the M&S food hall unhappy. God bless the M&S food hall. Hail! Hail! Hail! They opened one a 5 minute walk from my front door, for which I will be forever grateful. not much a little M&S treat can't fix! I have NOTHING comparable in the US. Especially in Barrington, Rhode Island. So sad

3rd day of no power here in Rhode Island after storm. Supposed to be back on by Thursday. Sucks as I work remotely and have been having to wonder around looking for power and internet. I want a shower. Really need one to

I LOVED THIS SHOW!! SO MUCH IT PISSES ME OFF! 😂😂 I was convinced when this was announced this would flop, be sh*t, worst musical of the year, I could not be more wrong! It is brilliant! The cast are fantastic all round, the score and book are hilarous and at moments really get to show off their voices, and the scene where the Monster comes to life, deservedly so, recieved its own applause just because of the sheer spectacle of it! I went to stage door after just to tell Dianne how brilliant she was, and she saw me, recognised me and said "you were a brilliant audience member, I haven't seen someone in front row be that responsive and laughing the whole way through yet!", and she was so right, I was crying with laughter at some points! Just brilliant, a 5 star show! How wonderful to know that the actors do see how audience reacts!! Hope this will still be running when I'm next in London

I can't wait to hear who is playing Freddy Eynsford-Hill to be honest. 'On The Street Where You Live' is one of the most gorgeous songs in musical theatre ever. Yes, I said it. Ever. Didn't Dame Diana play the same role in 'Pygmalion' in London's glitzy West End a few years back? The one with Rupert Everett? YES. 'On The Street Where You Live', was felt by everyone who walked past their "crushes" home. It resonated for me when I first heard it.

Apparently it's Lee Pace. Now I'm sad to be missing out. I have been mad about him since Pushing Daisies. Guess I'll be stressing about tickets again

Well. I think I have sciatica. I'm currently jacked up on a cocktail of paracetamol, ibuprofen and codeine so every cloud and all that. I think I could carry off a walking cane so I'm considering that too. Why do men seem to be able to carry off the cane more so than women? Is it my silver hair? Am I not taking my full dosage of Vicodin so that my Charlie Chaplin cane twirls dont have the same von vivant flair? Is it that I know what a Charlie Chaplin cane twirl is?

I wish I would have done more Stage Doors when I was in London this past July. I'm actually a bit shy and that, along with not being terribly familiar with the tube, meant that the only stage door I did was on my last play in London "Half a Six Pence". Emma Williams was so lovely. She made sure that everyone had an autograph and selfie. And then Charlie came out. I had read the reviews and such and had told my kids back in Rhode Island that I was going to see a future legend of musical theatre. He was so sweet. I kept screwing up the selfie and when I told him what I had told my family in Rhode Island, well, he's either a VERY good actor, or was genuinely touched. But I forgot his autograph !
I've bought a nice ticket to see him in Hello Dolly on my Birthday. London broke my KNEES!!. Looking at double knee replacement soon but I've already told my kids that the birthday present I want from them is to drive me to NY. Drop me off at Shubert Theatre. And hold me up at Stage Door.
Planning on next trip to London Oct 2018 with as many plays as I can fit in and will stage door every one!
Not sure why Broadway intimidates me so much but can't wait go get back on West End
