There'd also be quite the backlash if it turned out he'd fibbed about his mental health issues and postponed a tour just to make a movie.

How about Prince Andrew the musical? That's only on Channel 4, isn't it? Maybe it'll be such a success that they adapt it for the stage.

She lived up the road from me. I even spoke to her a couple of years ago in the dry cleaners Did you ask if it was something of Hyacinth’s that needed the dry clean post 11am coffee incident?

There is a very good reason why full standing ovations don’t happen at Chichester. Cheeky!! There was a full standing ovation when I went on Tuesday night. Plenty of wee nippers in the audience. Lovely production of a particularly wafer-thin entertainment. But I suppose that’s part of its charm. Charlie had a little slip in one of his early tap numbers but recovered incredibly well.

Julian O is a walking work of art in so many ways - everything going for him. Yes indeed 😁 Whenever I think of him walking onstage completely starkers in ‘My Night with Reg’, the loveliest, most blissful feeling comes upon me. Like the first mouthful of a perfect Tiramisu.

It’s supposed to be released 20th December 2023 which is the same week as Wicked. Two movie musical releases the same week seems unlikely? Wicked: Part One is December 2024, not ‘23.

I’m afraid I can’t answer any of your questions but I can tell you that it can be found on YT. Just having a watch. What a great play. Victoria Hamilton is magnificent in it. If anyone is looking for something to watch, I recommend! I really don’t like that bit where they break character in fits of giggles though, call me old-fashioned!

Any word on a transfer for this? I'd be surprised if it did, it didn't sell well in either Chichester or Bath.

He’d be good but I wonder if they’re conscious of having too many pop stars in the cast? Ooooh can we have Suzi Quatro as Madame Morrible, Adam Ricketts as Dr Dillamond and David Cassidy as the Wizard? You can never have too many popstars! Too short, too problematic and too dead is my answer to that, I'm afraid.

How about that Jonas bro? The one who did Les Mis? Nick was it? He’d be good but I wonder if they’re conscious of having too many pop stars in the cast?

Actually Jonathan Bailey isn't a bad shout. He could age up and down. But with bridgerton and his recently announced tv or movie (forget which) i cant see him being available Something just seems a bit off with the way this movie(s) is shaping up. Hopefully I'm wrong and there will finally be a good modern movie musical Jonathan Bailey is a bit too classy for this now, I think*. He’ll be wanting to flex those meaty acting chops. They need a fresher twink off the block. *And don’t come for me like you did after I suggested Olivia Colman &/or Jodie Comer wouldn’t want to be in Mamma Mia 3. Btw that’s not specifically directed at you @theatrefan2, just anybody. I don’t remember who it was. Xxxx

Jordan Fisher is a name that has been thrown around a lot for Fiyero. I think he fits the bill, but wouldn't be my ideal choice. I think Jonathan Bailey (Bridgerton star) would be a good pick.

Also, having just read the article... how many people go to the cinema on Christmas Day? How many cinemas are actually open? Christmas day here in the uk is the only day cinemas are shut. Though in recent years, some have been opening on Xmas Day. I’m aware of some Odeons that have.

Meryl “doesn’t do sequels”, would doing a 2 part film be doing a sequel? She did both parts of Angels in America, so I think she’d be fine with it 😂 Though I’m doubtful if she could be arsed to play another witch!

After reading the blurb about her on the CFT website, I realise that I've actually seen her in FOUR things! She was wonderful in Xanadu at Southwark Playhouse, I just wouldn't have been able to tell you her name. She was “Unnecessary Norma” in the ENO Sunset Boulevard. The one who was skulking around in the background walking very slowly with pointy feet. I don’t even remember that! Did Glenn not do all her own skulking?

Bin the lot of them!
Turn 10 Downing Street into a theatre with a certain intimacy but enough wings space to house Bedknobs And Broomsticks! That way What's New Pussycat? can have the Noel Coward and the House of Commons can be used for the Oklahoma! transfer.
Yes, vote for me.

I've just contacted the Royal Court Box Office about moving my tickets because of not being able to travel tomorrow and they want to charge me an admin fee, which I think is a bit much considering the train strike is completely out of my control. There are no trains running out of Brighton tomorrow.

I saw this too. I thought it was quite good, putting aside for a moment the ethical implications and my own opinion of sex work/prostitution etc. Very brave of Thompson to go fully naked in several scenes. Must be hard to do at any age, and interesting that the guy doesn't get full frontal shots, while she does. I've seen some screen caps of his full frontal shots (sorry), so they're definitely in the film. You didn't drop a Malteser at a prime moment did you?
