I'd be willing to bet money that more people have seen the newsies musical than will ever see ALW's Cinderella (unless he basically rewrites the entire dang thing).

Tbf stage door isn't part of any west end performers job. Shes not the only one whose spoken out about it and how chaotic it can get. Theyve done their job and got kids/families to get home to
she also had all the stress going on with that scary individual sending fake escort ads with her pic on them to her colleagues/family. Things like that would make anyone nervous about groups of randomers outside a stage door on a dark evening - especially when she uses public transport to get home.

the way some of her dedicated fans send her messages about how much they want to hug her at stage door - I'd be v uncomfortable with that, don't want to be touched by strangers at the best of times let alone during a pandemic. Don't think anyone owes anyone that when they're just trying to leave their workplace.

🙄 the actual talent in her category and she gets the vote.
Let’s keep this in perspective though. No one in the industry actually takes these seriously as they are voted by fans.
You can also set up as many email accounts as you like to vote and I can imagine her crazy fans doing this.
Ah well enjoy your moment Carrie cos you’re not getting the Olivier.

Literally everyone in every thread is adamant their person reads their thread. I’m sure some do but I bet Oliver hasn’t. I don’t see why he would think ‘oh shit they’ve said I’ve not posted for ages, I better post!’ It makes no sense.

She really can't stick to a narrative. After the whole WEL disaster, she spoke about how much she hated performing without being able to hide behind a character/show, and how much she didn't want to do WEL in the first place. Now she's doing another whole ass solo tour? I'm all for pushing your comfort zone but why make such a big deal of how much you hate performing outside of a show to go and do this

I haven't been following this thread lately but I just saw the WOS award results and had to rush over. I am sorry, but it is a total joke that Carrie won over Sam Barks and Jessie Buckley. She's not even in the same league as them! It makes a whole mockery of the awards when it's clearly a popularity contest rather than going on actual merit.

I get carrie is hurt by the breakup but she is looking like an absolute tit. Oliver is being respectful and dignified.

Obviously I want the tea spilled but she is making herself look really immature (as to be expected) and Obviously isn't handling it well.

Saw it coming though. He looks so bored of her during those lockdown videos

Oliver is clearly more mature than her, there’s clearly no big cheating scandal or she’d have “hinted” to it by now and then claimed she never implied it at all. She wouldn’t be able to resist dragging his name through the mud. Clearly, the relationship ended and now Carries throwing a tantrum on social media about how she “didn’t see it coming”. I feel bad for her cause it’s probably genuine and nobody wants there relationship to end out of the blue, but she clearly posted that Q&A wanting breakup questions lol. Could’ve even write them herself we don’t know lol

I had a big sudden break-up after a similar length relationship a couple of years ago and you COULD NOT PAY ME, then or now, to be that candid about it. "After my relationship ended", "after a big life change", "being single I thought I'd just go for it", etc, yes, but wording it like that just sounds so bitter even though I'm sure she's going for blasé.

There's being honest and then there's choosing to be so open that you're forcing a certain narrative or response and this just seems like she wants both "aw, he left her, how could he do that!" (even though nobody has to be with you and they're not doing anything fundamentally wrong by not wanting to be with you. There are good and bad ways to go about it, of course, though) and "go on girl, you're a bad ass girl boss!"

Love her honesty :D
Yeah, it has to suck being left like that and apparently unexpected. But it probably was something that Oliver had wanted for a while and she didn’t notice/didn’t want to believe. Unless he very suddenly found someone else and wanted to end the relationship with Carrie asap. But I’m pretty sure that if someone else had been the reason for Olli leaving her, she would have made countless passive-aggressive allusions already. Since she hasn’t, I’m inclined to guess that he simply wasn’t happy and ended it when he felt he could. Sucks for her, but things like that do happen. And „knowing“ Carrie, I bet the thing she’s most angry about is that she was blindsided and didn’t have the chance to have someone else lined up immediately ;))
This is the thing. Everyone who's been the one to be broken up with will probably have had the initial response of feeling betrayed and rejected, but if someone doesn't want to be with you, they don't want to be with you. You could be the most intelligent, beautiful, funny, outgoing, adventurous, creative, kind person in the world and they might not have romantic feelings for you or feel comfortable in the dynamics of the relationship. They're allowed to not want that and you'll also be better off not being with someone who doesn't want to be with you. I feel like Carrie is struggling to realise that. It's difficult to feel rejected so hugely, especially out of the blue, I've not so long ago been there but you deal with it and you move on and not everything you do has to be a "fuck you!" to them.

I don't mind the passive aggressive posts because it gives us little hints about what happened. Keep em coming. 😂

Just so everyone can see the full post Carrie had shared on her story… ironic isn’t it? Number 2, 5 and 6 are particularly funny in the context. She shares this trying to get back at Oliver when it’s clear to see she’s actually quite toxic if we read this post thinking about her. I honestly want to hear the full breakup story at this point just so we can see just how far Carrie will go to be the victim.

I’m surprised she won because she was up against people MUCH better at acting than her. But also not surprised because half the votes would have been her dopefuls and the other half may have been Debs.

Now that I think about it, it was probably not a fun night for Oliver. Yeah the show he’s in won most of the awards but he had to watch one of his exes performing a song with her boyfriend, and another one winning an award and doing a speech not long after their break up - not to mention he didn’t win in his category. Probably stung a bit. 😅
