Cilla was by far the best musical I've seen so far. It absolutely blew me away.
Thank you for that i'll def have a look..might be one i can take my mum toIt’s a true story about planes that have to land in a small town called Gander in Canada after the US airspace is closed from 9/11. It follows some of the people in the town and some stories of people on the planes. Incredibly moving and interesting. The cast all play different roles! If you YouTube them doing the west end live 2019 it’ll show you the cast I saw do a couple of the songs. It’s one of my favourites I’ve ever seen!
I went on my own to see it last month as no one would see it with me! I actually enjoyed seeing it on my own so much I’ve booked to see dear Evan Hansen on my own in December before seeing it again in April with my friend (I’m obsessed with it after seeing it on broadway and couldn’t wait that long!! )I musical theatre, I probably average about one a month so i won't list everything I've seen
I've got tickets for Moulin Rouge on Broadway in December which I'm VERY excited about.
I keep trying to persuade friends to go with me to see come from away but noone will. Want to see out even more after reading this thread
Booked that myself Whoopi Goldberg and Jennifer Saunders in the cast, I’m there!I’ve just seen sister act is coming to the west end next summer with whoopee goldberg- I have to see it!!
Going to see that in Edinburgh in December, £40 I thought was a reasonable price to pay since I’m up in Edinburgh at the time. I must admit I don’t love the film (original) like some people do, but I think there will be some great magic to it on stage as a musical.I have seen Dirty Dancing, Officer and a gentleman and Bodyguard. The one I want to see is Lion King. It’s touring now but I have a expensive few months coming up so can’t justify it. Maybe next time it tours x
I can't believe more people haven't mentioned this. It is the best thing I have ever witnessed with my eyes!! I ventured out of the glorious Kingdom of Fife to go to London for the first time in my life, specifically to see this last year and I still do not have the superlatives to exclaim how amazing it was. I am desperate to see it again!Hamilton is by far the best musical theatre I have seen - can’t put into words how amazing it is!
That was me, heard Whoopi and Jennifer Saunders were in it, and I booked. It’s a Bloody expensive show is Sister Act.I got tickets to Sister Act - dont even know if it's had good reviews, just saw Whoopi was doing it and booked!
It is, but I'm willing to do it for Whoopi, lol. I heard they dont sing the songs from the film cos of copyright thoughThat was me, heard Whoopi and Jennifer Saunders were in it, and I booked. It’s a Bloody expensive show is Sister Act.
What?! The songs are the whole point. Didn’t know thatIt is, but I'm willing to do it for Whoopi, lol. I heard they dont sing the songs from the film cos of copyright though
Sorry, I shouldve said the *same* songs. New songs were written for the musical , but there are none from the film. The new ones are written by Alan Menken though so should be goodWhat?! The songs are the whole point. Didn’t know that
Yeah. Sorry that’s what I meant. The songs from the movies are the classics surely?Sorry, I shouldve said the *same* songs. New songs were written for the musical , but there are none from the film. The new ones are written by Alan Menken though so should be good
Must be because of the rights to these songs. Maybe it’s either expensive or impossible to actually get the license to use them in anything other than the film? I don’t know how it works but clearly there’s a reasons. seems a shame though when there are certain songs in particular that just make the movie what it is.Yeah. Sorry that’s what I meant. The songs from the movies are the classics surely?
