Can’t complain if true. Love that show - and guessing it won’t take place in Blackpool with Sheader gone?

They'll need to cast that well - Fiddler is a chore if you haven't got good leads

It would, but sadly I don't see that happening.
They could revive their production of Into the Woods though. Just wishful thinking I know! Will keep dreaming...

Spamalot is one I'd love to see the Open Air do.

so soon after the Playhouse production? I saw this at the Menier and it was magical. I'd be up for another production particularly a more 'opened up' one after the intimacy of the Menier. And I don't suppose they come more open than Regent Park.

I mean I'd enjoy it if it was Lord of the Rings - feels a more interesting choice to be here rather than Chichester!

It looks like Brigadoon to me (The Heather on the Hill?).

If it's Brigadoon it'll need a star

It’s way overdue a big revival. Fingers crossed

Could the poster background and Cush Jumbo being involved be a link to a play they are staging rather than a musical ?

I wonder if the 'don't hit the snooze button' also relates to Brigadoon, the town that only wakes every 100 years. Together with the Heather it feels more Brigadoon than LOTR
Also, Cush Jumbo can sing I think so she doesn't necessarily have to mean a play.

It could also be The Scottish Play.

If it's Brigadoon, I hope they use Agnes de Mille's original choreography.
