I try to catch this a couple of times every tour. I am hoping they redo this production, new set etc . I love current one but I am ready for something new ! I wouldn’t be against it going back to the good old pantomime sort of version back from when chis Malcolm used to direct, just for a turn before going back to its original dark roots ! Time to lose some chub, nobody needs a bulging frank!

Now that ATG aren't in full control of the rights, the next tour will play non-ATG venues that it hasn't visited for years. So hopefully some re-ignited interest from 'fans' who haven't been able to see it in their local non-ATG venue for ages. The last tour played Cardiff New Theatre twice though and that's not ATG.

Aren't they already on sale? I bought mine for Wimbledon more than 2 weeks ago.

Has this tour been cast yet? A recent Instagram story from a certain actor had the script open on a page with brads lines clearly emphasized . The music for "once in a while" was also open. I assume he was auditioning for the part.

I hadn't heard of Oliver Ormson before, but from looks alone (shallow, I know) he looks like he'd make a great Brad.
Can you tell us whose Insta it was, @theatrefan01?

Has anyone heard anything about a cast announcement yet? I’m just guessing but I think Ben Adams could be doing this, probably as Brad.

I haven't seen anything on the TimeWarp official fan club site, nor the various social media accounts that seem to get casting information pretty quickly... hopefully news will come soon. Gutted that the RO'B concert we weren't allowed to talk about has fallen through.
I loved the last UK cast, but I'm excited for something new. I'd really love to see a new staging, but I suspect we'll get another outing of the "party" set. Either way, Rocky Lives, which keeps me happy!

Hello again - I see the RO'B concert thread has been locked, but to confirm your suspicions @theatremonkey & @remark, the announcement on the website is that the concert has been cancelled. TimeWarp themselves had nothing to do with the concert or its cancellation though, they were just helping promote it.
Very sad, I've booked a weekend in London for Company on Saturday and had planned that for Sunday. I was hoping I could soften the blow a little and book for Heathers instead, but they don't do Sundays. I'll have to do non-theatre things instead... the very idea!!

For those expecting e refund I wouldn’t discuss the cancellation until you get your money back if I were you - read the announcement on Timewarp.
We’re going to West End Bares instead as it’s always been on my bucket list and I was gutted that they clashed

Reckon Duncan James will actually be great in this. Really liked him in Priscilla and he’s as camp as Christmas. But has he got the nasty edge?

Ooh I’m glad this has been announced and my detective skills were correct! I think Ben has a lovely voice and will be great in this role. Agree also that Duncan was a pleasant surprise in Priscilla and think he will put his all in to the role. Interested to see who will take the part of the narrator.

I was going to suggest having Boris Johnson as the narrator as he isn’t doing very much, but seeing him in suspenders probably isn’t something you would really want to see. I just hope it’s someone who the audience can have some banter with as that’s all part of the fun of the show.

Speak for yourself - the sight of a pasty, middle aged saggy right wing politician in a sexually provocative outfit is big money to... someone? Probably.

Duncan James seems to be quietly carving out a good stage career for himself and if he can pull off Frank ( no pun intended honky tonk|) could be very good as the role. I think Joanne will be fun as Janet too. Hopefully they get someone good as the Narrator.

For anyone booking especially for Ben & Joanne (or for those who may want to avoid seeing them) they are only appearing until the 25th May. There will be a new Brad & Janet after Birmingham (The June - November dates)

My pathological & completely irrational dislike of duncanfromblue actually loosened a bit when I saw this news. I think he’d be a great Frank. (and things went a bit further than pulling. They ruined a perfectly good Matalan fitted sheet!).
