I remember the good old days when nobody knew about todaytix
Day tickets super easy to get, and I'd make a new account each time to use the welcome2tt code 😆

4.5 stars This was sensational! Staging really incredible, good use of the lighting and spoiler alert -confetti.
Best thing I've seen in regents park by a long way. It feels modern and fresh compared to traditional staging of Evita with the balcony and wigs.
Would love to go again but tickets are pricey!!
Don't go to the matinee, I feel it won't have the same impact in daylight.

This was divine, so much talent on that small stage!
Sharon steals the show, obviously.
£10 young persons tickets, already booked to go back.
Does anyone know any good bars/clubs in London that do similar blues/cabaret performances like in the show?

I think the majority of criticism for the trailer comes from people who've never seen Cats

managed to get a £16 return train ticket! & £5 seat bargain! Going to spend the day at Petworth Sounds like a good day but surely going to Petworth will bump up the travel cost as there's no station for miles? 99 bus Petworth to Chichester £5 each way, only takes 30 mins!

> because you wouldn't get away with it, duh
Take any existing poc Disney character and try cast a white person in it
Let's see how happy people are then
It absolutely works both ways

Political correctness makes me yawn
How sh*tty to ponder to American politics for a Disney film Nobody wants to watch a Disney film and think about politics
This is about white American guilt
You just know they did not even consider a Latino/Asian American for this role
Diversity in Hollywood only extends to ret-conning characters as black or LGB

Andy Coxon has a good cover of Waving through a window on YouTube
Most of the covers from the Greatest Showman are awful

Also, in Love Never Dies, there is a bar scene where the phantom (Ramin) is disguised as the bar man. Raoul is at the bar. The phantom rips off something and reveals himself to Raoul as a surprise.
One woman in the audience was so SHOOK at the reveal that she screamed and everyone including Ramin started laughing.

I saw Man Vs Superman with Ralph Fiennes at NT. There was a little cabinet/table with glasses/decanters on it that came up to the stage from below.
The lift(?) bringing it up to the stage kinda violently snapped into position. And all the glasses and stuff just shattered/flew across the stage a bit. Lots of broken glass everywhere.
Actors were like D: and there was a curtain call for 5 mins. 😅

It's very exciting.
Wonder why she doesn't perform more often in the UK, she was a leading lady for quite a while here.
Many people consider her to be the best Christine

f*** their views if they negatively impact somebody's right to exist Trying to put this into context can I give an example. In Birmingham there has been issues with parents demonstrating outside a mainly Muslim school about LGB teaching going on there. In this case the consensus would likely be that the parents were wrong despite their faith not agreeing with it. Then same parents were probably fasting for their Holy Month if someone said why the hell are you doing this, we'd likely side with the parents. Trying to be all things to all men can cause an issue. The local MP in the school issue has been criticized for appearing to side with the parents as his party is strongly pro LGBT but his electorate is likely a majority of the parents' faith so he is trying to appease them too. There is no need to appease people who choose hate. A simple exercise: replace gay people with black people, for example, as the minority group being affected, and one can see that there is no need for "context", logic, nuance or whatever. Being gay is just as innate as the colour of your skin. If the man in the sky told people to hate black people would anyone be second guessing or trying to appease, no.

With everyone being told they have to accept everyone for what they are, I have always pointed out to people what if one denomination's view and teaching is that they don't agree with the actions of another denomination how do people resolve this? f*** their views if they negatively impact somebody's right to exist

A very enjoyable 90 mins for me! Strong performances by all. Agree with above, not all gay theatre needs to be as thought provoking as Angels or The Inheritance. Just sit back and enjoy your self esteem being crushed by the pretty men At first when I saw the bed I was like, oh no! another fringe gay play set around a bed !!
