Seems odd that this is closing on a Thursday night...

Timing also fits with Zoe Birkett’s run in The Bodyguard ending… Zoe is in the Witches at the National Theatre till the end of January,that's why her run in the Bodyguard is quite short!

I wouldn't be surprised if an announcement was made on a Wednesday as 'On Wednesdays We Wear Pink' is one of the most famous Mean Girls quotes

Any thoughts on whether LH might do the tour next year? Is this version expected to tour or is it the BK tour you’re asking about? I believe the BK version has permanently closed now?

Just went to look at tickets and it appears the opening week in Woking has been cancelled and is now starting in Wimbledon the following week...

Has the rest of the tour been cancelled? Just been told Southend has been cancelled and won’t be rescheduled. I’ve had tickets for Cardiff rescheduled to July 2021, so maybe they’re trying to squeeze in as many dates as possible for later in 2021? Had my Wimbledon tickets rescheduled to for February, feel like that probably isn't going to happen either though!

She's probably just releasing a cover of Let It Go or something She's already done a cover of Let It Go on one of her albums a few years ago and 'Into The Unknown' from Frozen 2 is on her latest album!

Watched the first episode of this yesterday on amazon prime having had it in my watch list since the beginning of lockdown, interesting history of The Theatre Royal Haymarket, can't believe it was only filmed around 2012 though the picture quality made it look a lot older!

Well, today would've been cast change day. Already, Natalie, Courtney and Danielle have confirmed they would've been leaving today. Collette and Zara have now also confirmed they'd be leaving today too! EDIT:Hana too now!

Natalie Andreou is another former standby who has vanished, deleted all social media etc. I had completely forgotten about Natalie Andreou! I never actually saw her live but what heard, I loved - did anybody on here actually get to see her live? I'd be interested to hear about her portrayal. last I knew Natalie was working as a vocal coach and had started a family. Never saw her in Wicked but I saw her as Sherrie in Rock Of Ages twice, she was brilliant in that!

Tonight I was meant to be at the closing night of the We Will Rock You UK Tour at the New Wimbledon Theatre. I was meant to be at the matinee!

The theatre is younger than the Bill Kenwright set! 🤣 The Acropolis is younger than the BK set.... I was in the choir of the uk tour in 2005&2006, during my first show a bit of a palm tree dropped off and landed on the step next to me, when I had my last performance a year and a half later they still hadn't fixed it and the palm tree was still missing the end of the leaf 😂😂😂

I have quite a lot of stuff, I always buy a programme and often a souvenir brochure, I have a few t-shirts (Rock of Ages x3, We Will Rock You and Jersey Boys) and some hoodies (Wicked, Matilda, Cats and We Will Rock You) I find I don't really wear them much though so I've stopped buying them now although I really want a Six hoodie so maybe one day! Got some tote bags Jersey Boys, Matilda and 42nd Street and I have a cardboard tube full of posters which one day I would love to eventually get framed. Back in December I got one of the glittery Six lyric pin badges when I saw the show and over the next few months I bought the other five from the website, I also have a Cats Christmas bauble which I love! I probably have more stuff that I've forgotten about, my bedroom is very cluttered!

I can picture lots of dads sitting INSIDE the car, windows up, listening to Radio 4 😆 This is the condition my dad agreed to drive me to the show with My dad says he's going to sit in the car and read a book...

Booked premium for London (though it's definitely not in London 😂) to see the tour cast, if I drove would have booked Milton Keynes as well to see the West End cast too but definitely would not be able to persuade my family to go twice!

I voted for Phantom, mainly for the overture for me it's just a sort of goose bump moment even though I've never seen it live just the 25th Anniversary DVD and the film! Feel like I should be biased towards Joseph as I was in it for a year and a half, but to me it's not his best although I do love it!

Hello there, as previously said a lot is still in the Theatres, such as Lion King up in Edinburgh, 27 trailers worth of stuff. some has been taken out and is in the producers storage and a heck of a lot is sitting in trailers. Here for example is some stuff from Phantom, nothing exciting, just the washing machines and various stuff lol. My friend once climbed in an industrial washing machine marked property of Bill Kenwright that was dumped by stage door of Windsor Theatre when we were in Joseph😂

There's absolutely no proof whatsoever (in fact, the contrary) that bootlegs harm ticket sales. Not only do the numbers don't stack up, but people who'd seek and watch bootlegs are repeat attenders and who'd see the show live (perhaps repeatedly) if they are able to. This is not even an "accessibility" case that I'm trying to make, it's just stupid to actually believe that a regular theatre-goer would rather watch a bootleg over seeing the show live. I've very occasionally watched parts of them on YouTube and always find even if its a show I really love I never enjoy it very much, you can't beat being there in person and watching one would never make me not buy a ticket!

So thrilled for Jodie Jacobs, this could be her first west end gig since WWRY if I’m not mistaken? Such an underused, overlooked performer in my opinion! She was in Rock Of Ages too for the entire West End run!

My favourite stagey book is 'Skating the Starlight Express' by Michal Fraley - read it several times now! Really interesting insight into the skating of Starlight Express as well as the musical itself!

For me I think Vicki Manser would be a perfect Jenna. She would be great! Think she would make a really good Dawn as well!

[quote author=" intoanewlife" source= I wouldn't be surprised if Danielle goes. Even though she is great she doesn't seem to have ever really 'taken' to it the way the others have.[/quote] Ithought that as well about Danielle! I have a feeling Courtney was planning to go too because the other day on her slightly drunken Instagram live her friend said something along the lines of are you allowed to say when your leaving and then she told him the shut up and that he'd pretty much announced it to all the people watching... Though with the current state of things I really have no clue anymore what will happen! Will just have to wait and see!

Lots of posts from the cast on social media this morning saying that the UK tour of Beautiful is now officially over😟😟 so sad but so happy I got to see it just the once!

I don’t have any shows booked until Beautiful in May but it’s likely it will be cancelled. It’s at an ATG venue so I think I will donate to Acting for Others if it is called off. I was meant to be seeing it next week and that was my exact plan too!
