So the leading lady would have the power to bankrupt the show if she didn't get her way during the run on any issue she fancied?

I would be quite surprised if Miranda missed a performance of Annie. Sheridan's situation was different to Glenn's but both Fanny Brice and Norma Desmond are high pressure roles in very demanding shows. Miss Hannigan however is a bit of a laugh and she doesn't lead the whole show. On a side note, I think Miranda will do it very well. The photos of her in rehearsals have looked like she's really got into the character

The theatre looks great! I am so excited for this to open, the tour was brilliant! I'm confused. They've just got the image showing on the LED screen. How does it look great?

It's really tricky finding Miranda Hart's final performance date. Are the Producers hoping to con people into booking in the Autumn when in fact they'll be seeing someone else? There was talk of it being September 17th but I just can't find it anywhere.

Well she's missed enough Call The Midwife. She left the programme ages ago didn't she? She was supposed to have been in the last series but "scheduling conflicts" put pay to that. They had to rewrite.

Looks like we may be getting a Cast Recording or at least a track, could possibly just be vocals for the trailer too... Benjamin Mundy put an instagram up with ensemble members Patrick Harper, Nic Gibney and Ben Harrold. http://instagram.com/p/BUFPhAVFIop

Yeah, I agree with sistermaryann, producers are rather stingy in the UK in that we hardly ever get revival cast recordings, I'd definitely hedge my bets on it being for click-tracks!

I dunno, this is the first major revival in about 20 years of the show in London, and also there has never been a London Cast Recording so its not completely out of the possibilities is it?

I can't say I'm too bothered if there's a cast recording or not but damn that's one very handsome ensemble

You're right, definitely could be a possibility! Just don't know what the demand for a new Cast Recording would be, the Broadway revival one isn't *that* old. But hey, if they release it, I'll get it!

Aren't they a bit old to be playing the orphans?

There's no way they'd record an album or even a track in the rehearsal room.

They were recording click tracks. I saw it on someone else's instagram. I think it was Patrick Harper's.

There is a London cast recording from 1978 with Ann-Marie Gwatkin as Annie and Shiela Hancock as Miss Hannigan 😉. Edit: someone got there before me 😂

Annie isn't even that great a show to negate that many Cast Recordings!

I think there are quite a few. A few of the recordings in English include: the original Broadway cast, original London cast, original Australian cast, 30th anniversary tour cast recording and the recent Broadway revival cast. There are quite a few others as well.
