So is this the same production as the GA young Vic or a new production New production of the play. Maxine Peake will pay Blanche. I'm interested to see who else will be in this. |

Well it's a whole new director, so it would be pretty scandalous if it ended up being basically the same production with a different lead actress.  |

it will be a totally new production surely. Crikey, the Exchange is obsessed with Ms Peake. sort of predictable casting. Are there no other actresses here up north.

Probably beacuse she is an associate artist there. Burly had me worried that they had done away with the Sunday matinees, but they are still there so that's me happy. |

Yep, she may be an associate artist, but the word 'ubiquitous' springs to mind.

Only two Sunday's in the whole run though. |

We don't have bendybuses. They can't handle the cobbles, and they scare the whippets |

I can usually tolerate colour blind casting because as BME I know we don't get that many opportunities but this does feel a bit "Oh. Wow. Okay"
