www.vanityfair.com/style/2019/08/princess-diana-broadway-musicalPrincess Diana is headed to Broadway. After an acclaimed run at the La Jolla Playhouse in San Diego, the musical Diana will officially open at Broadway’s Longacre Theatre on March 31, 2020, with performances set to begin March 2. Jeanna de Waal will make the transition to Broadway as Diana, with Roe Hartrampf also returning as Prince Charles, Erin Davie as Camilla Parker Bowles, and Judy Kaye as Queen Elizabeth II.I don't know about "acclaimed," but OK!

This had good reviews I heard. It’s very odd for us Brits but I suppose why not - Maybe people in Argentina feel the same way about Evita? Who knows |

Man, you all lag behind, Germany had its own Diana musical in 2001 already. Was a flop apparently. Was done by the same rip-off creeps who've been sending fake Phantom and Les Mis around the country, cashing in on the fact that people weren't aware it's not the famous versions. archiv.rhein-zeitung.de/on/01/10/04/magazin/news/diana.html?A second one, due to open in Düsseldorf in 2007, didn't even manage to open. |

I really enjoyed this one! I saw it three days before the Broadway closure from the front row.

I think there are least 10 Diana musicals around, all of them awful and appallingly sentimental with the tritest of libretti. This particular one has four-chord pop songs through out that a teenager could write, with lyrics like (I quote verbatim): 'If Charles would step aside / And let my William reign / Then all this suffering / Will not have been in vain'. Yeah...

Here's a teaser for that new Dutch show, now called 'Diana and Sons'. Looks like Harry and Meghan will make an appearance. |

Gutted, this is going far too soon.
I feel lucky I got over to Broadway in November and have seen this show live on stage.
So grateful we have a cast recording (and Netflix filmed version too).
I look forward to its revival in 20 years on the fringe scene!!
