Pop Idol or Gone with the Wind?
Yes it can:  Darius Danesh will be Rhett Butler in the new musical version of Gone With The Wind. Those of you who remember his rendition of Hit me Baby One More Time will cringe at the thought, but Mr Danesh has come a very very long way since then, and if you saw him as Billy Flynn in Chicago you may get half an idea of how perfect he might be for this role. Here's hoping!
On the other side of the "Frankly My Dear" equation is Jill Paice - a lady of excellent musical pedigree on both sides of the pond with roles as diverse as Laura Fairlie in Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Woman in White and Sophie in MAMMA MIA!
Booking is open and we have good availability for most performances. It's becoming my catchphrase but " Book Now". |
Boublil and Schonberg are back.
The masters behind Les Miserables, Miss Saigon and several others have written this tale of love - this time with the Second World War as a backdrop. They are good at this Love and War type thing so there is no reason why this world premier shouldn't be one of those unmissable events.
Marguerite draws inspiration from one of the greatest of romantic novels, La Dame aux Camélias by Alexandre Dumas so it is a good story and Ruthie Henshall (of Dancing on Ice judge fame) will be starring!
I'm still angling for allocation so in the meantime just fill in your request online and we will put your break together and get straight back to you - best tickets only of course! |

Introducing Edward Fox live on stage
A new show is coming in to the Savoy Theatre before the Take That musical Never Forget.
 Legal Fictions stars Edward Fox and is a double bill of comedies from Rumpole of the Bailey creator, John Mortimer. In The Dock Brief, an incompetent barrister, Morganhall is asked to represent the lugubrious Mr Fowle who confesses to murdering his jovial wife. Although the two of them rehearse a masterly defence in the cell, when they reach the courtroom everything goes horribly wrong.
In Edwin, retired High Court Judge, Fennimore Truscott can't break the habit of trying as many people as he can - in his imagination. But when he turns his overly suspicious mind towards his wife's friendship with the next-door neighbour, he opens up a can of worms.
It is only at the Savoy for a short run from 21 February to 26 April but should be a lot of fun. Book Now as they say! |

And Finally...  Lastly an odd one - an advisory note - or maybe it is a promotional note for School Groups. The Woman in Black is every school group's "must see" play at the moment - partly because of its quality and partly because of its position in the curriculum. Anyway, if you are a teacher about to organise a school group or a parent thinking "why hasn't my child been taken to see this important production?" or if you are a student thinking "Oh cool! Another escape from the classroom" contact Good To See, our sister company to organise your London itinerary which can include tickets, travel, tours, talks, accommodation, food, teachers packs - I could go on! Obviously this is leading up to the advisory note - Adults: Beware children midweek! (do students say "cool" now?) |
