Not sure on this,  seems a bit much

Think more suited to the Theatre Circuit, but will keep an open mind..

Hmm I think arenas are possibly too big for this show - whether I see it or not will depend a lot on who they cast...

[harveyjnr]

think mazz might do it?

Oh god. soon we will have the arena tour of Too Close to the Sun

[FireFingers]

Gonna need a stellar cast and v. reasonable tickets for this to work. After all, Les Mis 25th was just 2 shows arena shows (I know it had just toured but still).

If they can get Brian May to tour with it, and some West End royalty in the cast then it might just work. It is probably the most "stadium" of musicals IMO, so it does have that in its favour.

I doubt it.  Kerry Ellis on the other hand...

[harveyjnr]

kerry ellis for killer queen! would she tour though?
i'd love to see sabrina back as scaramouche and coutts as meatloaf too. maybe ross hunter as a cheeky gazza...

But its not "West End Royalty" That gets bums in seats on Arena Tours.

Its Celebrity Casting, and BM playing at every one!

The Arena Crowd wont give a hoot about Kerry, and 99.9% will never of heard of Mazz.

Put a couple of "Red Top" Names and BM will be playing is they way you will get bums on seats,

And then expect to see massive papering through all the normal routes a few days before to fill the empty sections with freebies.

The cast will determine this for me as well, as I'm quite happy popping to the Dominion if I want to see it!
