A few places around the interweb have mentioned that this will be the summer show at the Menier directed by John Doyle?

Any other news or anyone know more?

This was rumoured, but I think they had an issue with rights...  Not sure if the new rumour of The Woman in White is accurate as a replacement.

  • thats a real shame and see that john doyle is now doing pump boys and dinettes on broadway this summer so guess we will have to wait.
gutted as i thought this would be perfect there and would be a real hit in west end with the right cast and approach plus we have a wealth of potential leads !

I imagine they'd have trouble casting it over here

They were almost set to do it, not sure what the current situation is. I know that a good few key members of the regular menier music team are hoping to transfer with Merrily = if they get a transfer. its about 70% sure on transferring to the Harold Pinter, but is fighting off comp from My Fair Lady.
