Great, thanks theatrically.  Better get my skates on then!

Very much looking forward to this - Chess was the first West End musical I ever saw, I loved the album so much I took the overnight bus down from Scotland where I was living at the time, saw the first Saturday matinee of the West End run, and then took the overnight bus back  up home.  It was also my first visit to London by myself (I had just turned 18) and can't imagine how worried my parents must have been about what I might have got up to (nothing, unfortunately).  Saw the RAH concert production but am very excited to see it staged again.

hehe!  When we went to see this production of Chess we got the 4am train from Scotland, saw the show in the evening then got the overnight bus back home!  It was completely worth it!

Saw the show on Saturday.  Only knew the rough premise of the story and a couple of songs beforehand so wasn't sure what to expect.  Overall i enjoyed it, without being blown away.  Thought the show dragged a little in the middle, but then picked up again.  A good ensemble piece, and think this will be more evident as the run continues.  I'm glad I saw it, but not one I'd go back to.

Saw the show on Saturday and loved it.  Thought Sarah Galbraith was the star, but overall it is a brilliant cast.  A bit unsure of Tim Oxbrow vocally but his acting was very strong.  I love Chess as a show, and felt this production went a bit deeper emotionally into who the characters are...this may be due to the intimacy of the venue as much as everything else.  I'm glad to see it's getting mainly positive reviews, would definitely recommend it.

Saw Wicked on Saturday night, first time with this cast and I loved them:)  Last saw the show in Feb, and Gina has got much better since then, her vocals, acting and comedy timing were all brilliant and she stole the show!  Louise was a great Elphaba, loved her take on the character, and her voice was very strong.  I liked Ben, much better than Matt was!  He acted it well and sung it ok, this will probably get better as time goes on.  Need to try work out a time for me to go back to see it:)
