Sarah French-Ellis was perfect as Scaramouche, her comic timing was brilliant and the audience really seemed to warm to her. Her rendition of 'Somebody to Love' was perfection, what a belt! She had great chemistry with the actor playing Galileo (not 100% sure that it was Alex Gaumond) I really felt like they were in love. He has an amazing singing voice and made a very believeable Galileo.
Brenda Edwards surprised me as Killer Queen as I'd read quite a few bad reviews about her. I thought she got the right balance between playing the villan but also being very funny. Her 'Another one Bites the Dust' was outstanding, what a voice!
Darren Day also surprised me, I hadn't realised what a brilliant actor he is!
I loved Wayne Robinson as Brit, very funny and loved the accent. Shame he gets killed off before the second act!
Rachel John (understudy) was on as Meat. She also has an amazing voice and nearly had me in tears with 'Only the Good Die Young.' Great chemistry with Wayne but am interested to see what Georgina Hagen is like as really can't imagine her as Meat- strikes me as a bit too young and vulnerable for Meat.
'I want it all' was one of my favourite performances, great set and they really got the audience going.
Kevin Kennedy was good as Pop but not too keen on his singing voice, average compared to the other performers. Then again I'm not sure if Pop is supposed to be a great singer!
As I said before, the ensemble were outstanding and had so much energy, I don't know how they keep it up night after night!
Just one question, does anyone know if Ashley Russell was on last night? as I couldn't spot her, unless she looks totally different with her wig on!
Sorry for the essay but just felt I had to commment on such a fantastic cast. Thank you for a brilliant night out!
