Awww, they just opened!!

Too bad. It's such a great show.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

From what i heard from my OBC CD, it looks great, but some people said that the London production is not as good as the OFF-BWAY production

I've heard it's mostly because they put the show in a cavernous theatre that just devours this tiny little musical.

It's ironic that cavernous doesn't work for Bat Boy.

Bat Boy is only BOOKING until Feb 14th at the mo. This is because Far Pavillions has always been scheduled to go into the Shaftesbury. It is unknown yet as to whether Bat Boy will transfer, tour or close and the only reason it ended up in the huge Shaftesbury is because it was all that was available at the time! Hopefully the show will transfer to a smaller theatre and thrive! Go Bat Boy!!!
