Best of the Best from Broadway in London 2006

Tres excited about Wicked and spamalot...i hope we get hairspray though!!!

wicked opens @ the apollo victoria on the 27th of sept.

I doubt it'll replaces Les Mis - when that finally closes Cameron Mackintosh has said he's going to press ahead with the renovations of the Queens and Gielgud which involve building a new theatre above that block.

I'd love to see Hairspray go into the Cambridge sometime soon though....

Now dont get me wrong i have never seen hairspray, apart from clips online and tv shows but the stage looks huge! i couldnt see it fitting into Queens as it is tiny with no really pit for a band etc. As for les mis thats booking well into 2007 as Cam Mac wants it to beat Cats in london...though as soon as he does close it Phantom will over take anyway so there isnt much point in that. As for cambridge i have been there a few times and even though all rumers say it will go there, i would hate to see it cramed into it.would it not fit and look better somwhere with a larger stage? Palladium, Prince Edward, or Dominium? (i know these are booked up at the moment but rumers are that mary is not doing well at the mo and is only open cz it would look bad to close it so soon after opening and before broadway opens)as i say this is only bassed on what iv seen (which i admit isnt much)but i love it and as i said would hate to see a small not to good version of it.

Yeah my best friend works for Disney which is how i knew. Hairspray at the savoy?? really? i have to admit i hadnt even considered it, i have never been there so have no idea about how it might look,whats the stage like there?i thought Rat Pack was still going strong, is it closing then or moving?
