Well, when I reached the theatre, I queued up the returns ticket, trying to see who is alone and I could sell the ticket to him. But it seemed that everyone came in pairs! Then a woman came to me and gave me a ticket in the stalls costing 50 pounds... for nothing! I thanked her SO much, so I was MORE confident to sell my old ticket. Then the theatre had all those announcement about illegal ticket sellers and no one should buy from them.... actually lettin me off! Well, couldn't sell the ticket (what a shame!) and I went off to see the show. As usual, the show started 10 minutes late at around 7.40pm. I got a VERY feeling of the show from the stalls... I only sat in the Grand Circle and Dress Circle. Everything seems more close and I cried ALOT, even the scenes when I am not supposed to cry like at the end when Billy leaves!
Leon Cooke (Billy): Saw him last time and this time he did not disappoinment me. He is still AMAZING! Though his singing for some bits are not great, overall his singing is good. And his acting was great. His dancing... WOW! what can I say? Do I need to explain more? The Angry Dance scene seemed more amazing to me. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH!!!!!!! But since he's ballet boy too.... I REALLY REALLY want to see George or James for their street dance!
Joey Phillips (Michael): He is good. But I still preferred Ryan (prob. because I saw him for 2 times!). But he went for the more girlish approuch and he seems so sweet! I like quite alot in the show and I think his 'Expressing Yourself' is EXCELLENT! And his 'come on sister' led to alot screaming from alot of girls!
Tim Healy (Dad): VERY good, never fail to impress me!
Mrs. Wilkinson: Understudy, forgot her name. But I don't think she's Stephanie Putson as I think she was still on as Dead Mum. But she is FABULOUS! I think she looks ABSOLUTELY stunning! She looks exactly like Julie Walters except sexier and taller! Her singing is louder than Haydn. I still preferred Haydn, but she is definitely really good and you won't know that she's an understudy!
Chris Lennon (Tony): Understudy. Liked him. But he's thin and looks nothing like Joe Caffrey. His acting was good, singing was good but there just seems something missing from him that doesn't make him Tony for me!
Ann Emery (Grandma): VERY good! She's on FIRE today! She's very energetic and enthusiastic! She's another one which never fails to disappointment!
Ensemble: EXCELLENT. No words could describe how good they were.
After the show, I rushed down to the stage door. And James was there with some friends and family chatting. I went up to him and got his picture and autograph on one of the postcards. Then George came out and he and James started chatting. And Joey came out and then a BUNCH of girls ran up to him and scream and hugged him. I was like ! George and James were like 'what the hell?' . Then Leon came out and I got his autograph and picture. Then I went to James and asked him whether he's coming back to perform on Fri. He confirmed me that he's performing on Friday night and Saturday matinee. Then I got George's autograph and picture. I waited for abit more and Ann came out and I got her autograph. I told her that I saw the show 3 times now and she said 'that's why the show's completely sold out. Because you come and watch and support us too frequently!' She's a REALLY lovely lady! Then Tim came out with his child and all the three Billys were playing with him. Then I left and went back home.
