I was just going to say assuming this gets good reviews it has to transfer, right?

I couldn't imagine better casting for this play right now.  These two would also be magnificent in The Goat, but that is asking for too much of a good thing.  I'm only sorry they won't be running at the same time as Tarantino's play, because I doubt I can afford two trips to London within such a short time.  I'll be taking one of those trips, though.  No doubt at all about that.

Interesting to see what Elliot does with this. I feel like I've only ever seen her work really big with musicals and her work on "Cock" i think was divisive.

I have never booked tickets so fast before! This will definitely be one of the most anticipated shows of the fall in London!
