Hey insiders!

Do we have any inclination/leaks that the West End production will have any changes? I'd imagine they'd want to keep it as was presented at The Shed (i'm planning on seeing it for a 2nd time across the pond) but didn't know if anyone had heard anything. I enjoyed it greatly and looking forward to seeing a (mostly) new cast inhabit this fun production.

Someone posted some small changes over on Theatre Board:

The first act appears to be unmodified from the 2023 production. The second act has some new dialogue in a few spots, I believe: a letter from Martha Plimpton’s character to her daughter Abby, some new dialogue between the Lieutenant and Fritz, and some new lines for Rory Kinnear, I think. But none of those changes felt like more than tweaks — they won’t improve the piece among its detractors nor reduce or increase the appreciation of those like me who are so grateful this work exists.

Thank you my friend! I assumed this work would be only slightly tweaked after its full run at The Shed. Thanks for your feedback and if ANYONE else gets any new... please feel free to share! #StaySondheimEveryone
