There's something very funny about Million Dollar Quartet. I can't find the link but someone on the Broadway board posted a very interesting gossip piece from a blog by a purported show doctor talking about the connections the producers appear to have to get the show all kinds of publicity. Presumably they have friends in high enough places to fund a West End transfer?

If they've got deep enough pockets, the show can keep running on Broadway despite losing money until the perception in the provinces is that it's a success - then it'll do well on tour, because it's a touring audience kind of show. And if they do the same in London...

Bring on Rock of Ages, is all I can say.

Well, I do want to see American Idiot. But Rock of Ages is definitely coming next year, whereas it's unknown if American Idiot will ever make it across here. I daren't dream about such things, this is the West End we're talking about.

Thank god for our play scene.

I agree DeNada, I wish Rock of Ages would hurry up and announce when it is coming! I'm seeing it again in New York because im worried London might be called off.

I guess MDQ might do well in London, it is perfect what what audiences are going for nowadays.

I cannot see MDQ coming to London, it will not do the business, the only way it could worl it this toured the UK, then played London for a limited period.

Yeah American Idiot doing a european tour is a smart move
