PQ is staying right where it is...YF NOT in Hilton#1

Heard from a tried and true source.
There was no visit from any of the Mel Brooks' team or Mel Brooks himself. Riedel fabricated this story with his so called "hear say" verbiage. General Manager at the Hilton assured all that this did not happen. It would be a breech of contract...the PQ is bringing in money and paying all the bills.

This thread is RIDICULOUS.
Reidel didn't fabricate this whole story. If he had, we would be hearing something by now from both THE PIRATE QUEEN and YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN.
While you may be a die hard devotee of THE PIRATE QUEEN (or PQ, as you insist on using) Reidel isn't in the practice of making up things or writing articles based on limp heresay.
I have no doubt in my mind that his article is 100% true, and that you are just a sad excuse for a shill.

PQ is of course Philip Quast, who else?
J/K - I know what PQ actually means.

Ahhhhh, I love Philip Quast. Looking forward to seeing him in 'Evita' again next month, and hoping he has many more exciting West End jobs in store!
Sorry, got a bit of a thing for Australian baritones... threadjack over...

Am I missing something?
YF was always slated for the St. James I thought.

Millie, check out the link in the first message in the thread linked below. That will answer your question.
YF to take the Hilton?

Yeah I have to side with Munk on this one. Riedel, though an ass, is rarely if ever wrong with his scoop (his personal predictions are another matter).
He would have been called to task by more official sources by now if it weren't true.
Doesn't mean YF will take the Hilton - but it doesn't mean the owners of the Hilton aren't keenly aware that PQ isn't going to be a very long tenant.

Although I liked the show, it is only a matter of time before it is forced to walk the plank for an extended stay in Davey Jones locker

It was announced to the tech crew at the St. James Theatre last night that YF would be going into the Hilton and not the St. James. I have family on crew!
