Here are some pictures from my recent trip to London!
WIW Marquis
Sadly, one of the quotes says "It will run and run!"
Anne!
How could you live without it?
WIW Collage at the palace theatre!
Hard to see, but a picture of the WIW stage at the palace, before the show started.
So sad!
LES MIS!!!
One of me in front of Her Majesty's theatre!
...What happened next, was stranger still, a woman breathless and afraid, appeared out of the night, completely dressed in white. She had a secret she would tell, of one who had mistreated her. Her face and frightened gaze, my mind cannot erase...But then she ran from view. She looked so much like you...

I would have died to see the London production of this show.
Great PICS!

I have to say that Elinor Collett stole the show as Ms Catherick!
Some other highlights for me were David Burt, Alexandra Silber, and Michael Cormick.
The only real dissapointment was Yvette Robinson as Marian. I was hoping to see Ruthie, but she had left. Yvette was hardly powerful enough and didn't have the voice. Since I saw Maria do it, I had high expectations!

Posted: 4/17/06 at 1:24pmi saw Maria and she was great as Marian. Maria was so funny...so dramatic...she gave a 100% every performance. Whoever missed this show is a loser!!! hehe....Ruthie is just amazing...she is like the new Liza. And Lisa Brescia's Marian was outstanding, she was brilliant.

I saw Elena Shaddow as Laura on Broadway, and what a voice!
I also got to see her in Carnival at the papermill, where I met her after the show and got to talk to her for a bit! She is such a sweet person and amazing performer!
If there was a best understudy award at the tony's My say is all for WIW understudies, including Lisa, Elena, Norman and the rest!

thecarlyle.com has the performance schedule and everything, but I see nowhere, where I can buy tickets for Maria. Help Nick! lol

Gorgeous pics...the Palace Theater is so beautiful and the WIW marquee there was even more impressive than Les Mis. It was just the perfect "feel" for a theatre for this show.
And they ran a loop of "highlights" from the show's original cast on TV screens outside the theatre...something that might have drawn more people in at the Marquis...

Posted: 4/17/06 at 5:53pmGreat pics. I have to say that Woman in White was one of my favorite shows I saw this year. I saw it when it opened on Broadway, and loved it. I think that it challeneged the audience, and sometimes a broadway audience, especially tourists, dont want to be challenged. But...ah well...short lived...but forever in my mind!!!

WIW is one of the 25 shows I've seen in London in the past 3 months..and one of my least favorites...
however the performers were so amazing that I hardly consider it a waste of money...but the show itself...ehh..just my opinion.
Ruthie was fantastic, Elinor and Alexandra also fantastic..the rest of the cast....ehhh....but it was real important these three women were as fantastic as they were.
and all that I could do because of you was talk of love...

So sad! When I was in NY only a short time after it closed and i saw the drowsey chaperone marquis go up, I was so sad!
Here is a pic of the marquis, the day i was supposed to go see it for a second time on Bway, but it was too snowy to even get to the train station!

Was the toy room at the very beginning different in London because it does not look the same as it did at the Marquis!
Thanks for those pics. It amkes me sad though, my pic with Maria didn't come out the night I met her and my pics of the theatre did not come out either. So seeing any besides my lost ones is joy! Thank you.

Its is the possessive. It's is the contraction for it is...

I noticed that too, did the London play out as a story within a toy?
Also, I tohught WIW was a hit in London, it even says "Sensational Year!" on the marquee. It seems like the knocked off both shows at the same time, it was all too fast.

Yup London was in its "Second Sensational Year" when it closed.
The toy room was the same, from what my memory recalls, but perhaps the picture depicts it differently, because it isn't as clear. The only apparent differences were really the size difference in the stages.
