re: UK TOURS NEXT YEAR

So Excited about seeing woman in white on that list. I really hope it is true. I will be in London In February, but will travel to any part of Englad to see WIW. Doesn't it start in Milton Keyes in January?
...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...

re: UK TOURS NEXT YEAR

So glad to see OurHouse on there! one of the best shows i have seen for such a long time! i would love to see it again!
#7

re: UK TOURS NEXT YEAR

I second that - LOVED Our House!! Not quite sure about Acorn Antiques without the original cast though...

So is Gone with the Wind touring then? I'd heard it was looking for a London berth, but an out-of-town tryout can't hurt I suppose re: UK TOURS NEXT YEAR

re: UK TOURS NEXT YEAR

yes gone with the wind is touring first(why they are dragging this out again i dont know as i heard this was awfull when it played in the 70s at drury lane lets hope the changes to it are good)

Is that in Manchester? I assume it is. A bit of a trek from London, but I will do anything for WIW!

re: UK TOURS NEXT YEAR

What about Bombay Dreams and Our House?
#21

re: UK TOURS NEXT YEAR

The Hairspray tour is off????? Noooooooooooo, gutted! I wonder if that will go to the Piccadilly where Guys and Dolls is at the mo. Hhhmmm... It would b gud if Patrick Swayze is touring with Claire Sweeney, i think its at the Alexandra Theatre in Birmingham over Christmas, not sure tho.
#22

re: UK TOURS NEXT YEAR

Its Nigel Harmen and Claire Sweeney in the UK Tour.

A set has now become available for Hairspray (Las Vagas show closed) Clear Channel havent, as yet, confirmed London for Hairspray, however 2007 will see Hairspray more than likley in the UK - tour prior to WE or WE straight away. I do know that Guys and Dolls houses have been down and they are really taking a sort of "last shot" of boosting houses for Guys and Dolls with Swayze. Guys and Dolls is also a Clear Channel show and so I'd say if Hairspray does come straight to London it will be at The Piccadilly in replacement of Guys and Dolls - however - the theatre maybe too small. I did also hear the show is looking at The New London...a reallyuseful theatre who was originally and coming to house the show when it was coming in 2005.

re: UK TOURS NEXT YEAR

Thats still gud, Nigel Harmans a gooder choice than any. As you say, Patrick Swayze is a very subtle marketing ploy for Guys and Dolls! I just hope that Hairspray does manage to tour at some point, it is stirring a lot of interest and feel it would be a great success over here. Thankyou for the info.
#24

re: UK TOURS NEXT YEAR

well according to the confomation letter the palace has its patrick swayze doing the tour but hey im sure there both great

The las vegas set for hairspray will NEVER be used in this country as its huge so the fact the vegas show has closed really makes no difference.

As for bombay and our house i havent heard anything new as yet

also Carrie is set for uk national tour in 2007
