What's the update on Brooke Shields in West End's Chicago?

Looking to buy my West End tickets in the next couple of days. Debating between Woman In White, Les Mis and Chicago. Can anyone tell me if Brooke's confirmed to appear on the West End, and if so, when does she start? I Googled "Brooke Shields Chicago West End" and I couldn't find any official start date. I don't know if that should tell me something.

Oh, and while I'm at it, anyone else have suggestions for things to do in London and other shows I absolutely must, must see? I'll be there at the end of April. (I imagine this thread is best saved for the West End board, but I don't like talking to myself. )

Thanks for the head's up, muscle23ftl. How long ago did she confirm it and tell you? I wonder if anything's changed. There's curiously little coverage about it.

if i were u i would def check "joseph" and "woman in white" just to get to see maria friedman.

Yes, Brooke is definitely (at the very least) in rehearsals... she had her press pictures done what seems like ages ago, even though it was only about a month or so. She should be starting soon.

Im not sure on a time frame, but I can see if I can find out for you. I would think by summer..... I can find out for sure though.

I think you should check out "Mary Poppins" as well........great show and lots of fun.
