This is the cinema cast too isn't it, looks perfect!

After revisiting this production live last year, I booked my ticket for the Australian showing on 23 October - for Saturday 25 January!

I know we don't comment on the dancing in rehearsals but will just say it is worth the price of the ticket for James Hay's facial expressions- priceless actually!

I know it's not the correct etiquette to comment on the specifics of the rehearsal - but it was beautiful and I loved it! I can't wait for Wednesday! Perfect. Well done, to all! :)

If it's the exact same cast on Wednesday, everyone is in for a treat! I'll be there and am really looking forward.

Lovely to have a performance which was uplifting - made a great start to the week.

Ditto! :) I left with a big smile on my face and a lovely warm feeling.

 

I was in the front row Balcony today, a first for me, and I liked the view I got and it was a different perspective from what I'm used to. I'm back in the stalls on Wednesday (and praying not to get a tall person in front of me!) and am looking forward to experiencing that view again.

 

I had such a lovely time tonight! Company in the intervals was first class too! :)

You hardly ever can.  Or is that just me?

Between me and my DD trying full out, we managed to get one Friday rush ticket for tonight.

 

DD is super excited… And I am firmly the best mother ever 😆

Does anyone know why in the last Cinderella run a few of the early shows finish with the curtain reopening and showing Cinderella and prince on the stairs (and they weren't filmed performances) but the majority of the shows didn't...and then last night they returned to opening up the curtain again?

Possibly its the BIG ending for the cinema relay?

The ones I saw them reopen the curtain weren't filmed performances....well, at least one wasn't as it was a completely different cast (which was Steven McRae)...I can't remember if it's reopened on the blu ray
