Gosh, that's a big opportunity for Miki. She only graduated from ENBS in 2012.

And is already being noticed by the audience as well as the AD!

Exciting casting for the Triple Bill in Sunderland!  I can't wait to see Tyrone Singleton as The Hoofer with Celine Gittens...

Oh terrific, I get Jenna, Will and Celine.   I think that would have been my first choice.  My only grumble, no Tyrone, but on balance I'll take that.

I've just realised I posted the London Coliseum Pagodas casting in the wrong forum.  Here it is in its rightful place!

I was really looking forward to this one, but fear I'm going to have to cancel, so I may have some very cheap London-Birmingham rail tickets timed for tomorrow's matinee going spare.  Keep your eyes on the Tickets forum if you might be interested.

[Jan McNulty]

Sorry to hear that Alison.

 

Birmingham Fille casting has been posted:

Thanks, Janet .  I'm determined not to miss Fille as well, particularly since the casting looks generally good.

I was really looking forward to this one, but fear I'm going to have to cancel, so I may have some very cheap London-Birmingham (and return) rail tickets timed for tomorrow's matinee going spare.  Keep your eyes on the Tickets forum if you might be interested.

I have. It would be a shame for them not to be used.
