Cast Change Review

Mar 28, 2010 13:15

The drama of the night really started before the 27th had even come around with rumours that a certain person was going to be in the crowd and we weren’t disappointed. About ten minutes before the curtain went up for Act 1 Kerry Ellis was whisked into the theatre where she sat in the middle in about row G or H. I had a pretty good view of her from ( Read more... )

Sounds amazing! To me, the show isn't going to be the same without Alexia, Dianne and Oli...well, any of those cast members really! They were the first and only ones I've seen live so far and always will hold a special place in my heart. <3

Dianne has been my only Glinda apart from seeing Sarah so she will be hard to let go of, same with Oli.

sounds amazing kate! sounds like you had a lot of fun/crying ;)! I'd love to go see it in London! Maybe when I have my internship in England in September!

Maybe! Although I would suggest going when Sarah Earnshaw is on as Glinda.

Love your in depth review. <3 I wish I'd been there so much, Dianne's always been my Glinda. Sounds like an amazing night though!

It really was!

I see you didn't miss the fact that Kerry was there ;)

badlee March 28 2010, 22:20:24 UTC

Of course not. :D it was far too good an opportunity.

Awesome sauce and holy carp thats a lot of people leaving all at once. O_O It didn't sink in until this post why you were so ~distraught about the cast change, I knew it was big, but WHOA ITS HUGE. lolz

all in all sounds like a brill experience! cheers!

It was amazing but yeah, we lost our entier principle cast and almost all the ensemble. There are only two people I know staying, our beautiful and talented standby Glinda Sarah Earnshaw and our brilling u/s Bq George Ure who is going up to principle! But yeah, we are loosing Oli who has been there since the begining and Di who has been there for 3 years. :(

Thanks so much for the review!

I really really wish I could have been there, for Dianne and Oli especially. Plus I'm glad to hear Sabrina got a big cheer!

Yep, she got a cheer. Especialy from me, she was a brilliant Elphaba.
