Oh dear, what a blow they have had. almost ready to open after all these years, and then the stage has a fire, and with the fire and subsequent water damage, the production, I gather, has been cancelled for this year. My reading of French is not great but that was the gist. They were practically open, and even had a sitzprobe after the fire, but the damage was worse. The French don't have much joy with our style of musicals, but in recent years they've had many Sondheim and Singin' in the Rain and such at the Chatelet and all was looking upbeat. This is a blow, an expensive one.
