I imagine it must be must annoying to sit behind someone who is recording an entire show on their phone.

rumours are flying that this is a drive in performance... would that be possible?

I’m gonna guess it’s some sort of drive in event with the cast, seeing as the video says “prepare your carriages”.

I’ve just seen on the London Theatre Direct website that there is a new attraction for this summer called “The Drive In”, situated at Troubadour Meridian Water. Guessing this announcement will be an evened hosted there.

Think I’d consider the two & a half hour drive to Enfield for a bit of live theatre. Do you get a speaker in your car/tune your radio into it or will there just be sound folding back all over the shop?

Perhaps a Drive-In event at Hampton Court Palace? There is a large car park there !

I've had an email from See tickets saying that tickets are on sale for performances from 4th August although on the website they only start from 29th Sept so could be that it's opening earlier than expected

To adhere to the social distancing rules they’d end up with an audience of about 100!

I was surprised when the email came through - thought 29th September was being optimistic so bringing it forward seemed insane. I've not seen it yet, being on a very tight budget I can't spend that amount on a show that's 75 minutes long and the cheap seats are rarely available although right now there seem to be plenty at under £30 so might take the plunge once I know whether or not I'm being made redundant!

Very pleased to see this is branching out and going regionally instead of only being London

We might do this- I know littlest would love it. I’m just trying to work out what venue would be best...

So thrilled they're doing this. Wondering how it's going to work with alternates- one of the articles said they are bubbling cast for rehearsals & performances "in groups of six (lucky for us)".
Would be interested to know if all the leads are going or if alternates are going to fill certain roles full time.
What's the plan if it rains...?

Some of the alternates have tweeted this morning about being excited for this - so I assume they will also be part of the bubble as well.

Aw yes. Think we're going to book Cheltenham.
I was wondering how it works for musicians as well if they're bubbling in groups of 6 but then I guess that's not the max size a bubble could be? I'm not very up to date with the advice.

It's good that shows like Six are doing this and embracing doing things in a different way, could be a real boost for the show when the show eventually reopen.

I'm excited for this idea and I don't even have a car! I'm happy to see this kind of innovation while we have to deal with... well, everything.

I saw a tweet that described this version of the show as "Divorced. Beheaded. Drive!"

Cherelle Jay will be playing Anna of Cleves for the venues that the West End cast are doing.

Exciting for everyone who's been able to go. Unfortunately i don't drive and nobody in my household or family are interested.
