Thought we had a thread for this but I can’t see one...
I really liked this. Oliver Saville looks like a very handsome chap who works in the city, makes a lot of money and is charming but unhappy. He was a great Bobby
Anita Louise Combe was a wonderful Amy, one of the best.
Ashleigh Gray sang great but wasn’t old enough looking and unfortunately not monstrous enough for Joanne . Will anyone ever be as good as Sheila Gish?
If I’m going to pick I would say the choreography and comedy could be stronger.
The set was a angular white box with 6 entrances and centre stage was a black masculine leather sofa. Presumably a metaphor for a psychiatrists couch? It worked for me.
Company can be a long show. Thankfully a lot of the voicemail and present chit chat was cut so it was quite lean.
Is Tick Tock ever staged? It wasn’t here, musically it is dated. This production did not feel dated, timeless infact.
To quote another Uncle Steve show “I’m so glad I came”
Bobby blew out the candles before singing Being Alive. So his wish was the content of the prayer like song. It really worked. Perhaps the best I’ve ever seen it
