Shouldn't we have a casting announcement soon? Or at least some leaks/hints?

Just had a look at tickets for Manchester and there are seats going for £25 (both stalls and upper circles) if anyone is still wanting to go. Just booked a stalls seat at that price.

Amsterdam has now announced the cast for "their" leg of the tour, so I assume it will be the same cast for Manchester and the other international tour stops.
The leads are Kevin Clay (Price), Conner Peirson (Cunningham), Nicole-Lily Baisden (Nabulungi), William Hawksworth (McKinley), Ewen Cummns (Mafala), Johnathan Tweedie (Joseph Smith) and Thomas Vernal (General)
Ensemble: Sanchia Amber Clarke, Jed Berry, David Brewis, Melissa Brown-Taylor, Chinasa, Tre Copeland-Williams, George Crawford, Jordan Lee Davies, Jemal Felix, Patrick George, Isaac Hesketh, M-Jae Cleopatra Isaac, Evan James, Alex James-Hatton, Nicole Louise, Fergal McGoff, Jesus Reyes Ortiz, Lawrence Rowe, Lukin Simmonds, Chomba S Taulo, Brad Veitch, Tommy Wade-Smith, Sharon Wattis, Jacob Yarlett.

The rest of the cast are mostly British.

I’ve just booked for Sunderland today, perfect timing that the cast is announced at the same time!
I actually managed to get a good deal on tickets which is rare for the Empire. £13 at the back of the stalls, which didn’t seem so bad.

The rest of the cast are mostly British. I was surprised too. I've seen both Conner and Kevin a few times and they're excellent, and I knew they weren't done when they left Broadway and the tour earlier this year — until I heard a rumor about this last week, though, I didn't expect their last gig to be the UK/international tour!

The Walloons may have to say a thing or several about that Interestingly the Amsterdam run, despite being a month long, has been selling very well with some performances nearly sold out and an additional week of performances just announced. Meanwhile the Cologne run, despite being less than half as long (10 days) hasn't been selling out at all with lots of availability. I sometimes despair of my countrymen. Give them vampires or oversized animatronic apes and they go nuts...

A friend of a friend once pitched ‘Gorillas in the Mist’ the musical to Sigourney Weaver at the Empire awards, going into ridiculous detail about a gorilla kick line etc. Apparently she was bemused but very sweet about it. Did you go and see King Kong?

Has this announced any dates in January yet? I think it may be in the big gap in January at the Festival Theatre, Edinburgh. They announced their new season today but with a big long gap between the ballet at Christmas and another production.
That slot has been reserved for the big musicals as of late. We had Miss Saigon in 2018, and then Les Mis this year.

Did you go and see King Kong? You couldn't have dragged me kicking and screaming into that theme park nonsense. There's only one ape I like seeing from time to time and that's our @theatremonkey. As long as he promises not to sing.

My tickets for the show in Sunderland arrived this morning, which confused me as I didn't realise I had chosen to have them delivered.
Slightly different ticket layout to other ATG Sunderland tickets which also confused me. All one font, the venue name isn't at the very top and the price/booking fee are right in the middle.
