Sadly Jodie won't be availible. She is doing Shirley Valentine until October, then doing the tryout of new musical Fat Friends in Leeds and I beleive she is also doing panto, bur I may be wrong? So she would only be able to do it if the show extends.

I can see it being a soap star getting the role.
My dream casting would be Jane Lynch, she played Miss Hannigan on Broadway but the chances of that happening are very slim lol

I wonder if TodayTix will be offering rush tickets for this as well. |

thank you Daniel. I was just wondering as a local society are doing it and are trying to be wonderfully inventive, by building a set made of blue jigsaw pieces. This drives me mad. my first instinct when I direct or design a show from scratch is to deliberately rethink the show. Obviously some pieces are dependent on a big staircase or helicopter or whatever, but there is nothing worse than seeing a production that is a pale copy of someone else's design, especially when this other design is so distinctive. be original, for heck's sake.
