I'm in a similar boat though I'm slightly in the dark on how to get a refund I have sent the box office an email and I hope to hear from them ASAP.

Hope it wasn't TodayTix as they aren't refunding only providing a voucher worth 110% of price paid.

Bear with them, as you can imagine it’s an incredibly difficult time with a lot of people asking them questions and wanting their issue dealt with immediately - all the while the poor folk dealing with your refund are worrying about whether they’ll have a job in a few weeks if not less than that.

Sorry if this has been covered already.
Does anyone know when the cast recording is likely to be released?
Thanks.

I wonder if big musicals like PoE will be able to weather the storm and effectively have a reopening in the Summer/Autumn.

I mean I don't know, am just guessing. But knowing what a nightmare the UK theatre industry seems to find getting cast recordings out at the best of times (Broadway do it SO much quicker), this certainly won't help!

But isn't it mostly an American production team and didn't they tweet that the album is pretty much ready for release? If so, it would be a shame not to and generate at least a little revenue for everyone involved.

I just received a mail from the Dominion to say that my ticket will automatically be refunded.
They didn't even offer the option of a voucher or rebooking.
That doesn't bode well for PoE ...

What a shame. I really hope it doesn’t come to it. Does make you wonder whether future bookings were already looking bleak.

Releasing it would be the least they could do to preserve memories of the show if it does end up being this short-lived.

If this is true, perhaps they could do something about the vastness of the Dominion and curtain off the side/rear stalls & circle to reduce capacity. Sure, take them down if you think you’ve any chance of filling it, but by making it a smaller theatre wouldn’t it be more appealing to the shows searching for a home?

All future performances of Prince of Egypt are no longer available to book on the Nederlander website. From the PoE website: Whilst we await further advice from the UK Government, all performances for 27 April onwards have been suspended until further notice. In order for us to serve our audiences the best we can, please do not get in touch with your point of sale if you have booked for performances after 27 April, but please be reassured that if we do have to cancel future performances you will be directly contacted by your theatre or ticket provider. We will continue to provide updates as additional information becomes available. We look forward to welcoming you back to the theatre as soon as we are allowed to resume performances.

Curtaining off bits of the Dominion is something that people often say. I don't think it would work as it is a vast space. Even if you curtain off the back, you still have a huge void which needs to be filled with audience noise or the place would feel dead anyway. Besides, the sheer running costs won't change so it wouldn't be any more attractive to producers. It's an interesting building. There's also an upper balcony which is permanently closed off...you can see it here: link

Isn't there a rehearsal space or something up there? The musical Hugo Cabaret directed by Christopher Wheeldon and starring Linzi Hatley recently used it for workshops.

...although I was really looking forward to a Hugo Cabaret. Hugo’s Weaving & Speer could both do a turn, Hugo from the Vicar of Dibley could do a reading and Hugo Boss could give us a fashion show. The height of hugo-centric entertainment. 😘
