Could be good, Nadim did a great job with Broken Wings.
Full album is also on Spotify for this.

Just been listening to this on Apple Music. Orchestra is wonderful and singing great but the music is all very "samey", found it a bit boring I'm afraid.

Have listened to this many times since the album was released and I think it's absolutely stunning. To each their own, as always, but personally I don't think that it's samey. It's hugely varied and combines many styles very well, and doesn't sound like anything else out there at the moment. Could listen to Soophia Foroughi sing all day long and Ramin leading a show again in London will be wonderful. Will be booking when this is on sale.

On sale now. £150 for what I would consider decent seats. Seems expensive but then so was/is Hairspray and I've had three great seats @ £25 for that so it's a wait and see for me.

£150 for an unknown and untested musical no-one's heard of?! Pricing really has gone mad. Definitely hold off, there will be deals everywhere for this nearer the time.

I love the recording and was really excited about this, but £85 for circle slips or rear circle in the barn of the Coliseum, and those are the cheapest seats in the first two levels! I'm not made of money over here ... definitely holding out for deals.

I initially balked at the prices too, but then had a look around the Coliseum website and it definitely just seems in line with (or is cheaper than) everything else that is on there. I guess it’s a sign of the times and the venue. At least we’re not at Broadway prices (yet!) here in London. Box office site shows that there are over 400 seats per show priced at £25-35, but I think I’ll also wait for deals rather than be in the upper few levels. The album is stunning, great cast and score.

Has anyone came across any decent deals for this yet? 9 days to the first of the two performances and not even 50% sold yet... inevitably will be deals at some point...

I'm still waiting, could have had a seat filling opp. elsewhere on Tuesday bit holding out for a late discount or Rush for this. Sales have picked up but still about 500 unsold for each night.

I've given up on seeing Rumi now. Sales seem to have picked up and there've not been any further offers for tonight as far as I know.

Yes, I guess I was expecting too much. Having snagged very cheap seats for my previous attendances at the London Coliseum, all shows with more obvious commercial appeal, I thought this was a cert to need heavy discounting.
Good for the venue and all involved in the show that it's had decent support.
