enjoyed it too, excellent musical, which might threaten my top ten musicals list.
Not only well put together, but for a rightful cause too (womens rights, still a problem today!). The lady who played Barbara Castle was awesome, better than Miranda!
Minor niggle - Farteton wasn't nearly as suited as Hawkins was in this role and her singing was often eclipsed by the other actors. is a bit weird when she stares out at the audience though - brown eyed people look like they are staring right at YOU when they look in your direction. Having a movie star stare at you is a bit freaky, I had the same unsettling feeling with "Varys" from Game of Thrones when he stared right at me in a play I saw last year.
Noteworthy that the role of a seemingly smaller name (Hawkins) is replaced on the (smaller) stage by someone with a bigger name. Felt odd. But its all good, in fact its a boon having movie stars trot their stuff for free in front of you!
fav 5 films of the year - Tenet, Bill n Ted 3, Invisible Man, JoJo Rabbit, ?
