Don't know Alex, same thing has been pointed out to me too, actually I'm the Ollie jinx as both times I've seen him he's been injured (didn't have to leave the show though). I'm really terrified about Saturday...
See you then!
THats a point Athina, we need to eliminate any risks associated with Saturday, perhaps you should donate your ticket to the Big Issue seller and spend your evening in the little Greek Taverna arond the corner
An ex-Regular and someone who was Passionate about the show but who has now found the rest of the WEST END.

Good thing I won't be there Saturday. My "jinx" percentage isn't all that good, as I've seen the show about 30 times and have had 2 Billy changes (Corey Snide/Travis Yates and Tommy Batchelor/Trent Kowalik) as well as one other show that was stopped at the interval and not continued.
Was there on Monday, too. And it was my first "Billy-Change"-Situation. But nevertheless Scott is an adorable Billy and I'm hoping I can catch him for a full show one time. But Aaron was adorable as well, cause I think it's not easy to put in during the running show (after the intermission I think it's easier). Phil was a great dad, and I could hardly contain myself to laugh constantly when he struggeld permanently with his shirt, which slipped out all the time (couldn't they sew adequate long shirts for the bigger actors?)
The Mr. Braithwaite cover (I don't know his name) was very funny.He protrayed Braithwaite as a slowcoach, but when he did "Boogie" he really was a rocket.

It is a great show that people do come and see. Because it's not
just a show for adults, or just for children, or just for people that
like theatre, I'd say for everyone, and it's got so much emotion
behind it. Because who ever comes and sees it, feels the story -
so I think: it's brilliant!" (GM)
I saw handsome young Mr Aaron Watson perform as Billy for the first time on wednesday 22 Sept. He was absolutely fantastic. I'm so glad i got to see him now as i missed him by a day when i was in London early August. Aaron has loads of charisma and he smiles the whole time. He has been a long time coming but is now finally here and giving great energetic performances. I hope to see more of him in the future.
If any forum members are going to the 2.30.show tomorrow,25th Sept. could one of them give a short review by next Wed.
