Was lucky enough to see this in December when I was last in London, simply glorious. Then my fan boying spiraled out of control when I realized I was sat 3 seats from Billy Porter.
I really enjoyed seeing Stephen Sondheim’s Old Friends at the Gielgud Theatre in London on Wednesday 27th September 2023 and it was absolutely fantastic
I really hope that this version, but more especially the original version that included so many more Sondheim protege's, comes out to buy. As a lifelong admirer of Sondheim's, I so want to see it....!
I tried getting a ticket to see Les Miz but it was either pay £200 for a seat or a cheaper one and see nothing of the show!! I decided to see this and I'm SO GLAD that i did!!
I’ve not even watched e seen it 3 times. This was theall of this. What a fab night this was. I’m also sure Ann Reid, a most wonderful actress was in the Lower Box. I’ve seen it 3 times. This was the very best. All this talent on stage together when was Julia McKenzie and Judi Dench AND Maria Freedman?
I was very lucky to have got a last minute ticket in the Dress Circle for this final performance. I had seen the show twice before from the front row of the Stalls (worth getting a crick in the neck to be so close to the multitude of talent on that stage) but the overall view from the Dress Circle was fantastic ❤
@@theHuntgoeson Insisted is the word. They had to be dragged on stage and it was lovely to hear the resurgent applause and cheers for them. Performers are visible and get the acknowledgment but obviously there are many behind the scenes staff without whom the show wouldn’t even go on let alone be brilliant.
