All of the other reviews will feature Darius & either Sheridan or Natasha. The rest of the tour cast remains the same.

 

The leads are joined by a cast including Nigel Barber (Florenz Ziegfeld), Zoë Ann Bown (Mrs. Meeker), Martin Callaghan (Mr. Keeney), Jennifer Harding (Emma), Rachel Izen (Mrs Brice), Joshua Lay (Eddie) and Myra Sands (Mrs. Strakosh).

 

Also starring in the show are Rhianne Alleyne, Kit Benjamin, Lloyd Davies, Flora Dawson, Joseph Dockree, Abigayle Honeywill, Brontë Lavine, David Mcintosh, Peter Nash, Gillian Parkhouse, Tom Partridge, Nova Skipp, Alexandra Waite-Roberts, Sam Wingfield and Alexandra Wright.

 

 

 

Tom Partridge was Darius's understudy. Alexandra Waite Roberts was Natasha' s, Nova Skip was Rachel Izen's.

It took me a few moments to remember that Darius Campbell – yes, that Colourblind crooner and ex-Pop Idol contestant – was playing the role of Nick Arnstein. He was slick, suave and utterly believable as the tall, dark and handsome man who suddenly swishes into Fanny’s life. He’s putting his fantastic singing voice to good use on the brightly lit stage and it really suits him.

Darius has done more Funny Girl shows than anyone, including Sheridan, and he's done most of the local media interviews etc. for the show. Natasha J Barnes also did quite a bit too both with Darius and solo.

 

How often do the Funny Girl shows take place?

Saturday 19th August, Darius's birthday, were the last two shows on the tour.

 

In London they did 8 shows per week.

 

On tour if would depend on the distance between the venues, whether they could start on the Monday or not.

 

In Glasgow an extra matinee was added presumably because there was a high demand for tickets.

 

Birmingham had the House Full sign out for the whole week.

 

Edited because there are always two matinees.... So 3 in Glasgow not 2 like I said before.

Listening to an interview Darius did with BBC radio Manchester last week he did mention that the recording of funny girl will be in cinemas and also shown on sky like from here to eternity but he didn't say when. Sorry i can't post as you have to mess around registering to their website but i thought i'd let you all know the small piece of info i found out :dance:

Thank you Polly.

 

Yay! Two down - silver screen and Sky Arts. We just need confirmation of the DvD now.

.

He didn't mention anything about the dvd maybe he doesn't know yet

Surely they'll release one.

 

Obviously I personally am alright with Sky confirmed but not everyone has Sky or is able to access it by digital means. The producers must know that Sheridan's fans will expect one. She's unlikely to be able to fit it in again unless it was to be on Broadway for example.

I'm sure there will be one to. There was with from here to eternity.
He told me about it and the filming, so he does know and is looking forward to seeing the dvd
We can just use one of the other funny girl threads for news on the dvd if you like :D
