They should sell virtual tickets, so people outside the UK can see it!

Ok, I just want to be able to see it after missing out in August last year.

  • I saw this today and it was fun and cute. I don't think it's anything particularly special and it suffers from the same issue that happens with Jukebox Musicals where a lot of the songs felt shoe-horn

  • I finally saw this in Leicester at the weekend. Such a lovely show, great fun and many of the songs fit in so naturally in a musical environment (not you 5,6,7,8). After The Love Has Gone and Heartbe

They definitely ought to do that. Or film it if there are no further runs planned.

The only thing I thought could have perhaps been interesting is more relevant album tracks included, a bit like Mamma Mia had several in there that fit the plot like Our Last Summer and Slipping Through My Fingers.

Something like Happy could have fit in very nicely. I think there's more scope to get away with deeper cuts in jukebox musicals, where people want to take in lyrics as part of the overall story narrative rather than slinking out in a concert to the toilet/bar when they hear a song that they don't know well.

Also, When I Said Goodbye would have fit from the discarded singles, it's interesting that the only single exclusions were some of their lesser regarded hits, yet some of these songs would have fit the narrative better and sound more 'musical' than some that felt shoehorned in a bit.

I agree.

Obviously I haven’t seen it so I could be way off but I feel like Back To You and maybe This Heart Will Love Again from Step One would work. As might Happy Go Lucky from Buzz.

Give one of Faye’s solos a try out! Since You Took Your Love Away especially
