I think we knew that would happen. Running plays have more opportunity for people to see them.

Yes, the audience numbers are far greater than for GWTW in its limited run. But we can try.

Even if everyone who went out amazed at how good it was voted, he'd be in with a good chance.

unfortunately most of those will have no idea about the voting...

I know. It's such a shame.

oh well at least he was anominee, that stands for something, and keeps his name in peoples minds connected with the WE

Son's girlfriend has now voted! Sue

Funnily enough. so has my neighbour.

It's times like this I wish I had a bigger family! Sue

That seems a bit extreme. I'll just stick with the family I have.

I have voted and when I visit my son's I will vote on there P C's Chrism x

Just voted again! .....Darius is still in 3rd place at the moment! :(

There just aren't enough of us. :( Sue

No, I reached that conclusion, Sue. It's a shame, but we can only try.

Its just such a shame,its just not fair :( ,he so deserves to win this!I surpose all we can do is try our hardest!

 

I honestly don't know whether D actually DESERVES to win...............I haven't seen the other nominees in the other

nominated productions. But then I guess very few people have seen all the five shows. I have voted for Darius

because I considered his performance in GWTW to be exceptionally good. Unfortunately a comparatively small number

of people saw this show, with its limited number of performances, which means that Darius was handicapped from the

start.

That's the trouble. I voted because I thought he had really grown and, even the media, recoginised his talent and abilities.

Douglas Hodge (La Cage aux Follies), 23.8%

Ryan Molloy (Jersey Boys) 24.9%

Matt Rawle (Zorro) 17.0%

 

These three have each had excerpts televised in the Royal Command Performance.

It will be interesting to see if there is a related surge in voting.

 

(Darius 19.3%)

In actual fact, I don't think Darius would be over-impressed if he did win. Such awards as the Oscars are judged by a panel

of (presumably) well qualified judges, though even they are open to bias or bribery...........I don't mean financial bribery,

more the 'I'll scratch your back if you'll scratch mine' bribery. But at least such awards carry prestige. But this 'Whats on Stage'

award is based on public opinion and carries no great acclaim. It might boost his morale to recognise the public's confidence

in him, but I doubt he would cross the pond to accept the award. More likely he would delegate if he won.

On saying that, I would be delighted for him if he did win, and anything that brings news, especially photos, would be more

than welcome.

I still think that what the actual, real audience thinks of a show is best. You could use that to say that the critics were right about GWTW because they are critics.
