Yes, I know this isn't the West End board, but this production flew under the rader for me. Now that I've read the reviews, I really wish I could see it--it sounds like Maria Friedman has directed a very clear eyed production.

I was in London last week and saw it. Really terrific. Between this, Trevor Nunn's Kiss Me, Kate, and the site-specific Taboo in Brixton, it has really been a great season for musical revivals in London.

I've even heard great things about a small production of Sweet Smell of Success which apparently Sondheim just recently attended.
