I need it to transfer before the end of November...


Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist. Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino. This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more. Tazber's: Reply to Is Stephen Schwartz a Practicing Christian

Yeah, I hope it transfers because it's almost impossible to get tickets at Royal Court for this production

Going tomorrow, I'll let you know if the play lives up to the reviews, but very excited by this one

Saw this last week and thought it was terrific.


Not as dark as Lieutenant of Inishmore, but still full of McDonagh's black humor, blistering dialogue, and unexpected plot twists.  The whole cast was great, with special mention going to David Morrissey and Johnny Flynn.


I'd think that a West End transfer is a good bet. And, with reviews like these, it will probably cross the Pond at some point.
