Here's a link to the UK "Chicago" tour. http://chicagothemusical.com/uktour.php
"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

The Rocky Horror tour is awful. They have turned it into a pink, camp fluffy show. It's lost all its quirky, alternative B movie qualities, that guaranteed the show's longevity. A shame really, as the cast are fantastic, especially Diana V.

Saw Dianna Vickers a few years ago in the West End production of Little Voice and she was great in that. It seems X Factor stars are getting a second chance of success in West End musicals and touring musicals. As also saw X Factor Amilia Lily in American idiot and she was also great.

Deservedly so, saw Chicago last night in Dartford and admit tingly not a lover of the piece in the first place and has left me cold, but sometimes a show can be better on the road, which wasn't the case here.

I was excited when I saw the announcement of Chicago but not too keen on the cast...debating on whether to invest in some tickets or not!

It seem you can not please everyone at the theatre.
