London Phantom target June 5 reopening Dec 3
2020, 06:34:11 PM
We are lucky, lucky we have the producers and creatives willing to pretty much do it for not much profit bar minimal fees!
I think we will see a number of larger shows that were running prior to pandemic and essentially waiting to come back in full, announce their firm plans to reopen between April and July.
However, the other half of the battle to reopen, and be successful, is London back with tourists...

The show aims to reopen to normal capacity measures, subject to social distancing relief, from June 5th 2021

No involvement with Roundabout or RSC. It’s based on the 2011 Broadway revival but it will be a new production, produced by Trafalgar Entertainment.

There is a ban on 6 people plus meeting collectively, therefore can only sell in quantities of no more than 6. Bubble burst seating tech will mean when people book the seats around will also go, meaning people stay within the guidelines and social distancing. It has been approved by council. It will mean most venues can only play at 35-50% capacity max.
UK positive tests are increasing and have imposed more stricter rules following this. Death rates remain very low. Thea

What planet are you from? There is no way that anything is opening in 2020. Dream if you want, but you will be in for a huge disappointment. I have already adjusted my expectations, and it has actually helped. I have not received refunds for MMand a couple of shows I already had tickets for in the fall, but I know that I will at so

It may not happen but it’s not delusional. A target date has to be in place for the industry to work towards and start making plans to move a few pieces. Will it be the full bells and whistles return, probably not. Could it be, yes."
Sorry, but it IS delusional. There is no scenario in which it would be viable, and more to the point, no producer in their right mind would pull

Depends on time... but immediately springs to mind is Mean Girls. Also Harry Potter, it’s been struggling to land. It’s gross has not been in the mega league for such a title and size house. Struggle to get an audience to visit a show? You’ve got double struggle to get them to spend a whole day or two repeated nights.
Tina, Diana, Girl From North Country, Jagged worry me as time goes on... possibly followed by Aint too proud, West Side

This is sad to read, but not too shocking or something to start getting completely dismayed about.
No doubt it’s been bought forward by this awful situation and it’s so sad the production never got to end properly, but an end of Summer or year closure was always on the cards unless fortunes turned on Frozen, prior to Covid, it was not performing where it should be.
I think Disney are being smart. Aladdin and The Lion King are more robust to survive in

I don’t think they will, or need to, make any comment or announcement until End of June when rehearsals are due to start.
It’s obviously likely they will not be able to rehearse but it’s not completely out the realms of possibility, it’s also not out the realms of possibility that during June a clearer picture of a what delay past Sept will be required. Oct, Nov, Spring 2021... it’s still too early to call firmly and to mak
