It's clearly written with a New York audience in mind, I'm sure a transfer has always been the goal. Hopefully they will fix the second part, which at times feels a bit of a let down after the excellent first one.

I think it's unlikely. a part from the physical and emotive traumas, she will be very pregnant by then, she'd still need to leave London in the middle of the run.

It's not the full West Side Story, it's just the score, it's scheduled to last 76 minutes. But that's beyond the point, if you're doing WSS you should always a Latina Maria.

Yes, as above, but it's a West End show so they don't have free playbills to send, you'd better include a photo you'd like him to sign. And if you are American make sure to include an international stamp. I'm sure he will reply.

Actually it's called passion from the Latin "patior", which means "to suffer".

AlfredDrakeII said: ""I raised the same question. There’s so much talent and it seems (i haven’t seen it yet but based on others peoples posts) that Jessie Mueller is under utilized. After coming from Beautiful and Waitress - you got to wonder."
Mueller is a deeply intuitive actress, and part of her strength lies in her great instincts and in-the-moment presence. Bearing in mind that nobody ever sets out to put up a BAD Broadway production, if the rep
Hampstead has a very large Jewish community and many patrons that go to that theatre are indeed Jewish. I found myself grinning at that line, not because it's funny - it's actually quite horrifying - but because it's a very peremptory and self-assured theological opinion, especially coming from a woman who thinks the devil made the dryer.
