I, for one, am very excited to be going to London at the end of September, to see this newly revised production with a BOBBIE rather than the usual male BOBBY...and the cast will also include a gay couple mixed in with the other Bobbie friends!...anyone else going, or excited to see this?...

Yes!!! Already have flights booked to London in the fall mainly to see this show and also other ones that we don't have here on Broadway (The Inheritance, Lehman Trilogy). So excited!

Here's a short youtube clip of Rosalie:

And another youtube clip (this time Rosalie interview.) I just realized Marianne Elliott is directing it so I'm more excited now too on her take on this Sondheim classic!

I’m seeing it in October. Haven’t been this excited for a Sondheim production since the 2011 FOLLIES. I hope it can get recorded, transfer to New York etc.

BUMP...doing so because,  as i am only 2 weeks from my trip to London and seeing this revised production in the West End...the buzz over there has been building, not so much over here for seeing for what i think will be this exciting production...all the script and casting changes are very interesting and as someone who has seen almost every iteration, including the 1970 original Broadway cast...minus Dean Jones...i am more than excited for this...

I noticed today the poster has started to make its way in tube stations. It's a beautiful poster I think!

I had a dream that this announced it was transferring to the Stephen Sondheim Theatre this spring and I was incredibly bummed when I realized it wasn’t real

I'm going the second week of October.  Very much looking forward to seeing how this will be done.  Coincidentally, I saw Rosalie Craig in The Ferryman in the same theater when I was over there earlier this year.

Cant wait to hear back from everyone! This will surely tie us all over until the Sondheim/Ives show shows itself again!
