Hello. I’m planning on checking out two shows for sure while I’m in London at the end of the next month I’m going wondering what people have thought of the three shows (company? Everybody’s talking about Jaime? Tina? Hadestown?) and what they would recommend. Especially what to pick if u had to narrow it down to only two shows. Thanks

Company and Jaimie.

Ditto.

Although he's Jamie, not Spanish.

Hadestown - definitely.  Can't wait for it to open here!

 

Second - Company.   

 

I know lots of people will suggest Jaime - but that seems to be hit or miss, you either love it or hate it. (I have no personal opinion)

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Skip Jamie, most of the original cast has left and when I saw it earlier this month it seemed very cheap and tired, honestly.

I’d say Company and Hadestown, both will be fresh.

A recorded version or the original Jamie cast is showing is US theatres in November.  Maybe catch it and see one of the others? https://www.jamieincinemas.com/
