Michael Riedel of the New York Post has added more fodder to the possibility of the up-coming concert version of Chess, at Royal Albert Hall May 12 and 13, may lead to a West End or New York revival.
There's a current rumor that the previously announced upcoming concert version of Chess, being presented in London, may head into the West End if successful at the two-night run in the Royal Albert Hall in May.
