Wow!! Only three months before Mamma Mia arrives at the Palace Theatre in God's own city!!
The official website still lists the current tour cast but Manchester is, apparently, the first stop after the cast change so truths/rumours from other sites about the cast are:-
Jackie Clune staying as Donna, Katie Brayben as Sophie, Craig Adams as Sky and Alex Jessop as Eddie.
The last time I saw Craig Adams was in Joseph and the Amazing etc etc in a three quarter empty Tameside "Tip"-odrome. He was actually a pretty decent Joseph.
Any more rumours about the cast?

- Hmmmmmm, I've seen worse Tanyas in London (not mentioning any names but nobody in the current cast!) Tanyas? plural Iain  There was only one surely??? I loved both Kim and Kelly, i didn't ever worry about which one i'd have, cuz both were so great in their own right... Suanne is obviously in her element now...so i can only think of one...she who shall not be named  but who else?? |

Mmmmm...wonder who you could mean...  ha ha Loved the review from the Manchester Evening News...wish the pic was bigger...ha ha ha...they certainly don't help us MM fans with any pics from the shows do they??? Yeah, the one from thestage.co.uk was not as good, but loads better than the one they did for MM London...ouch! Don't know when they wrote it, but it was downright mean. I'm no critic, but love my MM and don't really care what the critics say...just these critics on the forum. I'm still throwing around the idea of catching them in Bristol...but I have no idea where I will be in one year's time...how the heck can I buy theatre tix that far in advance?! Ha ha! I can barely plan my life for next week! Thanks again Iain! |

Deliberately vague so you can draw your own conclusions but of the three Tanyas I've seen in London I loved Kim and Kelly! |

I think thats 16 in total - 13 London + 3 Manchester. The theatre tonight was half empty at the start of the show. You'd think that people would set off earlier when they know there's going to be 70,000 non-Mancunians jamming the motorways to get to the United game. Instead they arrive late and disturb everybody else in getting to their seats  Keep 'em out until the interval!!!! And, this doesn't generally happen in London, but here people insist on talking loudly all the way through the Overture Sorry, does this belong in the "Moaning" thread in the General Forum  Great show though, even if Donna's Middle aged menopausal man line did get the loudest round of applause and cheer of the night. I was keeping my head down at this point....as a middle aged menopausal man. |

Back to Newcastle for my MM fix on Sunday and I'm looking forward to seeing how people have progressed in their roles.
