Very flexible-looking stage. I hope they record how the LTROI set looks.
Long lead time if it won't play for a year from now. :think:

Wow. Talk about up close and intimate. You'd be able to smell the blood. :shock:

I would so love to see a live production of LTROI, I hope one comes near me at some point!
perhaps one did not want to be loved so much as to be understood

Yeah, it hasn't come near Atlanta, either. Its first production in the US was in Brooklyn and was mostly by the cast of the UK productions. I saw it in Austin, too, with a homegrown cast, although it, too, was a reprise of the UK staging. Hoping for something nearby and a different look to the Jack Thorne script. And, really, something less stylized and more of the realistic and down-to-earth grittiness of the film.

Yes! That would be the dream!
