Going this Saturday and Sunday in Manchester, after seeing it in Leicester in October and Dublin at the start of December. Think it will be my final 2 times seeing it as there really isn't anywhere else on the tour I can go to see it. Anywho, it opened in Manchester last night to what sounded like (in Wicked terms) a no fly show. It was indeed a no fly show! Well, the final flying anyway. It looked as if it was going to, but the wires were up and down a few times before it just didn't happen. A slightly bewildered Banks family staring into the audience at the end before spinning around to look backwards. Otherwise though... An incredible show.

Ticket arrived today for the final performance! I'm sad this is going away so soon and hope it finds a life and audience on the road and internationally.

I really enjoyed The Girls. Second Act was undoubtedly better than the first, but I thought there was a relevance in musical style for the story and setting. Some great performances, the photo shoot scene was handled with great comic timing and I thought there were some great songs too. Lovely idea for the set too and the end result of what happens with that is pretty stunning while simple (in a lovely and symbolic way).
