*Obligatory condolences for all those out of work as a result of this closing, hope that the actors, technicians and everyone involved with the production are all able to find work quickly, but I remain joyous that this show's oppressive reign over the Playhouse theatre is over, hallelujah!

Odd they've only given it two weeks - I actually greatly enjoyed this show when I saw it. It was very very entertaining. It would be nice to have a play there, yes, but I would actually like some new musicals in London - there have been many plays this year in other theatres...
