It was standing room only at Ronnie Scott’s for the London press launch of Sara Bareilles and Jessie Nelson’s Broadway musical Waitress, arriving at the Adelphi Theatre in February 2019, but luckily Caroline Hanks-Farmer was there filming all the chat and performances, including a guest appearance from popular US actor and singer Gavin Creel. Sit back and enjoy!
The Tony Award-nominated musical Waitress from Sara Bareilles and Jessie Nelson has its West End premiere at the Adelphi Theatre in February 2019, bringing an all-female creative team – a West End musical first – along in the process. So who do you see winning the bake off and scooping up that pie-making central role?
After the announcement of Dreamgirls last week, we're doubly gutted to hear that its neighbour along the Strand, fellow Broadway transfer KINKY BOOTS, will also be finishing its West End run on the very same day, 12 January 2019. How many times will you be able to see Charlie, Lola and the girls before the show closes? (Starting this weekend at West End Live perhaps?!)
West End LIVE 2018 is back – for an incredible 14th year – and we will be making sure you know everything there is to know about the event in Trafalgar Square on 16 and 17 June 2018. Starting with the packed list of shows queuing up to take part.
Oliver Tompsett and Natalie McQueen will step into the lead roles of Charlie Price and Lauren in the London cast of Kinky Boots alongside Simon-Anthony Rhoden who continues as Lola.
It's got to be one of the most heart-warming shows on the West End. KINKY BOOTS never fails to remind us the power of being true to yourself and thinking outside of the box! It may still be cold and wet, but this performance shines with more warmth than a summers' day! Our #PalladiumPicks choice this week is this happy little gem, performed live at the London Palladium...
These boots were made for walking, so that's just what they'll do!

Which of your #StageFaves do you want to see strutting their stuff on tour?

Watch the video of the celebrations here...
