My mum is 56 and I would definitely take her to see ROA if some more tickets came up, or if I can get some at a good price. I would not however, take my children!

*shrugs* It's less than most American TV shows show nowadays. But perhaps I should reconsider getting us seats on the third row :giggle:

Me too. I am even hoping more SFF codes are posted so I can see the show again. :shifty:

I am considering b*ying the soundtrack. But I can only find the Broadway version. I don't think they have done a recording for the West End show. :(

I have the Broadway soundtrack if you'd like me to upload it for you? Recordings for West End Shows are sadly very rare and will only happen if the show's been running for years (and even then it more often than not won't).

But I have some videos from West End Live up on YouTube and made some more at the BBC Proms (where they performed different songs) on Saturday which I'll upload later this week. It's better than nothing, as the quality is okay and at least it's the UK cast
