Swapsies

It seems like there's a game of swapsies going on between the West End and Broadway. Or at least swapsies with shows I've seen in New York.

We send over 'A Little Night Music' from the tiny Choccy Factory to Broadway and it reciprocates with 'Hair'. It then sends over 'Fela!', the show about Fela Kuti and his afrobeat sound which I'm told will open at the National Theatre in November. I'll be there.

That just leaves 'South Pacific' and (ahem) 'Next To Normal'. The former is brilliant, the latter less so.

Still, I'm looking forward to welcoming the hippies from 'Hair' to these shores - we need a new love generation (maaan). Buy tickets now!
