7 Reasons You Should See Young Frankenstein the Musical

event_media-banner_lrg_zps0s17y0oe

I was lucky enough to get to see this incredible show three times when it held previews in Newcastle, I fell in love with the show and thought I would put together a list with some reasons why you just have to see it in the West End. It opens at the Garrick Theatre tonight for previews.

I don’t really remember a musical really pushing itself on TV shows like this one has to help raise awareness and publicise the show. Something that I think it just wonderful, more shows should do this like they do with films and having the actors talk about it. I would love to see more shows follow this lead to really get Theatre out more on prime chat shows!

Super exciting news broke last night that Broadway Legend Patti LuPone would be returning to London after a 25 year absence. I am such a huge fan and was lucky enough to get to see her in War Paint on my New York trip back in July. So to hear she was then going to be coming to London was very exciting. That also means I have already bought a ticket for October 2018. Yes, really.

Stage Door – Matthew Seadon-Young

Matthew Seadon-Young was Gerry Goffin three times when I saw Beautiful in the West End, I had the pleasure of meeting him at the stage door after the final show and he was lovely!

Stage Door – Ian McIntosh

Ian McIntosh was in Beautiful for the full run of the show, therefore I saw him in the role of Barry Mann the four times I attended! It was therefore lovely to meet him at the stage door after the final performance on Saturday night. He was brilliant with all of the fans at the stage door posing for photos and signing autographs!

Stage Door – Cassidy Janson

Since seeing Beautiful in October 2016, I have now seen it four times and that is without a doubt because of Cassidy Janson, although my timing was bad for the third time as she was on holiday.

Her performance of Carole King has absolutely blown me away with her amazing acting ability and that voice! The way she goes for it with the different songs is truly outstanding. So on closing night it was a true honour to get to meet her at the stage door and have her sign my programme and the photo below.
